Exfoliation Resistance, Microstructure, and Oxide Formation Mechanisms of the White Oxide Layer on CP Ti and Ti–Nb–Ta–Zr Alloys

We found that specific biomedical Ti and its alloys, such as CP Ti, Ti–29Nb–13Ta–4.6Zr, and Ti–36Nb–2Ta–3Zr–0.3O, form a bright white oxide layer after a particular oxidation heat treatment. In this paper, the interfacial microstructure of the oxide layer on Ti–29Nb–13Ta–4.6Zr and the exfoliation re...
