Superficial modification of implants via the incorporation of biocompatible coatings is an
attractive option in biomedicine because of the positive attributes associated with bioactive …

Wollastonite was produced using solid-state reaction from limestone and silica sand.
Limestone containing a high percentage of CaO (55.10%) and silica sand with 99% SiO2 …

Because Al 2 O 3 exhibits high strength and hardness, it is prevalently used as a ceramic
material. ZrO 2 is often added to increase the toughness of such a material. Therefore, this …

The mechanical properties of carbide-derived carbons (CDCs) are computed using
molecular dynamics simulations, spanning the experimental density range and synthesis …

This paper reports the fabrication and characterization of Eu 3+/Nd 3+ co-doped phosphate
(PNE) glasses and glass–ceramics as a function of Eu 3+ concentration. The precursor …

Cell-free translational strategies are needed to accelerate the repair of mineralised tissues,
particularly large bone defects, using minimally invasive approaches. Regenerative bone …

Metal ions function in numerous metalloenzymes, are incorporated into pharmaceuticals
and imaging agents. Several target specific radiopharmaceuticals based on radiometals for …

For the first time, this work purposes a novel composite production from alumina-toughened
zirconia titanium diboride (ATZ-TiB 2). In designing the composites, the matrix was …

Spinel phase aluminum oxynitride solid solution (γ-alon, with formula of Al (8+ x)/3 O 4− x N
x) exists in the narrow Al 2 O 3-rich region of Al 2 O 3-AlN systems. The first-principles …

Zirconia-based bioceramics are one of the most attractive class of biomaterials due to their
excellent properties. In the present study, a novel approach was applied for the fabrication of …
