Reduction of copper oxide powder by an inductively coupled thermal plasma

Abstract: Additive manufacturing (AM) methods can be utilised to manufacture complex, custom Ti6Al4V components for medical implants. Infection at the bone-implant interface is a key reason for implant rejection. Advanced titanium implants with biocompatibility and antibacterial properties can be manufactured by modifying the titanium alloy with copper, which in small concentrations (< 1 at % copper) is a proven, non-toxic antibacterial agent. Copper can be embedded into the titanium implant during the AM process cre… Show more
