The Materials Map is an open tool for improving networking and interdisciplinary exchange within materials research. It enables cross-database search for cooperation and network partners and discovering of the research landscape.

The dashboard provides detailed information about the selected scientist, e.g. publications. The dashboard can be filtered and shows the relationship to co-authors in different diagrams. In addition, a link is provided to find contact information.

Materials Map under construction

The Materials Map is still under development. In its current state, it is only based on one single data source and, thus, incomplete and contains duplicates. We are working on incorporating new open data sources like ORCID to improve the quality and the timeliness of our data. We will update Materials Map as soon as possible and kindly ask for your patience.

Abstract

<p>A simple chemical method was established for inducing bioactivity of titanium and its alloys. Recently, T. Kokubo demonstrated that an in vitro chemical-deposited bone-like apatite on Ti with bone-bonding ability could be induced. Following treatment, a dense bone-like apatite layer is formed on the surface of the titanium in simulated body fluid (SBF). Observation of the samples in wet state by means of the environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM) enabled us to observe the calcium phosphate deposition process in situ over a number of days. One of the most important features of the study is that it was carried out on a single, unchanged titanium sample and the process was not at any stage interrupted. Moreover, it was demonstrated that human osteoblast adhesion and differentiation behaviour are better in bioactive titanium than in the titanium without the chemical treatment.</p>
