Photothermal Coating on Zinc Alloy for Controlled Biodegradation and Improved Osseointegration (Adv. Sci. 9/2025)
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Photothermal Coating This image illustrates the dual functionality of an NIR-responsive PCL/CuS coating on a Zn–Li alloy, combining external stimulation with controlled Zn2+ release to enhance osseointegration. The PCL encapsulation regulates Zn2+ release, while CuS nanoparticles enable mild photothermal therapy under NIR stimulation. This innovative approach synergistically promotes bone integration, showcasing its potential for advanced orthopedic applications.
