Lotus‐Effect and inverse Lotus‐Effect in connection with extremely rough titanium surfaces [PDF]
Materialwissenschaft und Werkstofftechnik, 2010 Abstract Titanium alloys are frequently surface‐modified by plasma vapor deposition of cp titanium (titanium plasma spraying, TPS; Ti‐PVD surface) for clinical use. Such surfaces are extremely rough with Ra values of 30 μm. Unmodified surfaces of Ti‐PVD display apparent static contact angles of θ
