Nanobioceramics For Healthcare Applications, Hardback Book

Nanobioceramics For Healthcare Applications Hardback

Edited by Eng San (Nus, S'pore) Thian, Jie (Univ College London, Uk) Huang, Mamoru (Meiji Univ, Japan) Aizawa

Hardback

Description

This book provides a comprehensive coverage on nanobioceramics and their potential applications in healthcare. Ground-breaking new discoveries in bioceramics and their properties have meant an increasing interest in the development of how this can be related to nanobiomaterials, and in treating various conditions from osteoporosis to surgical dentistry.

Research has also been driven by ageing global populations, where better restorative and reparative treatments are needed.

As a consequence of this change in demographics, the research of nanobioceramics for application in healthcare is a field that is advancing at a considerable pace.Individual chapters give the reader an in-depth coverage on the synthesis and characterization of various nanobioceramics including silica, calcium phosphates, bioglass, and glass-ceramics.

Through reviewing and analysing current literature, this book provides a rich source of valuable information on nanobioceramics for any professionals and students in materials science and engineering.

It is also aimed at medical professionals searching for state-of-the-art techniques and treatments available and made possible through this particular field of innovation.
