Nature-inspired calcium phosphate coatings : present status and novel advances in the science of mimicry
| Resumo: | There has been a growing awareness in materials science that the adaptation of nature biological processes can lead to significant progresses in the controlled fabrication of advanced materials for an all range of applications. To learn from, understand and apply these natural processes for producing calcium phosphate coatings that are biologically similar to bone apatite, mimicking its properties, has driven the attention of many researchers in recent years. This article reviews the most relevant advances in this emerging research field, pointing out several approaches being introduced and explored by distinct laboratories. |
