- the produced film was punched into a JIS K7161-2 type1BA shape for use in a tensile tester.
- a decomposition test simulating the in-vivo environment was performed on the obtained test sample in accordance with ISO15814. Specifically, the sample was immersed in a phosphate buffer solution adjusted to pH 7.4, sealed, and incubated at a temperature of 37 ⁇ 1 ° C. for 12 weeks. After a lapse of a predetermined period, the sample was taken out, the presence or absence of change in appearance, and the tensile strength of the sample were evaluated using a tensile tester, and the results are shown in Table 3.
- Examples 6 to 8, Comparative Examples 2 to 3 As shown in Table 4 below, the pellets of the copolymers with different composition ratios were heat-pressed (10T, Toyo Seiki Seisakusho) at 140 ° C. and 10MPa, and the weight per unit area was 178g / m 2 and the thickness. A non-porous resin film having a size of 150 ⁇ m was prepared.
- the obtained film (length 10 mm, width 20 mm) was sterilized with ethylene oxide gas (EOG), wrapped around the dog's flexor tendon (elliptical column with a diameter of about 2-4 mm), and the films were sutured together. It was fixed to the tendon.
- EOG ethylene oxide gas
- those that could be wound without causing cracks, cracks, etc. were judged to be flexible, and the samples that could not be wound because the film was hard were judged to be inflexible, and the results are shown in the table below. Shown in 4.
- the present invention it is possible to prevent blood leakage and infiltration of living tissue in a living body for a certain period of time while suppressing impairing the flexibility of the base material constituting the conventionally used prosthetic material. Since it is possible to secure the barrier property of being able to do so, it is possible to provide a highly safe medical prosthetic material.
