Enhancement of the Biological and Mechanical Performances of Sintered Hydroxyapatite by Multiple Ions Doping
(Frontiers, 2020-07-28)
In the present work, hydroxyapatite (HA) nanoparticles doped with Mg2+, Sr2+, and Zn2+ ions are developed by wet neutralization method and then sintered at 1,250°C to obtain bulk consolidated materials. Physicochemical and ...
Assessment of the nano-mechanical properties of healthy and atherosclerotic coronary arteries by atomic force microscopy.
(Royal Society, 2024-02)
Nano-indentation techniques might be better equipped to assess the heterogeneous material properties of plaques than macroscopic methods but there are no bespoke protocols for this kind of material testing for coronary ...
Strong and Tough Silk for Resilient Attachment Discs: The Mechanical Properties of Piriform Silk in the SpiderCupiennius salei(Keyserling, 1877)
(Frontiers, 2020-06-10)
Spiders are able to produce different types of silk with different mechanical and biological properties. Piriform silk is produced to secure spiders and their webs to surfaces by using a nano-fibril network embedded in a ...
