Abstract:
Carbon/carbon composites have excellent biocompatibility with human hard tissue and elasticity modulus similar with that of human bones, which endow them great potential applications in substitution for human loaded bones. The current research situations and applications of carbon/carbon composites in human loaded bones are reviewed. The coating technologies of bioactive layers on carbon/carbon composites are discussed. The problems to be solved and the prospects of carbon/carbon composites in human loaded bones are analyzed and predicted. It is believed that bioactive layers coating on carbon/carbon composites should play an important role in human loaded bones.
