Our recent paper published in ACS Appl. Mater. Interfaces featured in CeramTech Today

The platform “CeramTech Today” of the American Ceramic Society includes in its April 17, 2018 edition a note on our recent paper entitled: “Electric Field-Assisted Orientation of Short Phosphate Glass Fibers on Stainless Steel for Biomedical Applications” published in ACS Appl. Mater. Interfaces vol. 10 (2018) pp 11529–11538 [1]. The article featuring comments by Prof. Aldo R. Boccaccini, corresponding author of the paper, can be read here. The paper was written in collaboration with Dr. Qiang Chen (School of Life Sciences, Northwestern Polytechnical University, Xi’an, China), alumni of our Institute (PhD, 2015), Prof. Tingli Lu, and co-authors. The results confirmed electrophoretic deposition as a powerful method to develop textured fibrous surfaces for biomedical implants. This international collaboration involved also Dr. Ifty Ahmed, University of Nottingham, UK, an expert in phosphate glass fibre technology.
