SI Volume 10 Issue 4/5
The 4-5 issue of 2022 includes the Invited Feature Article and seven Original Research papers on a broad variety of topics. Hope you will find research inspirations after reading the following papers: Triboinformatics: machine learning algorithms and data topology methods … Read More »Zn Biomaterials Processing
Zn-based alloys are potential candidates for bioabsorbable metallic devices due to their ideal corrosion rates and biocompatibility. However, strain softening and rate sensitivity in tensile testing remain as challenges for their use in load bearing applications. In our new studies … Read More »Biocompatibility of Zn-Ag Alloys
Our internal collaborators from Biomedical Engineering, together with collaborators from Mayo Clinic, were instrumental in preparation and publishing of a new report on biocompatibility of Zn-based materials. The paper entitled Improved Biocompatibility of Zn-Ag-based Stent Materials by Thermal Processing was … Read More » |
Bioabsorbable Stents We search for new biodegradable alloys that could revolutionize cardiovascular stent industry. |
 |
Antibacterial Materials We invented new inexpensive antibacterial material and explore its potential applications in water filtration, food packaging, and many others. |
 |
RHX Ceramic Dating We study the rates of rehydration and rehydroxylation processes for fired clay-based ceramics as a tool for dating ceramic archeological artifacts. |
 |
Smart Surfaces We architecture nanostructures, nanotubes, and molecular layers to control wetting or other properties of surfaces. |
 |
Mineral and Materials Processing We have a long tradition of development and testing physical separation technologies for selective recovery of minerals from ores, plastics from waste, and cellulose fibers from wastepaper. |
