© The Author(s) 2014. Previous studies investigating manufacture of phosphate-based glass fibres from glasses fixed with P2O5 content less than 50 mol% showed that continuous manufacture without breakage was very difficult. In this study, nine phosph...

Initial mechanical properties of phosphate-glass fibre-reinforced rods for use as resorbable intramedullary nails (2012)
Journal Article
Felfel, R. M., Ahmed, I., Parsons, A. J., Harper, L. T., & Rudd, C. D. (2012). Initial mechanical properties of phosphate-glass fibre-reinforced rods for use as resorbable intramedullary nails. Journal of Materials Science, 47(12), 4884-4894. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10853-012-6355-9

This paper investigates the use of novel phosphate- glass fibre-reinforced rods as resorbable intramedullary nails. Random and unidirectional fibres were moulded into composite rods by forging at ∼100 °C. Rods produced using non-woven random mats (RM...

Influence of screw holes and gamma sterilization on properties of phosphate glass fiber-reinforced composite bone plates (2011)
Journal Article
Han, N., Ahmed, I., Parsons, A. J., Harper, L., Scotchford, C. A., Scammell, B. E., & Rudd, C. D. (2013). Influence of screw holes and gamma sterilization on properties of phosphate glass fiber-reinforced composite bone plates.

Polymers prepared from polylactic acid (PLA) have found a multitude of uses as medical devices. For a material that degrades, the main advantage is that an implant would not necessitate a second surgical event for removal. In this study, fibers produ...
