| Abstract: | While reaction-diffusion processes are utilized in multiple scientific fields, these phenomena have seen limited practical application in the polymer industry. Although self-regulating processes driven by parallel reaction and diffusion can lead to patterned structures, most polymeric products with repeating subunits are still prepared by methods that require complex and expensive instrumentation. A notable, high-added-value example is surgical mesh, which is often manufactured by weaving or knitting. In our present work, we demonstrate how the polymer and the biomedical industry can benefit from the pattern-forming capabilities of reaction-diffusion. We would like to propose a self-regulating method that facilitates the creation of surgical meshes from biocompatible polymers. Since the control of the process assumes a thorough understanding of the underlying phenomena, the theoretical background, as well as a mathematical model that can accurately describe the empirical data, is also introduced and explained. Our method offers the benefits of conventional techniques while introducing additional advantages not attainable with them. Most importantly, the method proposed in this paper enables the rapid creation of meshes with an average pore size that can be adjusted easily and tailored to fit the intended area of application.
