Short description:

Details latest bio-based composites, processing, and characterization for drug delivery and fixation devices. Introduces various bioresorbable polymers. Details materials like nanomaterials, chitosan and its derivatives, biopolymers, and their applications. Covers degradation of biomaterials and proposes mitigation solutions.

Long description:

Biomaterials have become an integral part of medicine today, helping in healing and restoring functionality in people with injury or disease, especially for bone implants and drug delivery systems. This has led to the development of polymers that are biocompatible, biodegradable, and/or resorbable. This new book presents the latest resesasrch on bio-based composites, processing, and characterization for drug delivery and fixation devices.


Key features:



  • Highlights the latest processing and characterization of the bioabsorbable composite materials

  • Outlines a broad range of different areas such as wound healing, craniofacial, maxillofacial, drug carriers, and fixation devices for orthopedic fixations

  • Discusses advanced techniques for the development of composites and biopolymer-based composites

  • Presents the latest developments in synthesis, preparation, characterization, mechanical evaluation, and future challenges of composite applications in drug delivery and fixation devices
