Title:

Degradable Amorphous Alloy Coatings by Sputtering for Bioimplants
Value Proposition:

Biodegradable amorphous alloy thin films with enhanced biomineralization.

 
Summary Application:

Coatings for short term implants/ Elimination of secondary surgery.
Advantages:
  • No hazardous is found to be released to the environment as it is a vacuum operation; Eco-friendly technique

  • Lower Young’s modulus  (comparable to that of  bone)

  •  Better hemocompatability

  • Attachment of bacteria on amorphous alloy coatings was found to be very minimum

  • Non cytotoxic in nature

  • Bio degradable and biocompatible

  • Elimination of secondary surgery.
