Metallic biomaterials are widely used for orthopedic application to resolve pain and improve
patients' quality of life. Among these biomaterials, beta (β)–phase titanium (Ti) alloys have …

Abstract β-Ti alloys are known for their very low Young's modulus, excellent physical
properties, and biocompatibility, hence they are considered as attractive metallic materials …

In this study, we have developed new biocompatible Ti-15Ta-xZr (1.5, 5.5, 10.5 and15. 5
wt%) alloys fabricated by selective laser melting. The SLM process inputs a mixture of 65 …

The native passive film on the new Ti–15Ta–5Zr alloy surface contains the protective TiO 2,
Ta 2 O 5 and ZrO 2 oxides (XPS analysis). The decrease of the corrosion current densities …

The materials used for internal fracture fixations and joint replacements are mainly made of
metals which still face problems ranging from higher rigidity than that of natural bone to …

Abstract 112⟨ 111⟩ β twins are observed in a superelastic β Ti-24Nb-4Zr-8Sn (wt.%) single
crystal after tensile test. A careful Schmid factor analysis shows that these twins are formed …

In the biomedical field, a main challenge is to find a material that can provide all the
requirements imposed by biomedical applications, including consisting of biocompatible …

Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a bioactive calcium phosphate capable of enhancing the
implant/bone connection improving osteoconductivity and osseointegration process …

In this study, a superelastic Ni-free Ti-based biomedical alloy was treated in surface by the
implantation of nitrogen ions for the first time. The N-implanted surface was characterized by …

In this work, severe plastic deformation (SPD) of the newly designed Ti-Nb-Zr-Ta-Fe-O GUM
metal was successfully conducted at room temperature using high speed high pressure …
