US Patent Issued to Poly-Med on Aug. 26 for "Thermally and dimensionally stabilized electrospun compositions and methods of making same" (South Carolina Inventors)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., Aug. 26 -- United States Patent no. 12,398,489, issued on Aug. 26, was assigned to Poly-Med Inc. (Anderson, S.C.).

"Thermally and dimensionally stabilized electrospun compositions and methods of making same" was invented by Michael Scott Taylor (Anderson, S.C.) and Seth Dylan McCullen (Greenville, S.C.).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "Thermally stable absorbable fiber populations, i.e. fiber populations that do not undergo thermally induced crystallization, can be intermixed with thermally unstable fibers to yield a stabilizing effect without altering morphological properties of a fiber system. Via this, one may minimize thermally induced shrinkage and maintain physical propert...
