Synthesis and properties of hydroxyapatite-containing coating on AZ31 magnesium alloy by micro-arc oxidation
TL;DR: In this article, five applied voltages were chosen to prepare the MAO coatings and the results demonstrate that the number of micropores in the films increases but their dimensions decrease after higher voltage is applied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical, wear, corrosion and biological properties of arc deposited titanium nitride coatings
TL;DR: In this paper, arc-depletion TiN coatings on Ti6Al4V alloy were evaluated for implant applications and the inherent in vitro wear rate of the coatings was 6.8´±´1.3´GPa.

Cerium-doped hydroxyapatite/collagen coatings on titanium for bone implants
Gabriela Ciobanu,Maria Harja +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a modified supersaturated calcification solution (SCS) containing a cerium source and collagen to obtain cerium-doped hydroxyapatite/collagen coatings on the titanium support to improve the performance of the bone implants.

Construction of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)/ZnO nanorods/Ag nanoparticles hybrid coating on Ti implants for enhanced antibacterial activity and biocompatibility.
Yiming Xiang,Jun Li,Xiangmei Liu,Zhenduo Cui,Xianjin Yang,Kelvin W.K. Yeung,Haobo Pan,Shuilin Wu,Shuilin Wu +8 more
TL;DR: The results revealed that this poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)/Ag/ZnO composite could provide a long-lasting antibacterial approach and good cytocompatibility, thus exhibiting considerable potential for biomedical application in orthopedic and dental implants with excellent self-antibacterial activity and good biocomp compatibility.
Journal ArticleDOI
Additively manufactured biodegradable porous metals
TL;DR: The state of the art in AM biodegradable porous metals is presented and the effects of material type, processing, geometrical design, and post-AM treatments on the mechanical properties, biodegradation behavior, in vitro biocompatibility, and in vivo bone regeneration performance of AM porous Mg, Fe, and Zn as well as their alloys are presented.

Titanium alloys in total joint replacement—a materials science perspective
Marc Long,H.J Rack +1 more
TL;DR: This review examines current information on the physical and mechanical characteristics of titanium alloys used in artifical joint replacement prostheses, with a special focus on those issues associated with the long-term prosthetic requirements, e.g., fatigue and wear.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surface modification of titanium, titanium alloys, and related materials for biomedical applications
TL;DR: A review of surface modification techniques for titanium and titanium alloys can be found in this article, where the authors have shown that the wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and biological properties can be improved selectively using the appropriate surface treatment techniques while the desirable bulk attributes of the materials are retained.
Book
Principles and prevention of corrosion
TL;DR: In this article, the technology and evaluation of Corrosion is presented, with a focus on the effects of Metallurgical Structure on Corrosions, and a discussion of materials selection and design.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the mechanisms of biocompatibility.
TL;DR: It is shown that, in the vast majority of circumstances, the sole requirement for biocompatibility in a medical device intended for long-term contact with the tissues of the human body is that the material shall do no harm to those tissues, achieved through chemical and biological inertness.
