Inter‐Crystal Spacing of Implantable Polymeric Surfaces as a Key Suppressor of Microbial Adhesion.
Small, EarlyView.Biofilm formation on implantable devices is addressed by controlling inter‐crystal spacing in shape memory polymers. Repeated shape recovery aligns and enlarges crystalline phases and reduces amorphous regions, enhancing bacterial repellency. Three biofilm‐forming bacteria show reduced adhesion, and a one‐year dog bile‐duct model maintains function ...
