The characterisation of pure titanium for biomedical applications

The paper presents results of research on the use of pure titanium medical implants, dental and orthopedics – as pins hip replacements. The properties of metal biomaterials, including their hardness, determine the usefulness of the material and are one of the criteria for its use. They depend on the...

description The paper presents results of research on the use of pure titanium medical implants, dental and orthopedics – as pins hip replacements. The properties of metal biomaterials, including their hardness, determine the usefulness of the material and are one of the criteria for its use. They depend on their chemical composition and structure. Studies included the observation of the microstructure and mechanical properties of pure titanium. The observations surface were carried out using a scanning electron microscope SEM. The optical profiler was used to depict the geometric structure of the surface, and to carry out the nanoindentation tests a nano hardness tester was used.
