Effect of the Heat-Treated Ti6Al4V Alloy on the Fibroblastic Cell Response

Abstract: Two heat treatments were carried out below (Ti6Al4V800) and above (Ti6Al4V1050) Ti6Al4V beta-phase transformation temperature (980 °C), with the purpose of studying the effect of microstructure on the adhesion and proliferation of fibroblast cells, as well as their electrochemical behavior. These alloys were seeded with 10,000 L929 fibroblast cells and immersed for 7 days in the cell culture at 37 °C, pH 7.40, 5% CO2 and 100% relative humidity. Cell adhesion was characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy (S… Show more

“…It has been demonstrated that different surface microstructures, e.g. globular, martensitic, bimodal and lamellar types, have been attained on the surface of Ti6Al4V alloy after using various surface treatments [31]. When applying the combination of the alkali -heat pretreatment techniques, a uniform porous sodium hydrogen titanate is formed on the origin substrate surface with the diffusion TiO 2 layer of thickness ranging from several hundreds of nm to several m depending on the heat treatment temperature [32,33].…”

“…Hence, bone tissue is continually changing, being restructured and biologically remodeled throughout life [26]. Biocompatibility is also affected by microstructural changes because the chemical composition of the passive oxide formed on the metal surface is different affecting cell adhesion, biocompatibility, and, consequently, osseointegration [4,[27][28][29]. Some studies on the performance of Ti and titanium alloys against real biological environments have been carried out through in vivo tests with experimental animals [30][31][32][33][34][35].…”

“…The microstructure type (bimodal, lamellar and equiaxed) affects the mechanical properties of Ti based alloys [18]. Even though the corrosion of Ti-alloys in different environments has previously beenstudied [19,20,21,22,23], to the best of our knowledge, the literature contains no reports onthe passive layer growth kinetics and breakdown, and subsequent initiation and propagation of pitting corrosion over the surfaces of Ti-6Al-7Nb, Ti-6Al-4V, and TC21 alloys. In this context, the mainobjective of our studywas to assess the effect of microstructure changes of tested alloys on their surface morphology and chemistry using different techniques such as scanning electron microscopy with electron dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS).…”
