Abstract Ti-10Nb-10Zr-5Ta alloy was investigated as possible material candidate for
replacing Ti6Al4V in medical applications. The alloy was prepared in a levitation melting
furnace and characterized in terms of elemental and phase composition, microstructure,
mechanical properties, and corrosion resistance in simulated body fluid and Fusayama
Meyer artificial saliva solutions. The characteristics of the new alloy were compared to those
of the Ti6Al4V alloy. The Ti-10Nb-10Zr-5Ta system was found to posses of a polyhedral …

Characterization of the Ti-10Nb-10Zr-5Ta alloy for biomedical applications. Part 2: Wettability, tribological performance and biocompatibility

V Braic, M Balaceanu, M Braic, C Vitelaru… - Journal of materials …, 2014 - Springer
Abstract The Ti-10Nb-10Zr-5Ta alloy, prepared in a levitation melting furnace, was
investigated as a possible candidate for replacing Ti6Al4V alloy in medical applications. The
sessile drop method, pin-on-disc and in vitro tests were used to analyze wettability, wear
resistance, and biocompatibility of the new alloy. The characteristics of the Ti-10Nb-10Zr-
5Ta alloy were assessed in comparison to those of the Ti6Al4V alloy. The Ti-10Nb-10Zr-5Ta
system was found to have hydrophilic characteristics with similar contact angle as the …
