Functionalization of Ti6Al4V Alloy with Polyphenols: The Role of the Titanium Surface Features and the Addition of Calcium Ions on the Adsorption Mechanism

Functionalization of medical devices with biomolecules is a key strategy to control implant outcomes, for instance, polyphenols can produce fast osseointegration and reduce both the infection risk and inflammatory response. This paper is designed to evaluate the role of calcium ions and surface feat...
