Corrosion resistance, mechanical properties, corrosion fatigue strength and cytocompatibility of new Ti alloys without Al and V

Biocompatibility of Ti-8Ta-3Nb alloy with fetal rat calvarial cells

“…However, the interesting finding of this study is that cell proliferation rate was lower on the Ti-6Al-4V surfaces than on other test surfaces. Okazaki et al 25) reported that metallic ions such as Ti, Zr, Sn, Nb, and Ta had evidently no harmful effects on the growth ratios of cells however, Al and V ions presented lower rate as compared to that of titanium ion. Hallab et al 26) .…”

Corrosion resistance improvement of titanium base alloys

“…14,15 Zirconium implants exhibit good osseointegration and the degree of bone-implant contact is higher for Zr than for Ti. [16][17][18][19] Only few alloys with zirconium were elaborated for implant use: Ti-2.2Al-2.6Zr, 11 Ti-13Nb-13Zr, 20,21 Ti-15Zr-4Nb-4Ta, 10 Ti-15Zr-4Nb-4Ta-0.2Pd, 22 Ti-50Zr and Zr-25Nb. 14 The new Romanian Ti-6Al-4V-1Zr alloy was elaborated for to combine the very good mechanical properties of Ti-6Al-4V alloy with the good biocompatibility of zirconium.…”

Dental implant stress analysis with selected prosthetic crown overhangs sizes

“…As replacement for this type of alloy, the Ti6Al4V ELI alloy is becoming increasingly popular. The content of harmful elements is reduced in this alloy [15]. In terms of material properties, both alloys do not differ from each other.…”
