Nb-content-dependent passivation behavior of Ti–Nb alloys for biomedical applications

Ti–Nb alloys have the advantages of non-toxicity, low elastic modulus, high strength, and good biocompatibility. However, the effect of Nb content on its passivation behavior in Hank's solution still needs to be investigated. This work investigated the microstructure, hardness, and corrosion be...
