Nucleation and growth of apatite on chemically treated titanium alloy: an electrochemical impedance spectroscopy study.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Bone-like apatite formed on the surface of Ti6Al4V pretreated with NaOH solution after having been immersed in simulated body fluid (SBF), while no apatite formed on the surface of untreated Ti6Al4V. In the present study, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurement was used to investigate the nucleation and growth of apatite on chemically treated Ti6Al4V immersed in the SBF solution, and the difference between the behaviors of treated and untreated Ti6Al4V. Appropriate equivalent circuit models were constructed to describe the nucleation and growth of apatite, and thin oxide film formed on the surface of untreated Ti6Al4V. It was found that EIS is a useful method for investigating the nucleation and growth of bone-like apatite on Ti6Al4V pretreated with NaOH solution.

Electronic Properties of TiO2 Nanoparticles Films and the Effect on Apatite-Forming Ability
Nanoparticle-covered electrodes have altered properties as compared to conventional electrodes with same chemical composition. The changes originate from the large surface area and enhanced conduction. To test the mineralization capacity of such materials, TiO2 nanoparticles were deposited on titanium and gold substrates. The electrochemical properties were investigated using cyclic voltammetry...
متن کاملCalcium-ion incorporation into titanium surfaces accompanied by electrochemical apatite-deposition.
The depths of calcium-ion incorporation into a commercially pure titanium and an experimental beta-type titanium alloy were determined using Auger electron spectroscopy. After the electrochemical deposition of apatite, new compositional gradients appeared in the profiles in which the Ca and P concentrations gradually decreased as a function of the depth up to 6-8 nm. The relative concentration ...
