Abstract
This invention relates to materials for medical or veterinary use that possess considerably improved properties with regard to friction. The invention also relates to the production of such materials from existing materials that possess suitable bulk properties, but inappropriate frictional properties.
This invention also relates to a hydrophilic coating material that provides improved frictional properties.
This invention also relates to a hydrophilic coating material that provides improved frictional properties.
