(author), Zhou, J. (author)The treatment of femoral nonunion with large segmental bone defect is still challenging. Although magnesium alloys have been considered potential materials for such a treatment, their application is limited by their fast degradation. Adding bioceramic particles into magnesium to form Mg-matrix composites is a promising strategy to adjust...journal article 2022

Naddaf Dezfuli, S. (author), Huan, Z. (author), Mol, J.M.C. (author), Leeflang, M.A. (author), Chang, Jiang (author), Zhou, J. (author)The present research was aimed at developing magnesium-matrix composites that could allow effective control over their physiochemical and mechanical responses when in contact with physiological solutions. A biodegradable, bioactive ceramic - bredigite was chosen as the reinforcing phase in the composites, based on the hypothesis that the...journal article 2017
