1. What is Dacron and why is it used for stent coverings? Dacron (polyester) is known for its strength, durability, and biocompatibility. It's commonly utilized in vascular grafts and stent coverings due to its excellent sealing properties and ability to promote tissue ingrowth. 2. What are the benefits of using Dacron fabric on stents? Offers high mechanical strength and resistance to tearing. Its porosity encourages tissue integration, minimizing migration risks. Demonstrat

1. What is ePTFE and why is it important in medical devices? Expanded Polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) is a biocompatible fluoropolymer with a microporous structure. It offers excellent chemical resistance, flexibility, and controlled porosity, making it ideal for vascular and neurovascular implants. Its ability to minimize thrombogenicity and allow tissue ingrowth while maintaining structural integrity is why it’s widely used in stent-grafts, heart valves, and endovascular co
