(a) Mechanical responses of Tecoflex SG-85 A and thermobonded PCL (each n = 3) in the circumferential direction. (b) Tangential moduli of both materials at the maximum stretch ratio. The deformation of TPCL constructs was significantly lower than Tecoflex constructs in response to the same pressurization range (p = 0.039). No axial displacement was imposed during these tests, however, the axial loads measured during inflation were all below 0.02N.
