dimensionless ratio of water diffusion time to polymer bond cleavage time that predicts whether a degradable polymer erodes at its surface or through its bulk.

In biomedical engineering, erosion number refers to dimensionless ratio of water diffusion time to polymer bond cleavage time that predicts whether a degradable polymer erodes at its surface or through its bulk. This meaning comes from Burkersroda (2002) in Biomaterials.[1]
