Introduction To Bioceramics, An (2nd Edition)
This is the second edition of the classic book An Introduction to Bioceramics which provides a comprehensive overview of all types of ceramic and glass materials that are used in medicine and dentistry. The enormous growth of the field of bioceramics is due to the recognition by the medical and dental community of the importance of bioactive materials to stimulate repair and regeneration of tissues. This edition includes 21 new chapters that document the science and especially the clinical applications of the new generation of bioceramics in the field of tissue regeneration and repair. Important socioeconomic factors influencing the economics and availability of new medical treatments are co...
Biomaterials, Artificial Organs and Tissue Engineering
Maintaining quality of life in an ageing population is one of the great challenges of the 21st Century. This book summarises how this challenge is being met by multi-disciplinary developments of specialty biomaterials, devices, artificial organs and in-vitro growth of human cells as tissue engineered constructs.Biomaterials, Artificial Organs and Tissue Engineering is intended for use as a textbook in a one semester course for upper level BS, MS and Meng students. The 25 chapters are organized in five parts: Part one provides an introduction to living and man-made materials for the non-specialist; Part two is an overview of clinical applications of various biomaterials and devices; Part thre...

Principles of Electronic Ceramics
A modern introduction to the physical principles of electronic ceramic materials. Describes theory in structural terms via the language of quantum mechanics and statistical mechanics, bridging the gap between purely theoretical solid-state texts and strictly applied materials science texts. Most of the equations employed are derived from first principles. Each chapter describes the relevant properties of the materials covered, presents applications of the theory, and includes a graded set of problems (some to be done on a computer). Adopts the convention of the American Ceramic Society. Contains tables and figures.
Materials Science and Engineering
This book is a record of the conference entitled Materials Science and Engineering: Its Nucleation and Growth held at Imperial College on 14 and 15 May 2001 as one of the events held to mark the 150th Anniversary of the founding of the Royal School of Mines (RSM).
Ceramic Processing Before Firing
Provides a systematic scientific basis for understanding and controlling the processing of powders and ceramic bodies. Applies a wide range of analytical tools for characterizing agglomerate features throughout the processing steps. Contains electron and optical micrographs and discusses the improvement of product reliability, reduction of costs, and energy and environmental concerns.
Bioceramics: Materials and Applications IV
The content from these proceedings comes from a symposium honoring Larry Hench, a pioneer in the field of bioceramics. Prof. Hench has condensed his Sosman Lecture into the keynote paper of this volume. In addition, this proceedings draws together research in the different aspects of bioceramics and illustrates its unifying themes. Apatites and active bone substitute materials are well represented, with extended analyses of processing effects and variations in making these materials more functional. Included in this volume are a series of papers on interactions between ceramics and biological environments with some much needed analysis of why ceramics succeed or don't in vivo. Proceedings of a symposium to honor Larry Hench at the 105th annual meeting of The American Ceramic Society, April 27-30, 2003, in Nashville, Tennessee; Ceramic Transactions, Volume 147.
Fundamentals of Refractory Technology
This updated reprint provides up-to-date information on refractories technology presented by recognized experts in the field. Produced from focused sessions of two Refractory Ceramics Division meetings, refractory scientists from around the world were invited to provide overviews of the scientific principles related to refractory manufacturing and performance. The result is this informative volume and a current view of the Fundamentals of Refractory Technology. Proceedings of the Lecture Series presented at the 101st and 102nd Annual Meetings held April 25-28, 1999, in Indiana and April 30-May 3, 2000, in Missouri; Ceramics Transactions, Volume 125.
Developments in Porous, Biological and Geopolymer Ceramics, Volume 28, Issue 9
Papers from The American Ceramic Society's 31st International Conference on Advanced Ceramics and Composites, held in Daytona Beach, Florida, January 21-26, 2007. Includes papers on porous ceramics ranging from nanoporous to macroporous systems, including foams, honeycombs, 3D scaffolds, interconnected fibers, sintered hollow spheres, and aerogels; ceramics in medical applications; and geopolymers, a new class of totally inorganic, aluminosilicate-based ceramics that are charge balanced by group I oxides (i.e., Na, K, and Cs)
Ultrastructure Processing of Ceramics, Glasses, and Composites
A presentation of the proceedings and papers of the International Conference, this volume examines the state of the science of producing ceramic, glass, and composite materials using the new methods of chemical micromorphology, and transformation based processing, along with practical applications. Discusses the potential for producing materials with unique properties and the possibility of controlling long-term reliability.
