This topical reference integrates knowledge of surface modification techniques with that of bone implant materials in a lucid and illustrative manner. The result is a fundamental understanding of the various techniques for load bearing implant applications, taking into consideration their effect on the bioactivity and biocompatibility of the implants. It provides an overview of numerous bio-implants and bio-devices as well as the materials used, while also discussing in detail such performance factors as their mechanical and corrosion behavior. Throughout, all important surface characterization techniques are evaluated so as to predict the performance of the implant biomaterials under in vivo conditions.
