Investigation of the production and mechanical properties of porous Beta Titanium alloy compacts prepared by powder metallurgy processes for biomedical applications

Titanium and its alloys are known to be widely used for biomedical applications due to their biocompatibility, and excellent corrosion resistance. The introduction of porosity into the metals may reduce the stiffness to match that of bone and allow the completion of bone ingrowth into the porosity o...
