Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hydroxyapatite, (HAP), a calcium phosphate bioceramic material, has been widely used in both dentistry and orthopedics due to its biocompatibility and osteoconductivity. However, its poor bulk mechanical properties have limited its use as load bearing material. An effective approach to solve this problem is to form a composite coating of HAP and titanium, in which titanium will be the matrix and HAP will act as reinforcement. In this research, two novel approaches, namely cold gas dynamic spraying (CGDS) and argon atmosphere plasma spraying (AAPS), were applied to manufacture HAP/Ti composite coatings. The aim was to produce thick and dense deposits and investigate the mechanical, electrochemical and incubation behavior of such biocomposites as potential load bearing materials for biomedical applications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a thorough discussion of the physics, biology, chemistry and medicinal science behind a new and important area of materials science and engineering: polymer nanocomposites. The tremendous opportunities of polymer nanocomposites in the biomedical field arise from their multitude of applications and their ability to satisfy the vastly different functional requirements for each of these applications. In the biomedical field, a polymer nanocomposite system must meet certain design and functional criteria, including biocompatibility, biodegradability, mechanical properties, and, in some cases, aesthetic demands. The content of this book builds on what has been learnt in elementary courses about synthesising polymers, different nanoparticles, polymer composites, biomedical requirements, uses of polymer nanocomposites in medicine as well as medical devices and the major mechanisms involved during each application. The impact of hybrid nanofillers and synergistic composite mixtures which are used extensively or show promising outcomes in the biomedical field are also discussed. These novel materials vary from inorganic/ceramic-reinforced nanocomposites for mechanical property improvement to peptide-based nanomaterials, with the chemistry designed to render the entire material biocompatible.

Download or read book Investigating the Potential to Control the Morphology of Hydroxyapatite Via Micrometer Scale Molding and Casting Techniques written by Ryan Johnson and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hydroxyapatite (HAp) is an essential biomedical material. HAp's shaping is an important topic in the area of implantology and scaffolding. This project took a novel and unique approach in attempting to to control the morphology of materials without varying parameters such as pH levels, types of solvents, pressure and reaction time. Present work studied the feasibility of controlling the morphology of hydroxyapatite (HAp), with micrometer scale molding and casting. Emphasis was placed on HAp cylinders and cubes of micrometer size. First, cylindrically shaped cavities were patterned and etched with photolithography methods and reactive ion etching techniques on a Si substrate. Cavities were filled with slurry of deionized water, commercially purchased HAp powder, and Darvan 811 dispersant. Samples were successfully sintered at 1250°C. The obtained samples resembled the cylindrical cavities they were caste in. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to characterize the size and shape of sintered samples. This technique demonstrates great potential in forming large amounts of homogeneously shaped samples of HAp or similar ceramics for prospective biomedical applications.
