investigation of ZnO/ poly(vinylidene) fluoride nanocomposites for orthopedic applications with improved mechanical, piezoelectric, and antimicrobial properties
Many studies have shown that piezoelectric materials can be used as bioactively charged surfaces to enhance cell functions and result in tissue regeneration (such as nerve injury repair, bone formation, wound healing, and more). Poly(vinylidene) fluoride (PVDF) and zinc oxide (ZnO) are regarded as p...
