Acid Treatments of Ti-Based Metallic Glasses for Improving Corrosion Resistance in Implant Applications

Ti-based bulk metallic glasses are promising materials for metallic bone implants, mainly due to their mechanical biofunctionality. A major drawback is their limited corrosion resistance, with high sensitivity to pitting. Thus, effective surface treatments for these alloys must be developed. This wo...
