520			_aThis book presents the latest development of fibre/ceramic-polymer composites for biocompatible applications, with a special emphasis on the effect of different types of fibre and ceramic fillers on the characteristics of the composites. The book contains chapters that cover fundamentals, materials used for composites, fabrication, classification, and biomedical applications. The first section of the book provides a brief overview of the fibre and ceramic-based composite materials while the subsequent sections cover the numerous types of fibre and ceramic polymeric composites with emphasis on their potential biomedical applications. Increasingly sophisticated biomedical technologies, such as tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, as well as genetic therapies and controlled drug delivery, are being developed at a breakneck pace, necessitating the development of new materials to meet the specific requirements of these fields. Single-component ceramic or polymer materials that are now available do not meet their requirements. Therefore, composites and hybrid composites have an important role to play. Aside from that, to completely meet the fundamental criteria such as biocompatibility, biodegradability, and acceptable mechanical qualities, it is necessary to find materials that can perform a variety of advanced activities at the same time. This book is a road map not only for the materials scientist but also for researchers, academics, technologists, and students working in composites for biomedical engineering applications
