The Ti3. 6Nb1. 0Ta0. 2Zr0. 2 coating on anodized aluminum by PVD: A potential candidate for short-time biomedical applications
Abstract In this study, Ti 3.6 Nb 1.0 Ta 0.2 Zr 0.2 based coatings were deposited on
anodized and non-anodized aluminum surfaces by PVD. For this purpose, a target for the
magnetron sputtering PVD system was prepared from a β-type Ti–29Nb–13Ta–4.6 Zr bulk
alloy via hot-forgings. Surface morphologies and elemental composition analysis of the
TNTZ-based PVD coatings were conducted using scanning electron microscopy attached
with an energy dispersive spectroscopy incorporated (SEM-EDS). A micro-scratch and …
