In Vitro Corrosion Assessment of Additively Manufactured Porous NiTi Structures for Bone Fixation Applications
NiTi alloys possess distinct functional properties (i.e., shape memory effect and superelasticity) and biocompatibility, making them appealing for bone fixation applications. Additive manufacturing offers an alternative method for fabricating NiTi parts, which are known to be very difficult to machi...
