ABSTRACT:
The present claims are directed to a tipped surgical suture and a solventless method for making a tipped suture comprising a suture coated with 6-30 weight percent, based on the total weight of the tipped region of the suture, of a bioresorbable aliphatic polyester copolymer which itself comprises from 70-100 mole % of e-caprolactone repeating units or from 80-100 mole % of trimethylene carbonate repeating units, the remainder of repeating units in the copolymer comprising a plurality of lactide, 1,4-dioxan-2-one, 1,4-dioxepan-2-one units.
