Heating bioabsorbable fracture fixation plates to above their glass transition temperature renders them temporarily malleable, thus facilitating their adaptation to the underlying bone geometry, although the consequence of heating is not well understood. Poly (L-lactide-co-glycolide) copolymer specimens were heated under various conditions, and the effects on specimen mechanics were assessed. Heating temporarily increased toughness while slight reducing flexural modulus. No lasting effects on in vitro material degradation were seen.
