Metals and alloys, including stainless steel, titanium and its alloys, cobalt alloys, and other
metals and alloys have been widely used clinically as implant materials, but implant-related …

Bacterial contamination is a critical problem in different fields (ranging from everyday life to
space missions, and from medicine to biosensing). Specifically, in the case of medical …

Titanium and its alloys have already been widely used as implant materials due to their
outstanding mechanical characteristics and biocompatibility. Notwithstanding this …

The development of Ti alloys to manufacture dental implants has emerged in recent years
due to the increased failure of commercially pure titanium (cpTi) implants. Thus, this study …

Copper element was added in pure titanium by a powder metallurgy to produce a new
antibacterial titanium–copper alloy (Ti–Cu alloy). This paper reported the very early stage …

In this study, a series of Cu-bearing Ti6Al4V-xCu (x= 0, 2, 4, 6 wt%) alloys (shorten by
Ti6Al4V, 2C, 4C, and 6C, respectively.) with antibacterial function were successfully …

This research aims to design and process a low elastic modulus near-β Ti–30Nb–3Ag
at%(TNA) alloy with enhanced corrosion and antibacterial characteristics for bioimplant …

Antibacterial metal materials, including Cu-and Ag-containing alloy, have attracted much
attention worldwide. As for the antibacterial mechanism of the antibacterial alloys, there are …

In this research, Ag element was selected as an antibacterial agent to develop an
antibacterial Ti–Ag alloy by a powder metallurgy. The microstructure, phase constitution …

Abstract In this work, Ti-Ag sintered alloys (Ti-Ag) with different Ag contents were prepared
by a spark plasma sintering (SPS) technique, which is a new, efficient and convenient …
