In vitro biological response of plasma electrolytically oxidized and plasma‐sprayed hydroxyapatite coatings on Ti–6Al–4V alloy

TL;DR: Comparisons of physical, chemical and biological surface characteristics of two coatings applied by PEO processes, containing different calcium phosphate and titanium dioxide phases, with a plasma-sprayed hydroxyapatite (HA) coating showed that PEO coatings are significantly more hydrophilic and have 78% lower surface roughness than the plasma-Sprayed coatings.

Titanium alloys in total joint replacement—a materials science perspective

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.

On the mechanisms of biocompatibility.

David F. Williams
- 01 Jul 2008 - 
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.
