Effects of Plasma Treatment on the Bioactivity of Alkali-Treated Ceria-Stabilised Zirconia/Alumina Nanocomposite (NANOZR)

Zirconia ceramics such as ceria-stabilized zirconia/alumina nanocomposites (nano-ZR) are applied as implant materials due to their excellent mechanical properties. However, surface treatment is required to obtain sufficient biocompatibility. In the present study, we explored the material surface fun...
