Metallic biomaterials are used in medical devices in humans more than any other family of
materials. The corrosion resistance of an implant material affects its functionality and …

High requirements in biomedical applications are yet to be met, equally in joint and bone
substitution and the healing and renewal of bone weaknesses. The compatibility with the …

During recent decades vast and continuously increasing numbers of biomedical implants
have been introduced for continuous use in the human body. Since the early cemented hip …

To investigate the metal release of each base and alloying elements in vitro, SUS316L

The electrochemical behavior of Ti–6Al–4V and Ti–6Al–7Nb alloys, commonly used implant
materials, particularly for orthopaedic and osteosynthesis applications, was investigated …

Metal ion release from metallic materials, eg stainless steel, cobalt–chromium alloy, titanium,
and titanium alloys, implanted into human body was reviewed in this paper. Surface oxide …

Surface films play a key role in corrosion and osteointegration processes of titanium-based
orthopedic implants. The influence of niobium and vanadium as alloying elements on …

Wear and corrosion behaviour of cold-rolled Ti–13Nb–13Zr alloy, with martensitic
microstructure, and Ti–6Al–4V ELI alloy, in martensitic and two-phase (α+ β) microstructural …

In the last decade, new titanium alloys have been developed in different areas of dentistry,
such as TiAl6V4 and NiTi. Concurrently, treatments using fluoride supplementation, such as …

The effects of various metallic ions using various metallic powders on the relative growth
ratio of fibroblasts L929 and osteoblasts MC3T3-E1 cells were carried out. Ti, Zr, Sn, Nb and …
