Surface engineering provides one of the most important means of engineering product differentiation in terms of quality, performance, and lifecycle cost. It is essential to achieve predetermined functional properties of materials such as mechanical strength, biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and heat and oxidation resistance. Surface Engineering of Biomaterials addresses this topic across a diverse range of process technologies and healthcare applications. Introduces biomaterial surface science and surface engineering and includes criteria for biomaterial surface selectionFocuses on a broad array of materials including metals, ceramics, polymers, alloys, and compositesDiscusses corrosion, degradation, and material release issues in implant materialsCovers various processing routes to develop biomaterial surfaces, including for smart and energy applicationsDetails techniques for post-modification of biomaterial surfacesThis reference work helps researchers working at the intersection of materials science and biotechnology to engineer functional biomaterials for a variety of applications.
