| Glass scaffolds help heal bone, show promise as weight-bearing implants Posted: 26 Jul 2013 07:33 AM PDT Researchers have developed a type of glass implant that could one day be used to repair injured bones in the arms, legs and other areas of the body that are most subject to the stresses of weight. |
| Quantum of sonics: Bonded, not stirred Posted: 26 Jul 2013 06:24 AM PDT Researchers have discovered a new way to join materials together using ultrasound. Ultrasound -- sound so high it cannot be heard -- is normally used to smash particles apart in water. Scientists found that if particles were coated with phosphate, they could instead bond together into strong agglomerates, about the size of grains of sand. |
