ABSTRACT ELASTOMERIC SURGICAL SUTURES COMPRISING SEGMENTED COPOLYETHER/ESTERS Elastomeric monofilament surgical sutures are character- ized by the following combination of mechanical proper- ties: Yield elongation - from about 2 to 9 percent Visco-elastic elongation - from about 10 to 30 percent Young's modulus - from about 30,000 to 200,000 psi Tensile strength - at least about 40,000 psi Knot strength - at least about 30,000 psi The sutures are soft and flexible with superior knot tying and knot security properties. The sutures may be prepared from selected elastomeric copolyether/ester polymers which may be melt extruded and drawn to obtain the desired fiber properties.
