    • Enhancement of mechanical properties and wettability of TiO2NT arrays formed in simulated body fluid‐based electrolyte. 

      Simon, Anna Paulla; Santos, Vidiany Aparecida Queiroz; Rodrigues, Andressa; Santos, Janaina Soares; Strixino, Francisco Trivinho; Pereira, Bruno Leandro; Lepienski, Carlos Mauricio; Sikora, Mariana de Souza (Wiley, 2019-09-13)
      Modified titanium nanotubes (TiO2NTs) coatings are grown in simulated body fluid (SBF) from Ticp and Ti6Al4V. The addition of 1% v/v of SBF to the electrolyte neither modifies film morphology nor the structural oxide ...
    • Oxide layer containing apatite formed on Ti-25Nb-25Ta alloy treated by two-step plasma electrolytic oxidation. 

      Pereira, Bruno Leandro; Beilner, Gregory; Lepienski, Carlos Mauricio; Szameitat, Erico Saito; Kuromoto, Neide Kazue; dos Santos, Leonardo Luis; Chee, Bor Shin; Alves Claro, Anna Paula Rosifini; Mazzaro, Irineu; Nugent, Michael J.D. (Elsevier, 2020-01-25)
      Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a bioactive calcium phosphate capable of enhancing the implant/bone connection improving osteoconductivity and osseointegration process. However, the HA presents mechanical properties limiting its ...
    • Scratch-resistant and well-adhered nanotube arrays produced via anodizing process on β-titanium alloy 

      Pereira, Bruno Leandro; Beilner, Gregory; Lepienski, Carlos Mauricio; de Souza, Gelson Biscaia; Kuromoto, Neide Kazue; Szameitat, Erico Saito; Peng, Ambrose Ngu See; Lee, Jia Yee; Claro, Ana Paula Rosifini Alves; Nugent, Michael J.D. (Elsevier, 2021-03)
      Well-adhered nanotube arrays were produced through the anodizing technique on a Ti-25Nb-25Ta alloy and tribo-mechanically evaluated by nanoindentation and nanoscratch tests. Disregarding substrate effects, the hardness of ...
    • Tailoring surface properties from nanotubes and anodic layers of titanium for biomedical applications. 

      de Lima, G.G.; da Luz, Aline Rossetto; Pereira, Bruno Leandro; Szez, Eduardo Mioduski; de Souza, Gelson Biscaia; Lepienski, Carlos Mauricio; Kuromoto, Neide Kazue; Nugent, Michael J.D. (Woodhead Publishing, 2019)
      The following chapter gives an overview of the anodic layers and nanotubes produced with plasma electrolytic oxidation. An introduction into the mechanisms involved in producing these nanofilms, such as the required ...
    • Ti-25Nb-25Ta alloy treated by plasma electrolytic oxidation in phosphoric acid for implant applications 

      Beilner, Gregory; Pereira, Bruno Leandro; Lepienski, Carlos Mauricio; de Souza, Gelson Biscaia; da Luz, Aline Rosseto; Szameitat, Erico Saito; Kuromoto, Neide Kazue; Claro, Ana Paula Rosifini Alves; Sampaio, Viviane Seba; Chee, Bor Shin; Nugent, Michael J.D. (Rede Latino-Americana de Materiais, 2021)
      Among titanium alloys with non-toxic elements, the Ti-25Nb-25Ta alloy has good elastic behavior for applications in osseous implants, biocompatibility, and excellent corrosion resistance. The present study aimed to better ...
