  Nanocrystalline Silicon Carbide for Implants

  By N. Shah

  Abstract: Nanocrystalline silicon carbide (SiC) is a wannabe material for artificial heart valves fundamentally because of its low weight, high quality, intense hardness, wear resistance, latency (SiC does not respond with organic liquids), and disintegration resistance. Oxide clay materials, for example, alumina (Al2O3) and zirconia (ZrO2) are regularly utilized for restorative applications like inserts and prostheses due to their breathtaking biocompatibility and high wear resistance. Sadly, oxide earthenware production can't be …
