Resumo |
In the present study, to enhance the strength of porous pure titanium scaffolds with high porosity, new particulate-reinforced Ti-based composites with the addition of biocompatible oxide particles such as TiO<sub>2</sub>, SiO<sub>2</sub>, ZrO<sub>2</sub> and Nb<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub> were prepared using a powder metallurgical method. The strengths of the new particulate-reinforced titanium composites were found to be significantly higher than that of pure titanium with an excellent biocompatibility. SaOS-2 osteoblast-like cells grew and spread well on the surfaces of the new particulate-reinforced titanium composites. The present study illustrated the feasibility of using the particulate-reinforced titanium composites as an orthopaedic implant material. |
