Abstract:Titanium and titanium alloys are widely used bone repair materials in clinical practice. However, titanium and titanium alloys are biologically inert and cannot induce bone formation, resulting in poor integration between titanium-based implants and the surrounding natural bone tissue.
We used early-stage plasma oxidation to prepare a zinc doped TiO2 microporous structure (ZnTMS) coating on a titanium surface with good surface morphology. In vitro studies have shown that this coating can promote osteoblast pr… Show more
