Abstract

- An implantable metallic surface consisting of titanium (Ti) was modified with natural bone-mimicking CNT-Gelatin-HA nanohybrids.
- The CNT fibers were hybridized with gelatin and HA in a multi-core-shell structure of similar constitution to that of the collagen fibers of natural bone.
- The new surface of the Ti substrates showed significantly higher mechanical properties and favorable wettability and biocompatibility.
