Influence of Heat Treatment and UV Irradiation on the Wettability of Ti35Nb10Ta Nanotubes

The implant osseointegration rate depends on the surface’s topography and chemical composition. There is a growing interest in the anodic oxidation process to obtain an oxide layer with a nanotube morphology on beta titanium alloys. This surface treatment presents large surface area, nanoscale rugos...
