Biocompatible coatings

Biocompatible coatings are specialized surface layers applied to medical devices or implants to ensure they interact safely with the human body. They help prevent adverse reactions like immune responses, infections, or tissue damage. These coatings are made from materials that are non-toxic and compatible with biological tissues, such as certain polymers or ceramics. By improving the surface properties, biocompatible coatings enhance the device's functionality, durability, and safety, making implants like artificial joints, stents, or heart valves more effective and better tolerated by patients.
