PDMS and DLC‐coated unidirectional valves for artificial urinary sphincters: Opening performance after 126 days of immersion in urine

In this work, unidirectional valves made of bare polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and PDMS provided with a micrometric diamond‐like carbon (DLC) coating were fabricated and characterized, in terms of surface properties and opening pressure. The valve performance was also tested over 1250 repeated cycles...
