3D Porous Graphene by Low‐Temperature Plasma Welding for Bone Implants

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

3D scaffolds of graphene, possessing ultra-low density, macroporous microstructure, and high yield strength and stiffness can be developed by a novel plasma welding process. The bonding between adjacent graphene sheets is investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. The high degree of biocompatibility along with high porosity and good mechanical properties makes graphene an ideal material for use as body implants.
