Deformable Biomaterials Based on Ultralong Hydroxyapatite Nanowires

Hydroxyapatite (HAP) biomaterials with high biocompatibility, bioactivity, and osteoconductivity/osteoinductivity have many applications in the biomedical fields. The traditional HAP materials usually feature high brittleness. Although hybridizing HAP with polymers can obtain deformable materials, their deformability is mainly contributed by polymers. Recently, research progress has been made in the deformable HAP biomaterials with high...
