Manufacturing of biomaterials with engineered porosity for the promotion of osseointegration : biocompatible duplex cpating on titanium alloy for hard tissie replacement
Potential nickel ion release from nickel-titanium alloy (NiTi) in physiological fluid environment has hindered the alloy's medical application thus far. Even Ti6A14V, an established implant material, is known to release metallic ions in-vitro and in-vivo. To improve its biocompatibility, metal...
