“…Moreover, TiN is the material of choice as the hard coating on dental implants and dental surgical tools. The structure and properties of nitrogen ion implanted titanium and titanium alloys have been investigated by many researchers [344][345][346][347][348][349][350][351]. Krupa et al [344,345] implanted nitrogen into OT-4-0 (Ti-0.7Mn-0.7Al) titanium alloy using conventional ion implantation and investigated the changes of the surface structure and the advantageous effect of nitrogen ion implantation upon the corrosion resistance.…”

Titanium and titanium alloys are widely used in biomedical devices and components, especially as hard tissue replacements as well as in cardiac and cardiovascular applications, because of their desirable properties, such as relatively low modulus, good fatigue strength, formability, machinability, corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility. However, titanium and its alloys cannot meet all of the clinical requirements. Therefore, in order to improve the biological, chemical, and mechanical properties, surface modification is often performed. This article reviews the various surface modification technologies pertaining to titanium and titanium alloys including mechanical treatment, thermal spraying, sol-gel, chemical and electrochemical treatment, and ion implantation from the perspective of biomedical engineering. Recent work has shown that the wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and biological properties of titanium and titanium alloys can be improved selectively using the appropriate surface treatment techniques while the desirable bulk attributes of the materials are retained. The proper surface treatment expands the use of titanium and titanium alloys in the biomedical fields. Some of the recent applications are also discussed in this paper. #

“…En los últimos años se han dedicado numerosos esfuerzos al estudio de las modificaciones del titanio y sus aleaciones mediante la implantación de iones ligeros (1)(2)(3), hecho que refleja la creciente demanda industrial de estas aleaciones. Son bien conocidos los efectos positivos que la implantación iónica de nitrógeno tiene sobre la dureza superficial y la resistencia al desgaste de las aleaciones de titanio (1)(2)(3), un hecho ampliamente aprovechado en la industria aeronáutica y biomédica.…”

Abstract. 2014 Due to its mechanical properties and low density, the Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy is used in hip prostheses. But the tribological behavior of Ti-6Al-4V sliding against ultra high molecular weight polyethylene involves wear degradations. The wear behavior of (Ti-6Al-4V/UHMWPE) couple can be improved by ion implantation of nitrogen. After a characterization study to find the optimal parameters for classic ion implantation, this study presents an analysis of wear behavior in comparison with chemical composition, microhardness and adhesion work for a new implantation technique, plasma immersion ion implantation.
