Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:Polydimethylsiloxane, also known as PDMS, has been widely used in the biomedical industry because of its biocompatible material and its biomechanical behavior is similar to biological tissues, with applications in the study of aneurysmal behavior and devices such as: Micro pumps, optical systems, microfluidic circuits. Many advances in research have been reached, but further tests are still necessary to understand the mechanical behavior and applicability of the material. For the study of PDMS behavior, two different techniques are employed: numerical and experimental. In experimental studies, it is extremely popular to use a field technique, in which the most appropriate technique to measure the field displacement of PDMS, without decorrelation, is the Digital Image Correlation (DIC) method. In this paper, we revised the most important experimental works with PDMS material and, simultaneously, we present its mechanical properties and its biomedical applications.
