Journal ArticleDOI
On the oxidation mechanism of pure tungsten in the temperature range 600-800 C
TL;DR: In this paper, the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER)-reference tungsten grade has been evaluated in dry air in the temperature range 600-800°C.
Journal ArticleDOI
In vitro degradation of biodegradable polylactic acid/magnesium composites: Relevance of Mg particle shape.
Sandra C. Cifuentes,R. Gavilán,Marcela Lieblich,Rosario Benavente,José Luis González-Carrasco +4 more
TL;DR: Results show that the shape of the Mg reinforcing particles plays a crucial role in the degradation rate of PLA/Mg composites, with spherical particles promoting a lower degradation rate than irregular particles, which helps to customize bioabsorbable materials in order to meet the requirements for a specific application and patient.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel PLLA/magnesium composite for orthopedic applications: A proof of concept
Sandra C. Cifuentes,E. Frutos,José Luis González-Carrasco,Montserrat Muñoz,Marta Multigner,Jesús Chao,Rosario Benavente,Marcela Lieblich +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a set of specimens were processed by combining solvent casting of PLLA (poly- l -lactic acid) loaded with 30% of Mg particles and further molding by compression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Incorporation of Mg particles into PDLLA regulates mesenchymal stem cell and macrophage responses
Sandra C. Cifuentes,Fátima Bensiamar,Amparo M. Gallardo-Moreno,Tim A. Osswald,José Luis González-Carrasco,Rosario Benavente,María L González-Martín,Eduardo García-Rey,Nuria Vilaboa,Laura Saldaña +9 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that including small amounts of Mg particles into polymeric devices can be a valuable strategy to promote osseointegration and reduce host inflammatory response.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biodegradable Bi-layered coating on polymeric orthopaedic implants for controlled release of drugs
Nerea Argarate,Beatriz Olalde,Garbiñe Atorrasagasti,Jesus Valero,Sandra C. Cifuentes,Rosario Benavente,Marcela Lieblich,José Luis González-Carrasco +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a novel bone substitute incorporating biodegradable coatings on poly( d, l -lactide-co-lactides) (PLDL) implant has been developed.
