Adhesion in Pharmaceutical, Biomedical, and Dental Fields (Adhesion and Adhesives: Fundamental and Applied Aspects) 1st Edition

Biomedical adhesion textbook

The phenomenon of adhesion is of cardinal importance in the pharmaceutical, biomedical and dental fields. A few eclectic examples will suffice to underscore the importance/relevance of adhesion in these three areas. For example, the adhesion between powdered solids is of crucial importance in tablet manufacture. The interaction between biodevices (e.g., stents, bio-implants) and body environment dictates the performance of such devices, and there is burgeoning research activity in modifying the surfaces of such implements to render them compatible with bodily components.
