Biodegradable Metals and Their Medical Applications

Biodegradable Metals and Their Medical Applications by Yufeng Zheng is an authoritative, accessible guide to the rapidly evolving world of biodegradable metallic implants. Ideal for clinicians, biomedical engineers, and researchers, this book decodes how next-generation materials—magnesium, zinc, and iron alloys—are transforming orthopedics, cardiovascular stents, and tissue engineering.

Discover practical insights into material design, corrosion behavior, biocompatibility, mechanical performance, and in vivo degradation. Zheng blends rigorous science with clinical relevance, explaining alloying strategies, surface treatments, manufacturing methods, and preclinical to clinical translation. Clear case studies illustrate real-world applications: fracture fixation devices that eliminate secondary surgery, resorbable vascular scaffolds, and scaffold-integrated regenerative approaches.

Engineered for both specialists and advanced students, the text balances foundational theory with applied guidance—helping device designers, regulatory professionals, and surgeons evaluate performance, safety, and long-term outcomes. It also covers standard testing protocols and regulatory pathways, making it a practical reference for product development and clinical adoption across North America, Europe, and the Asia‑Pacific region.

Whether you’re exploring biodegradable implants for research or seeking evidence-based options for patient care, this book equips you with the knowledge to make informed decisions. Clear illustrations, comparative analyses, and forward-looking perspectives on commercialization and clinical trends position this title as an essential resource for anyone involved in the biomedical materials field.
