Rapid Prototyping of Biomaterials: Techniques in Additive Manufacturing

Rapid Prototyping of Biomaterials: Techniques in Additive Manufacturing, Second Edition provides a comprehensive review of emerging rapid prototyping technologies, such as bioprinting, for biomedical applications. Rapid prototyping, also known as additive manufacturing, solid freeform fabrication, or 3D printing, can be used to create complex structures and devices for medical applications from solid, powder or liquid precursors. Sections explore a variety of materials, look at applications, and consider the use of rapid prototyping technologies for constructing organs. With its distinguished editor and international team of renowned contributors, this book is a useful, technical resource for scientists and researchers in academia, biomaterials and tissue regeneration. Presents a comprehensive review of established and emerging additive manufacturing technologies (such as bioprinting) for medical applicationsContains chapters that explore the additive manufacturing of nanoscale biomaterials for a range of applications, from drug delivery, to organ printingIncludes new information on 3D printing on a variety of material classes INDICE: 1.
