Abstract:Synthesis of silicon oxide (SiO2) via the sol-gel method and SiO2 coating
ability on to Ti6Al4V alloy were investigated, in the novel study. Ti6Al4V
alloy is the most used alloy in biomedical applications due to its many
advantages. However, it has a minor disadvantage like releasing ions into
the human body. In this study, the substrate material Ti6Al4V alloy samples
were coated using the sol-gel method with alkoxysilane solutions (tetraethyl
orthosilicate, TEOS; Si(OC2H5)4 and glycidoxyprop… Show more
