Enhancement of mechanical properties and wettability of TiO2NT arrays formed in simulated body fluid‐based electrolyte.
(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 ...
Development of electrospun PVA nanofibers via freeze-thawing method
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2019)
The polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogels are proven to have the benefits of improving water retention ability, cell attachment and controlled drug release in
medical device materials for pharmaceutical applications. Due to ...
Oxide layer containing apatite formed on Ti-25Nb-25Ta alloy treated by two-step plasma electrolytic oxidation.
(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 ...
Tailoring surface properties from nanotubes and anodic layers of titanium for biomedical applications.
(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 ...
