Water in Biomaterials Surface Science
Presents the latest ideas and research on molecular hydration and hydration forces, and how they determine the interaction between water molecules and biomaterials surfaces. Consisting of three sections; theoretical aspects, analytical aspects and practical applications, it begins by placing the properties of water in a proper molecular perspective.
The analytical aspects and practical applications offer a complete overview with new insights into the biomaterials/water interface by:
- Discussing the latest approaches to the characterization of water at interfaces and surface modification of biomaterials
- Examining the problems related to the understanding and characterization of interfacial water
- Providing new perspectives of the interfacial interactions between materials and the physiological aqueous environment
An invaluable resource for researchers in biomaterials surface science and the biotechnology industry.
