Embodiment 1
[0075] Example 1: A first plastically deformable material that can be used in an implantable catheter
[0076] Figure 7A A stress / strain curve is depicted for a first plastically deformable material that can be used to make a plastically deformable and implantable catheter. The material has an average yield strength of about 2.1 MPa and an ultimate tensile strength of about 5 MPa. The material also exhibits elastic deformation at yield strength, characterized by an average elastic modulus of about 5.9 MPa. In the portion of the stress / strain curve where the material transitions from an elastically deformable mode to a plastically deformable mode, the material exhibits an elongation of an average of 36% over the original length at the yield stress point. Since the extended region of the stress / strain curve indicates plastic deformability as opposed to elastic deformability, such materials may advantageously be used in plastically deformable catheters that can expand to mee...
Embodiment 2
[0077] Example 2: Second plastically deformable material that can be used in implantable catheters
[0078] Figure 7B A stress / strain curve is depicted for a second plastically deformable material that can be used to make a plastically deformable and implantable catheter. The material exhibited an average yield strength of about 1.7 MPa and an ultimate tensile strength of about 5.5 MPa. The material is also elastically deformable at yield strength, characterized by an average elastic modulus of about 7.4 MPa. In the portion of the stress / strain curve where the material transitions from an elastically deformable mode to a plastically deformable mode, the material exhibits an elongation of an average of 24% over the original length at the yield stress point. Since the extended region of the stress / strain curve indicates plastic deformability as opposed to elastic deformability, such materials may advantageously be used in plastically deformable catheters that can expand to ...
