| Summary |
Mimicking the structure of calcified tissues and addressing the limitations of the individual materials, development of organic-inorganic hybrid biomaterials provides excellentpossibilitiesfor improvingconventionalbone implants. Suitablebiocomposites of tailoredphysical, biological, and mechanical propertieswiththepredictabledegradation behaviorcan bepreparedcombining biologically relevant CaPO4with bioresorbable polymers. This workpresents a brief history and advances in the field of CaPO4/ /polymer biocomposites and hybrid biomaterials suitable for biomedical application |
