TL;DR: Corrosion tests in a simulated body fluid indicate that Pd causes a shift in the corrosion potential towards more positive values, thus delaying the biodegradability of this alloy.

TL;DR: A 3D binary TNA pattern with extremely high contrast for microfluidic manipulators and biomedical scaffolds is used to guide droplet transportation and human mesenchymal stem cell site-selective growth, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced Osseointegration of Porous Titanium Modified with Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-8
TL;DR: The results suggest that ZIF-8@AHT-1/8 has great potential for practical application in implant modification, and its ability to form bone in vivo is investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scaffolds and coatings for bone regeneration.
TL;DR: Despite the interesting advances which include the development of hybrid scaffolds, there are still important challenges that need to be addressed in order to fasten translation of scaffolds into the clinical scenario.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deformation mechanism and mechanical properties of a thermomechanically processed β Ti-28Nb-35.4Zr alloy.
TL;DR: Electron backscatter diffraction analysis revealed that the deformation mechanisms during thermomechanical processing included kink bands, {332}<113> twins and shear bands; and the predominant deformation mechanism depended on the extent of CR deformation.

Projections of primary and revision hip and knee arthroplasty in the United States from 2005 to 2030.
TL;DR: These large projected increases in demand for total hip and knee arthroplasties provide a quantitative basis for future policy decisions related to the numbers of orthopaedic surgeons needed to perform these procedures and the deployment of appropriate resources to serve this need.

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.
