Biocomposites are widely used in the medical industry to repair and restore bone, tooth, cartilage skin and other tissues. Biomedical composites, provides a thorough review of the current status, recent progress and future trends in composites for biomedical applications. This new edition of Biomedical composites provides revised, expanded and updated content, suitable for those active in the biomaterials and bioengineering field. Three new chapters cover modelling of biocomposites, 3D printing of customized scaffolds and constructs and regulatory issues. Chapters from the first edition have been revised in order to provide up-to-date, comprehensive coverage of developments in the field. Part one discusses the fundamentals of biocomposites. Part two details a wide range of applications of biocomposites. Chapters in part three discuss the biocompatibility, mechanical behaviour and failure of biocomposites whilst the final section looks at the future for biocomposites. Professor Luigi Ambrosio is the Director of the Institute for Composite and Biomedical Materials, Italy. He is a renowned scientist with expertise in biomedical composites and has published over 150 papers in international scientific journals and books, 16 patents, and over 250 presentations at international and national conferences. Led by an expert editor with many years’ experience in academia and widely recognized as an international expert on biomedical composites. Features an overview of biocomposites for a wide range of biomedical applications.Provides revised, expanded and updated coverage compared the first edition, including three new chapters.
