Influence of heat treatment on the microstructure, wettability, and corrosion resistance of a Ti–30Nb–7Zr alloy used in biomedical applications

Influence of heat treatment on the microstructure, wettability, and corrosion resistance of a Ti–30Nb–7Zr alloy used in biomedical applications

Commercially pure titanium (cp Ti ASTM F67) and the Ti–6Al–4V ELI (Extra Low Interstitial) alloy (ASTM F136) are commonly used as biomaterials due to their biocompatibility, mechanical strength, and corrosion resistance. The low mechanical resistance of cp Ti reduces its applications. The F136 alloy...
