Abstract:
Polylactic acid (PLA) and its copolymer are biodegradable polymer materials which are widely used in the medical field because of their excellent mechanical properties, chemical stability, good biocompatibility, and biodegradability. In this paper, research advances in the study on polylactic acid and its application in vascular stent are discussed.
