Bioactive and electrochemical characterization of TiO2 nanotubes on titanium via anodic oxidation

The Electrochemical Behavior of Titanium Improved by Nanotubular Oxide Formed by Anodization for Biomaterial Applications: A Review

“…For more improvement in the electrochemical corrosion behavior of titanium oxide nanotube, many workers suggested that suitable heat treatment processes of oxide nanotube can provide the required bioactivity and chemical stability which is important in biocompatibility point of view for potential implant applications 27,82 .…”

“…Fo r b i o m a t e r i a l a p p l i c a t i o n s, t h e electrochemical behavior of titanium covered with titanium oxide nanotube was investigated in simulated body solutions [79][80][81][82][83] . Also, the effects of nanotopographical on the bioactivity of titanium were studied in virto 55,70,[84][85][86][87][88] and in vivo 4,89,90 .…”

Evaluation of corrosion resistance and cytocompatibility of graded metal carbon film on Ti and NiTi prepared by hybrid cathodic arc/glow discharge plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition

“…The TiO 2 film ($1 lm thick) thermally oxidized at 650°C/14 h showed about 80 times smaller passive current density (at 2000 mV vs. SCE) than the TiO 2 film ($20 lm thick) thermally oxidized at 850°C/6 h, revealing that the thinner TiO 2 film was more compact and had better corrosion resistance. Chu et al [35] observed that nano-structured TiO 2 films prepared by Fenton's oxidation improved the corrosion resistance of NiTi in simulated body fluids and Park et al [36] showed that TiO 2 film prepared by anodic oxidation followed by heat treatment showed improvement in the corrosion resistance as well. Duarte et al [37] observed that the oxide layer prepared by micro-arc oxidation at 300 V improved the corrosion resistance of Ti-13Nb-13Zr alloy in a phosphate buffer saline solution.…”

Reduced platelet adhesion and improved corrosion resistance of superhydrophobic TiO2-nanotube-coated 316L stainless steel

“…However, not much is known about hemocompatibility [21][22][23][24] or corrosion resistance [25][26][27][28] of TNTs, let alone TNT coatings on SS. Nevertheless, existing studies show that TNTs improve blood compatibility [22,24] and corrosion resistance [25][26][27][28] of Ti. This is indicative of a promising application of TNT coatings on SS for biomedical use.…”
