Fabrication of anti-aging TiO2 nanotubes on biomedical Ti alloys.

Fabrication of anti-aging TiO2 nanotubes on biomedical Ti alloys.

The primary objective of this study was to fabricate a TiO2 nanotubular surface, which could maintain hydrophilicity over time (resist aging). In order to achieve non-aging hydrophilic surfaces, anodization and annealing conditions were optimized. This is the first study to show that anodization and...
