Green Forging of Titanium and Titanium Alloys by Using the Carbon Supersaturated SKD11 Dies

Titanium and Titanium Alloys as Biomaterials

Titanium Alloys

Although originally discovered in the 18th century [1], the titanium industry did not experience any significant advancement until the middle of the 20th century through the development of the gas turbine engine [2]. Since then, the aerospace sector has dominated worldwide titanium use with applications in both engines and airframe structures [3]. The highly desirable combination of properties,...

Titanium Alloys in Orthopaedics

Metallic implants are commonly used in the orthopedic field. Despite the large number of metallic medical devices in use today, they are predominantly make up of only a few metals. Metallic alloys such as titanium continue to be one of the most important components used in orthopaedic implant devices due to favorable properties of high strength, rigidity, fracture toughness and their reliable m...

Dental implant materials: commercially pure titanium and titanium alloys.

Manufacturers use six different titanium-based biomaterials to fabricate dental implants. Each of these materials, including four grades of commercially pure titanium and two titanium alloys, has distinct mechanical and physical properties. Clinicians should recognize these differences for optimal treatment planning and patient care.

The Ultrafine-Grained Titanium and Biomedical Titanium Alloys Processed by Severe Plastic Deformation (SPD)

the function of our tissues and organs. Among the biomedical materials, titanium alloys have received attractions for dental and orthopedic implants due to their high strength, great corrosion resistance and biocompatibility, and low density [1,2]. Recently, a series of new β titanium alloys have been developed with low elastic modulus, containing non-toxic alloying elements such as Nb, Ta, Zr ...
