Abstract:Medical titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V (TC4) is an ideal surgical implant material for human tissue repair and replacement. TC4 implantation will be in close contact with human soft tissue and has mechanical compatibility problems. In order to solve this problem, the hydrogel was formed on the surface of TC4 by utilizing the adhesion of dopamine, and the storage modulus of the formed hydrogel matched that of human soft tissue. In this paper, the surface of TC4 was first modified with dopamine (DA) and 2-bromoisobuty… Show more
