Abstract Scope |
Amorphous metals and multi-principal alloys have remarkable properties such as excellent wear resistance, superior corrosion resistance under physiological conditions, high strength, and tunable stiffness that make them attractive for next generation bio-implant applications. In addition, the surface of these alloys may be textured to achieve favorable topography for enhancing cell-implant interaction. The favorable surface conditions mediate protein adsorption and biological response to these implant surfaces. Recent results on surface engineering of these alloys will be presented which may promote faster wound healing and tissue regeneration. |
