Despite recent advances in medical devices using other materials, metallic implants are still one of the most commercially significant sectors of the industry. This publication will provide a comprehensive review of the use of metals in biomedical applications and recent advances in this important area. Chapters in part one provide readers with the fundamentals of metals within the industry. Part two discuses the mechanical behaviour, degradation and wear of metallic implants. Topics in part three cover processing methods and applications of metals within the medical implant industry, with chapters on coatings, sterilisation and new generation metallic biomaterials.
Key Features: reviews the latest techniques in metal processing methods including surface treatment and sterilisation; examines metal selection for biomedical devices considering biocompatibility of various metals; assesses mechanical behaviour and testing of metals featuring corrosion, fatigue and wear; discusses specific applications of metals highlighting a new generation of metallic biomaterials and technologies.
Contents: Part 1 General introduction: Overview of metals and biomedical applications; Metal selection for biomedical devices. Part 2 Mechanical behaviour, degradation and testing of metals for biomedical devices: Mechanical properties of metallic biomaterials; Corrosion of metallic biomaterials; Fatigue and failure of metallic biomaterials; Mechanical testing of metallic biomaterials; Wear testing of metallic biomaterials; Biocompatibility of metallic biomaterials. Part 3 Processing metals for biomedical applications: Forging metals and alloys for biomedical applications; Surface treatment of metallic biomaterials; Coatings for metallic biomaterials; Biocompatible polymer assembly on metal surfaces; Sterilisation and cleaning of metallic biomaterials. Part 4 Specific applications of metals for biomedical devices: Orthopaedic applications of metallic biomaterials; New generation metallic biomaterials; Degradable metallic biomaterials for cardiovascular applications.
