Formation of highly adherent nano-porous alumina on Ti-based substrates: a novel bone implant coating.

Thin, nano-porous, highly adherent layers of anodised aluminium formed on the surface of titanium alloys are being developed as coatings for metallic surgical implants. The layers are formed by anodisation of a 1-5 microm thick layer of aluminium which has been deposited on substrate material by ele...
