Includes bibliographical references and index
Surface and biological characterization of biomaterials -- Stainless steels in orthopedics -- Co-Cr-based alloys -- Noble metal alloys for load-bearing implant applications -- Titanium alloys -- Biodegradable alloys -- Other metallic alloys : tantalum-based materials for biomedical applications -- Metallic glasses -- Metal oxide-based ceramics -- Calcium-based ceramic biomaterials -- Structural polymer biomaterials
Structural Biomaterials: Properties, Characteristics, and Selection serves as a single point of reference to digest current research and develop a deeper understanding in the field of biomaterials engineering. This book uses a materials-focused approach, allowing the reader to quickly access specific, detailed information on biomaterials characterization and selection. Relevant to a range of readers, this book provides holistic coverage of the broad categories of structural biomaterials currently available and used in medical applications, highlighting the property requirements for structural biomaterials, their biocompatibility performance and their safety regulation in key categories such as metals, ceramics and polymers. The materials science perspective of this text ensures the content is accessible even to those without an extensive background in applied medicine, positioning this text not just for students, but as an overview and reference for researchers, scientists and engineers entering the field from related materials science disciplines.
