Abstract
Recently, the research community has turned its attention to some specific inorganic nanofiller materials dedicated to biomedical applications. Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are an advanced class of promising materials that permit improvements to the properties of composite materials. Until now, LDH materials have been considered as nanofillers for their photocatalytic, antibacterial, and flame-retardancy properties. Therefore the use of LDH materials in preparing polymer nanocomposites is a relatively new field of application. They are in compliance with bionanocomposites materials, making them highly demanded biomedical applications.
