A bone-like composite developed at EPFL uses naturally occurring enzymes to accelerate mineralization through an energy-efficient, room-temperature process. The strong, lightweight material shows ...
Nanohydroxyapatite is porous and its properties resemble those of natural bone-forming scaffolds. But, its brittleness makes it unsuitable for replacing worn-out load-bearing bone joints. The ...
