Titanium and its alloys have superb biocompatibility, low elastic modulus, and favorable
corrosion resistance. These exceptional properties lead to its wide use as a medical implant …

Nearly equiatomic nickel-titanium (NiTi) alloys are used in many biomedical applications
due to their favorable properties, but in some cases, the surface properties such as corrosion …

Nickel–titanium (NiTi) alloys have recently attracted considerable attention due to their
unique properties, ie, shape memory effect and superelasticity. In addition, these promising …

A laser-induced periodic surface structure (LIPSS) was shown to have antibacterial
adhesion properties in previous research. In this study, the antibacterial performance of …

Traditional methods of bone defect repair include autografts, allografts, surgical
reconstruction, and metal implants that have several disadvantages such as donor site …

Multi-functional hierarchical coatings are deposited on the nitrided NiTi alloy. The nitrided
layer is first deposited by nitrogen plasma immersion ion implantation and a middle layer …

This work studies the antibacterial and anti-corrosion properties of nickel-graphene oxide
(Ni-GO) composite coating and nickel-reduced graphene oxide (Ni-rGO) composite coating …

NiTi alloys are widely used in the fabrication of biomedical implants, and it is essential to
endow them with selective antibacterial properties to avoid implant-associated infection. In …

This study introduced an electrochemical process for the formation of a biofunctional oxide
layer on an almost equiatomic NiTi alloy surface. The core technology used in the proposed …

In this work, the effect of zinc oxide nanoparticles on hydroxyapatite deposited on NiTi
superelastic alloy was studied. Various concentrations of nanoparticles (200, 400, and 800 …
