This paper studies nanostructured commercially pure Ti (CP Ti) used in producing miniature implants for osteosynthesis in the cranio-facial and mandibular areas. Ti Grade 4 rods are nanostructured by equal-channel angular pressing via the Conform scheme (ECAP-C) and subsequent drawing. Plate-shaped items are designed and produced from nano-Ti. The cross-section of items is reduced, but their static and fatigue strength values are retained. Geometrical aspect and surface treatment of implants produced from nanostructured Ti materials are discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
