With the help of an improved technology created by MISIS University specialists in collaboration with colleagues from For example, for the first time in the world, it was possible to obtain the effect ...

A team for the University of Campinas (UNICAMP), has tailored tantalum oxide (TaxOy) films onto commercially pure titanium (cpTi) surface in the efforts of producing a biocompatible surface treatment ...

Researchers have found a simple, inexpensive way to create a nanowire coating on the surface of biocompatible titanium that can be used to create more effective surfaces for hip replacement, dental ...

Titanium is a very biocompatible material, which is why it's so often used for medical implants. That said, chemical compounds in the metal sometimes do result in implants being rejected by the body.

Scientists have found that an alloy, consisting of titanium and gold, is about three to four times harder than most steels and could be used for stronger, more biocompatible medical implants. Titanium ...

Stem as artificial hip femoral components. The ternary interaction of titanium (Ti), β-stabilizing elements like niobium (Nb) and vanadium (V), and tin (Sn) plays a crucial role in determining the ...

More than 1,000 tons (2.2 million pounds) of titanium devices are implanted in patients worldwide every year with joint replacements one of the more common procedures. Light, strong and totally ...

Jewellery manufacturer Rhinhorns has once again taken to Kickstarter this month to raise funds for its new glowing titanium ring aptly named the TRITiRING. The ring is constructed from Grade5 Titanium ...

Titanium is the leading material for artificial knee and hip joints because it's strong, wear-resistant and nontoxic, but an unexpected discovery by Rice University physicists shows that the gold ...

“It is about 3-4 times harder than most steels,” said Emilia Morosan, the lead scientist on a new study in Science Advances that describes the properties of a 3-to-1 mixture of titanium and gold with ...
