Incorporating catechol into electroactive polypyrrole nanowires on titanium to promote hydroxyapatite formation
To improve the osteointegration property of biomedical titanium, nano-architectured electroactive coating was synthesized through the electrochemical polymerization of dopamine and pyrrole. The highly binding affinity of Ca2+ to the catechol moiety of doped dopamine enabled efficient interaction bet...
