Polysiloxanes are the most studied inorganic and semi-inorganic
polymers because of their many medical and commercial uses. The
Si-O backbone endows polysiloxanes with intriguing properties: the
strength of the Si-O bond imparts considerable thermal stability,
and the nature of the bonding imparts low surface free energy.
Prostheses, artificial organs, objects for facial reconstruction,
vitreous substitutes in the eyes, and tubing take advantage of the
stability and pliability of polysiloxanes. Artificial skin, contact
lenses, and drug delivery systems utilize their high permeability.
Such biomedical applications have led to biocompatability studies
on the interactions of polysiloxanes with proteins, and there has
been interest in modifying these materials to improve their
suitability for general biomedical application. Polysiloxanes
examines novel aspects of polysiloxane science and engineering,
including properties, work in progress, and important unsolved
problems. The volume, with ten comprehensive chapters, examines the
history, preparatin and analysis, synthesis, characterization, and
applications of these polymeric materials.
