Investigation into the surface modification of Ti-6Al-4V to facilitate antimicrobial ionic silver integration for use in implantable orthopaedic devices
Malignant bone tumours often require a patient to make the choice between limb salvage surgery and complete amputation. The Ti-6Al-4V alloy is the material of choice for implantable orthopaedic devices as it provides a favourable combination of biocompatibility, corrosion resistance and mechanical p...
