Process for manufacturing a stationary state of crystalline polymer of a biodegradable polymer matrix carrying an active substance and a polymer matrix produced thereby
A method for manufacturing a stationary state of polymer crystallinity of an active substance charged polylactide matrix for a stent, comprising the steps of: preparing the active substance charged polylactide matrix containing (a) a polylactide in amorphous or semicrystalline modification or with amorphous domains, and (b) at least one active substance on a surface or in a cavity of the stent communicating with the surface and heating of the active substance charged polylactide matrix to a temperature ranging from TG-20° C. to TS-10° C., where TG represents a glass transition temperature and TS a melting temperature of the crystallites of the polylactide.
