Review on Corrosion, Tribocorrosion and Osseointegration of Titanium Alloys as Biomaterials
When introduced into the body, the implant interacts with biological environment and may suffer corrosion. In addition, when this implant is submitted to friction, it may degrade by tribocorrosion due to the simultaneous action of corrosion by the body liquid and mechanical wear. Both corrosion and...
