Hydroxyapatite (HAP) has been considered to be one of the most preferred scaffold
materials among many in the last decade for the bone tissue engineering. Be it prosthetic …

Thin films have emerged as an ideal surface treatment to the permanent implant materials to
enhance properties such as biodegradation resistance, better mechanical strengths and …

Implants and surgical tools are commonly used in the medical field. However, issues
including poor osseointegration, rejection, or bacterial contamination may still occasionally …

Amorphous thin film metallic glasses (TFMGs) have given rise to a widespread research
interest due to their technological promise for practical applications and scientific importance …

Materials with a disordered atomic structure, often termed glassy materials, are the focus of
extensive research due to the possibility of achieving remarkable mechanical …

In the present study, the sputtering process deposited tantalum oxide thin film onto AZ31B
alloy, and the biocompatibility and degradation resistance were evaluated. The phase …

CuGaO2 thin films were deposited using the RF magnetron sputtering technique using
Cu2O and Ga2O3 targets. The films were deposited at room temperature onto a quartz slide …

Biodegradable magnesium (Mg) based implants have considerable interest in the
biomedical field as their use nullifies the necessity for implant removal surgery and avoids …

In this study, corrosion resistance of TiZrN-coated additively manufactured (3D-printed) 8620
steel has been separately studied in a 60–40 wt% NaNO3+ KNO3 molten salt and in an …

Abstract Zr–Co–Cu–Al based metallic glasses (MGs) are potential material for making
surgical equipment due to their ultra-high strength. However, presence of elemental Al in …
