This work mainly investigated the corrosion behavior of laser powder bed fusion prepared
antibacterial copper-bearing titanium (LPBF-TiCu) alloy. LPBF-TiCu alloy possessed …

Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) technology enables personalized customization of medical
implants. However, the clinical titanium alloy is biologically inert and can't address bacterial …

Abstract Ti-6Al-4V alloys, widely used as medical implants, suffer from low wear resistance
inhuman body fluids, restricting their applications in the biomedical field. This study …

Adding appropriate amount of copper to titanium alloy can improve the wear resistance,
biological corrosion resistance and antimicrobial properties of titanium-based human …

Ti-xCu biomedical alloys were designed to have satisfactory antibacterial properties
compared to pure Ti. Ti-xCu (x= 0, 3, 5, 7, and 10 wt%) alloys were prepared by selective …

Copper element was added in pure titanium to produce a new biomedical titanium-copper
alloy by laser powder bed fusion (LPBF). Addition of copper can eliminate the mismatch of …

This study examined the corrosion behavior of Cu-bearing titanium alloy, Ti-xCu (x= 0, 2, 5,
8 wt%) manufactured through laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) in artificial saliva. The results …

Antibacterial properties are critical for implants, while general pure titanium implants are
bioinert. Adding nano Ag to metals is an effective strategy to obtain antibacterial properties …

Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) technology realized the surgical personalized devices.
However, LPBF-produced titanium alloys face several limitations, such as obvious …

Laser power bed fusion (LPBF)-NiTi alloy is a promising medical implant material because it
can form complex and precise structures. However, due to postoperative bacterial infection …
