Polydimethylsiloxane and poly(ether) ether ketone functionally graded composites for biomedical applications

Functionally graded materials (FGMs), with varying spatial, chemical and mechanical gradients (continuous or stepwise), have the potential to mimic heterogenous properties found across biological tissues. They can prevent stress concentrations and retain healthy cellular functions. Here, we show for...
