BME 295-03 and BME 300-01 Composites and Biomaterials
We start with a presentation of general composites concepts of specific properties, fiber reinforcement, and methods of processing. We then use the liquid molding process to introduce some of the important issues and tradeoffs inherent in producing composites for various industries. This year, we will introduce several biomaterials, both natural and synthetic, in the context of composites. Important types of synthetic biomaterial composites include tissue scaffolds, bone cements, and dental reconstructions. Chemical reaction mechanisms in the polymeric component of the composite will be described and discussed for several applications ranging from the high volume automotive industry to one of a kind biomedical implants.
