*Note: Mol2Net conference is associated to different MDPI journals special issues guest edited by Mol2Net Conference Committee members. This is an strategy to increase the online post-publication visibility of papers and conference, promote post-publication brainstorming discussion, and increase authors feedback. This association implies that our conference perform post-publication indexing of selected papers already published in MDPI journals with the consent of the issue editors. We publish free-of-cost these post-publication summaries. They include a shortened title, corresponding author info, and paper cover pdf file. The cover pdf file contains paper first page with all authors, abstract, full reference , and link to original papers.

Recently, research on and the application of nanomaterials such as graphene, carbon nanotubes, and metal–organic frameworks has become increasingly popular in tissue engineering. In 2014, a two-dimensional sheet of black phosphorus (BP) was isolated from massive BP crystals. Since then, BP has attracted significant attention as an emerging nanomaterial. BP possesses many advantages such as light responsiveness, electrical conductivity, degradability, and good biocompatibility. Thus, it has broad prospects in biomedical applications. Moreover, BP is composed of phosphorus, which is a key bone tissue component with good biocompatibility and osteogenic repair ability. Thereby, BP exhibits excellent advantages for application in bone tissue engineering. In this review, the structure and the physical and chemical properties of BP are described. In addition, the current applications of BP in bone tissue engineering are reviewed to aid the future research and application of BP.
