Claims17
An intraluminal balloon that comprises a composition comprising
- (a) at least one aliphatic polyketone;
- and
- (b) a thermoplastic polymer;
- wherein the at least one aliphatic polyketone is derived from monomers consisting of carbon monoxide and alpha olefins.

An intraluminal balloon that comprises a composition comprising
- (a) at least one aliphatic polyketone;
- (b) a coupling agent or a cross-linker;
- and further comprising
- (c) a thermoplastic polymer;
- wherein the at least one aliphatic polyketone is derived from monomers consisting of carbon monoxide and alpha olefins.
2 more elements
