Definitions

• This invention relates to a biocompatible polymer containing the copolymerization product of a mixture of hydrophobic and hydrophilic acrylic and/or allelic monomers, and telo-collagen preliminarily purified from glucoproteins and proteoglucanes.

• Polyenic water-solvent ionic monomers may be used in order to produce a water-solvent layer.
• this decreases the resistance of such copolymers against swelling.
• the system of polyenic copolymers, based upon acrylamid or acrylic acid with HEMA has a tendency towards excessive swelling beyond all bounds.
