A novel approach to enhance mechanical properties of Ti substrates for biomedical applications
Abstract
The present study proposes a novel approach to flat rolling in order to improve the mechanical properties of pureTi substrates, making it a promising alternative to the Ti-6Al-4V alloy commonly used in biomedicine.Commercially pure titanium grade 4 (TiG4) was subjected to a process of multi-rotational flat rolling (MRFR)that resulted in a refinement of the microstructure and an improvement in microhardness up to values comparableto those of the titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V. The biggest advantage of the MRFR processing performed wasthat it maintained the square cross-section of the titanium product, which gives the possibility of fabricatingrelatively large products with improved mechanical properties for biomedical applications. The objective of thisresearch was to compare TiG4 after MRFR processing with TiG5 (Ti-6Al-4V) to assess the influence of theprocessing on the properties of pure titanium. The products obtained were characterized in microstructure andchemical composition, wettability, surface energy, roughness, and stiffness; by using light microscopy, scanningelectron microscopy equipped with energy dispersive spectroscopy, contact angle measurements, optical profilometry,and atomic force microscopy. Bacterial and cell tests were conducted to consider the potential of theproposed methodology in biomedical applications. To this end, corrosion tests in Hank’s solution were performedto simulate the conditions in the peri-implant environment.
