A balloon formed of a single layer of polybutylene terephthalate and polytetramethylene ether glycol terephthalate copolymer in a substantially unblended form. The copolymer has flexural modulus of greater than about 150,000 psi. The presently preferred copolymer is Hytrel® 8238 by DuPont. The balloon of the invention would be substantially unblended, defined as greater than about 60 % by weight to about 100 % by weight of the copolymer. The balloon is formed in a series of molds. The balloon of the invention exhibits high rupture pressure and low compliance coupled with good lesion cross and recross ability.

L'invention concerne un ballonnet formé à partir d'une seule couche de polybutylène téréphthalate et de copolymère polytétraméthylène éther glycol téréphthalate sous une forme essentiellement non-mélangée. Le copolymère présente un module d'élasticité en flexion supérieur à environ 150,000 psi. Le copolymère décrit dans la présente invention est le Hytrel® 8238 de DuPont. Le ballonnet décrit dans l'invention est, essentiellement, non mélangé, et présente plus de 60 % en poids à 100 % en poids environ du copolymère. Ledit ballonnet est formé dans une série de moules. Le ballonnet décrit dans cette invention présente, d'une part, une pression de rupture élevée et une compliance basse et, d'autre part, une bonne aptitude à traverser et à retraverser une lésion.
