Auxetic materials for bioprosthesis

I am interested to develop auxetic (negative poisson ratio materials) for bio prosthesis. What measures should I consider?

Auxetic materials is a Negative Poisson's . Negative Poisson's ratio effects can result from non-affine deformation, from certain chiral microstructures, on an atomic scale, or from structural hierarchy. Negative Poisson's ratio materials can exhibit slow decay of stress according to Saint-Venant's principle. Later writers have called such materials anti-rubber, auxetic (auxetics), or dilatational. These materials are an example of extremal materials. Combined foam animation shows normal and re-entrant foams together.
