Surface modification on titanium alloy for biomedical applications
Surface modification techniques have been proven to enhance resistance towards corrosion, to slow the process of wearing, to reduce metal ions release, as well as the process of biomaterial osseointegration. Not only that, these techniques could extend the longevity in materials related to implant,...

| Summary: | Surface modification techniques have been proven to enhance resistance towards corrosion, to slow the process of wearing, to reduce metal ions release, as well as the process of biomaterial osseointegration. Not only that, these techniques could extend the longevity in materials related to implant, primarily because of its response towards the host of body. Generally, these techniques can be further broken down into physical, mechanical, and chemical approaches. As such, this paper presents further information pertaining to the numerous types of methods for modifying surfaces, along with their benefits and drawbacks. Additionally, several other significant aspects are detailed as well in this paper, for example, the materials and biomaterials used for implant, as well as a number of issues concerning the usage of alloy, biomaterial and titanium. |
