A biomaterial is “a material intended to interface with biological systems to evaluate, treat, augment or replace any tissue, organ or function of the body”
Biocompatibility — The ability of a material to perform with an appropriate host response in a specific application Host Response — The response of the host organism (local and systemic) to the implanted material or device.

The REPIPHYSIS® works by inserting an expandable implant made from titanium in an aerospace polymer into the child’s healthy bone, after which standard recovery and rehabilitation are expected. However, instead of undergoing repeated surgeries to extend the bone, the REPIPHYSIS® uses an electromagnetic field to slowly lengthen the implant internally.

An orthopedic hip implant, exhibiting the use of all three classes of biomaterials: metals, ceramics and polymers. In this case, the stem, which is implanted in the femur, is made with a metallic biomaterial. The implant may be coated with a ceramic to improve attachment to the bone, or a polymeric cement. At the top of the hip stem is a ball (metal or ceramic) that works in conjunction with the corresponding socket to facilitate motion in the joint. The corresponding inner socket is made ot of either a polymer (for a metallic ball) or ceramic (for a ceramic ball) and attached to the pelvis by a metallic socket.

Potential Problems:•High resistance in filter leads to high blood pressure
•Low oxygenation efficiency

• Polymers fall into three categories:– Elastomers (e.g. rubber bands)– Composites
– Hydrogels (absorb/retain H2O)
Polymers
• Polymers may be natural or synthetic– Natural polymers are derived from sources
within the body: collegen, fibrin, hyaluronic acid (from carbohydrates), or outside: chitostan (from spider exoskeletons) or alginate (from seaweed)
– Chitostan & alginate are used as wound dressings
Polymers: many repeating parts

Advantages & Disadvantages of Natural Polymers
Advantages:
Chemical composition similar to material they are replacing: easily integrated into host and modifiable
Disadvantages:
•Difficult to find in quantity
•Low mechanical properties
•Non-assurance of pathogen removal
•May be recognized as foreign by immune system
MSE-536
Advantages & Disadvantages of Synthetic Polymers
Advantages:
•Easily mass produced and sterilized
•Can tailor physical, chemical, mechanical and degradative properties
Disadvantages:
•Do not interact with tissue in an active manner, thus cannot direct or aid in healing around implant site
•Few have been approved by FDA

Biomaterial Processing
Techniques developed to change surface chemistry while leaving bulk material unchanged; e.g.:
•ceramic coatings on hips,
•coating a catheter with antibiotics
MSE-536
Important Properties
Interaction between material & host
•Degradative: affected by the shape, size, and bulk chemical, physical and mechanical properties
•Corrosion: pH
•Surface properties: biological response affected by proteins adsorbed to surface. Surface chemistry affects adsorption
Important Biomaterial Property: Wetting
Wetting is a measure of a fluid’s ability to spread out on a solid substrate
Hydrophobicity is a measure of a materials attraction to water. If it is hydrophobic it is
“water fearing” and does not wet; if it is hydrophilic it is attracted to water and spreads
The Chemistry of MaterialsThe Bohr atomic model, which separates the atom into a nucleus (containing protons and neutrons) and orbiting electrons. For an electrically neutral atom, the positive charge of the nucleus is balanced by an equal number of electrons. In this model, electrons are depicted as orbiting the nucleus in discrete energy states, or orbitals, which are separated by a finite amount of energy.
The energy an electron looses by moving from an outer to an inner shell is released as a photon, with energy
E = h
The distribution of the hydrogen electron as depicted by both the (a) Bohr and (b) the wave-mechanical models. However, in the wave-mechanical model, orbitals are thought of as the probability that an electron will occupy a certain space around the nucleus and they are characterized by
probability functions.
Depiction of the energy states for the 2p subshell. Because each subshell has a characteristic shape as determined by the electron probability functions (dumbbell-shaped for p subshells), the different energy states are represented by identical subshells oriented along different axes (x, y and z)
The relative energies of shells and subshells for all elements. Note that the lower the shell number, the lower the energy (e.g., energy associated with 1s is less than for 2s). Additionally, the energy of the subshells in each shell increases from s to f. However, energy states can overlap between shells (e.g., energy of the 3d shell is greater than the 4s).

EXAMPLES: COVALENT BONDING
Formation of four sp3 hybrid orbitals from one valence electron in the 2s and three in the 2p.
Each of the newly formed hybrid orbitals have a large lobe that can be directed toward other atoms to promote
covalent binding.
Spatial orientations of the most common hybrid orbital types. The
spatial orientation of the hybrid orbitals affects where bonding
occurs and results in different bond angles for different compounds.
There are two types of bonds: and . bonds occur along the participating orbitals axis;
occur at right angles to the participating orbitals
Bonds can also be “bonding” or “antibonding”When forming molecular orbitals.
antibonding molecular orbitals have higher Energy than bonding orbitals
(a) molecular orbitals. bonding and antibonding molecular orbitals
describe the electron density in the line between two nuclei. (b-c)
molecular orbitals. bonding and antibonding molecular orbitals arise from the sideways overlap of atomic orbitals and therefore describe the
electron density in spatial orientations other than that along the internuclear
axis.
(a) Hydrogen bond between water molecules. The electronegative oxygen draws electrons away from the hydrogen nucleus, which, in combination with the extra, unbonded electrons in
the oxygen atom, causes the oxygen portion of the molecule to carry a partial negative charge. The hydrogen atoms can then interact with the negative (oxygen) end of another
water molecule to form the hydrogen bond. (b) An illustration of a three-dimensional lattice of hydrogen bonds in water.

METALLIC BONDING
Schematic of metallic bonding. Because there are no
electronegative elements to accept the valence electrons, the electrons are donated to the entire structure.
This creates a “cloud” or “sea” of electrons that are mobile and surround a core of cations.
Arises from interaction between dipoles
• Permanent dipoles-molecule induced

• tend to be densely packed.
• have several reasons for dense packing:-Typically, only one element is present, so all atomic radii are the same.-Metallic bonding is not directional.-Nearest neighbor distances tend to be small in order to lower bond energy.
• have the simplest crystal structures. 74 elements have the simplest crystal structures – BCC, FCC and HCP
We will look at three such structures...
METALLIC CRYSTALS
The crystal lattice
A point lattice is made up of regular, repeating points in space. An atom or group of atoms are tied to each lattice point
14 different point lattices, called Bravais lattices, make up the crystal system. The lengths of the sides, a, b, and c, and the angles between them can vary for a particular unit cell.
Three simple lattices that describe metals are Face Centered Cubic (FCC) Body Centered Cubic (BCC) and Hexagonal Close Packed (HCP)

• Rare due to poor packing (only Po has this structure)• Close-packed directions are cube edges.
• Coordination # = 6 (# nearest neighbors)
SIMPLE CUBIC STRUCTURE (SC)

• Coordination # = 12
• Close packed directions are face diagonals.--Note: All atoms are identical; the face-centered atoms are shaded differently only for ease of viewing.
