The project explores the use of carbon nanotubes as reinforcement in calcium phosphate ceramics for bone repair. It aims to enhance mechanical properties while maintaining bioactivity, and investigates their potential as drug delivery systems.
Calcium phosphate ceramics have been used in medicine for more than 20 years because of its similarities to bone apatite.
Bone repair and regeneration occurs along its surface and porous structures permits bone ingrowths acting as a scaffold in bony tissues sites.
As well as these ceramics, bioactive glasses and biocompatible polymers are widely used but all of them present low strength and poor fatigue resistance to be implanted as high load bearing devices.
In order to seek better ways of proc…
