Advances in the induction of osteogenesis by zinc surface modification based on titanium alloy substrates for medical implants

Heat treatment effect on the mechanical properties, roughness and bone ingrowth capacity of 3D printing porous titanium alloy

“…shear and compressive strengths) of porous titanium alloy. 15,16 Heat treatments on titanium alloy have been investigated extensively, and attempts have been made to model the phase morphology, microstructure and mechanical properties. 17,18 With the increase of solution temperature, grain boundary, phase boundary within the material phase heterogeneous interface can affect mechanical properties of weak links.…”

Hydrogel as a Biomaterial for Bone Tissue Engineering: A Review

“…Bioglass can also be combined directly with bone for use in bone conductive materials. Although it is generally considered to have no bone conductivity, titanium oxide formed spontaneously from titanium exposed to air and water electrolytes is stable in the body and cannot be biodegraded [ 35 ]. Titanium dioxide, especially the anatase crystal structure, is beneficial to the formation of apatite and has excellent bone conduction capacity in the body [ 36 ].…”

Additive manufacturing technique-designed metallic porous implants for clinical application in orthopedics

“…8,9 Metals and alloys are widely used in orthopedic prosthesis fabrication, due to ne biocompatibility, superior mechanical strength and excellent corrosion resistance. [10][11][12] However, the mismatch of elastic modulus between metals (110 GPa) and natural bones (4-20 GPa) may result in stress shielding, which can lead to the loosening and eventual failure of implants. [13][14][15][16] In order to reduce stress shielding, an effective method is to use porous metallic structures through adjusting pore feature.…”
