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 produced from a quaternary phosphate-based glass (PBG)...
