Opis

With a bonelike structure that promotes osseointegration, hydroxyapatite (HA) coating can be applied to otherwise bioinactive implants to make their surface bioactive, thus achieving faster healing and recovery. This book explores developments in the processing and property characterization and applications of hydroxyapatite, providing a timely resource for active researchers and newcomers to the field. HA experts from the United States, Japan, Singapore, and China present valuable insights on topics ranging from deposition processes to applications in orthopedic and dental implants and drug delivery.
