Bioactive coatings on porous titanium for biomedical applications [PDF]

Surface and Coatings Technology, 2018
Commercial pure titanium is a recognized and accepted material for cortical bone tissue substitution. However, stress-shielding phenomena and lack of osseointegration result in significant limitations. This work is focused on the achievement of an effective solution for both problems via fabrication of porous titanium substrates coated with bioactive ...
