Processing and Characterization of Porous Titanium for Orthopedic Implant Prepared by Argon-atmospheric Sintering and Arc Plasma Sintering
Abstract Porous titanium is proposed to be an effective orthopedic implant with a lower elastic modulus and supports osseointegration during implantation. To produce porous titanium, powder metallurgy (PM) assisted with a space-holder is used in this study. Pure titanium is used as the starting mate...
