    Abstract: A method for preparing optical quality, thin films of rigid-rod polymers and co-polymers, as well as blends of such polymers or co-polymers with flexible coil-like aromatic heterocyclic polymers and co-polymers which comprises(a) preparing a solution of the rigid-rod polymer or co-polymer or blend in a suitable solvent;(b) forming a film from the solution;(c) exposing the film to a non-solvent vapor for about 1 to 5 minutes per micron thickness in the finished film; and(d) coagulating the film in a non-solvent.This method can be employed to prepare films of high nonlinear optical susceptibility for electro-optical device applications. Because of their thermal stability, mechanical strength and chemical resistance, films prepared according to this method can also be used as filters and separation membranes.

    Abstract: Resorbable multifilament yarns and monofilament fibers including poly-4-hydroxybutyrate and copolymers thereof with high tenacity or high tensile strength have been developed. The yarns and fibers are produced by cold drawing the multifilament yarns and monofilament fibers before hot drawing the yarns and fibers under tension at temperatures above the melt temperature of the polymer or copolymer. These yarns and fibers have prolonged strength retention in vivo making them suitable for soft tissue repairs where high strength and strength retention is required. The multifilament yarns have tenacities higher than 8.1 grams per denier, and in vivo, retain at least 65% of their initial strength at 2 weeks. The monofilament fibers retain at least 50% of their initial strength at 4 weeks in vivo. The monofilament fibers have tensile strengths higher than 500 MPa. These yarns and fibers may be used to make various medical devices for various applications.
