author keywords: abrasion resistance; endovascular prosthesis; in vitro; metallic stent; graft fabric
MeSH headings : Alloys / chemistry; Biocompatible Materials; Blood Vessel Prosthesis; Endpoint Determination; Materials Testing / methods; Metals / chemistry; Microscopy, Electron, Scanning; Physical Phenomena; Polyesters; Prosthesis Design; Stents; Tensile Strength; Textiles
TL;DR: The results have shown that this test method is viable for testing the relative abrasion resistance of the components of endovascular stent grafts, and the multifilament polyester fabric had better abRasion resistance than the monofilamentpolyester fabric. (via Semantic Scholar)
