Porous Structure Characterization in Titanium Coating for Surgical Implants

Porous Structure Characterization in Titanium Coating for Surgical Implants

Powder metallurgy techniques have been used to produce controlled porous structures, such as the porous coatings applied for dental and orthopedic surgical implants, which allow bony tissue ingrowth within the implant surface improving fixation. This work presents the processing and characterization...
