Abstract
The invention provides biocompatible, corrosion-resistant prostheses and methods for producing these. A coating comprising a bismaleimide-triazine resin, a biocompatible plasticizer and optionally a thickener is applied to a prosthesis substrate and the resin is cured to provide a tightly adherent, biocompatible, corrosion-resistant coating. Radio-opaque materials, such as barium sulfate, may be included in the coating as well as bone ingrowth materials such as hydroxyapatite.
