O projektu
I propose a new concept to combine the mechanical strength of Ti with the bioactivity of hydroxyapatite (HA). The biomimetic processing of HA will avoid the decomposition of HA and Ti and the chemical activation of the Ti surface will promote the covalent bonding with HA. A novelty of the project is the fabrication of Ti structures by additive manufacturing. In addition to carry out the characterization of the HA/Ti interface, the project involves the determination of the fracture mechanisms.
