The present invention relates to supramolecular biomedical polymers comprising quadruple hydrogen bonding units and to a process for preparing such a supramolecular biomedical polymer and porous biomedical implants thereof. The supramolecular biomedical polymers are particularly suitable for the production of porous biomedical implants that need high strength, elasticity, durability, and slow biodegradation, e.g. medical implants for living tissue regeneration within a mammal, such as the treatment of cardio-vascular diseases, medical prolapses, and hernias. |
