High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are emerging solid solutions composed of five or more elements, being recognized for their unique engineering properties attributed to high configurational entropy and other factors, making them attractive for biomedical applications. Micro-arc oxidation is a versatile, low-cost technique used to coat Ti surfaces with a porous and thick oxide, which is powerful …
In orthopedy, total joint replacements for hip (THR) and knee (TKR) based on titanium have been the main focus of researchers in the biomedical area, once the region supports critical biomechanical loads of the human body joints, which expose the materials to constant corrosion and wear mechanisms, resulting in a decay of their lifespan. The Ti-6Al-4V alloy (ASTM F136) is the most used ti…
The present study focuses on developing a new metal matrix composite from commercially pure titanium grade 2 and metal oxides of interest to the biomedical field (TiO2, Al2O3, MoO3, MnO2, and Fe2O3) as reinforcement. The composite will be formed by argon arc-melting, with a mixture of oxide particles in the proportion of 5% volumetric to titanium. The composite will subsequently be subjec…
The scientific community has been challenged to find materials that enhance the durability and performance of orthopedic prostheses, such as hip and knee prostheses. Among the promising alternatives, titanium-niobium (Ti-Nb) alloys stand out as non-toxic and non-allergenic materials that group high specific mechanical strength with low elastic modulus. Compositions like the Ti-15Nb alloy …
In recent years, high entropy alloys (HEAs) composed of 5 or more elements in a proportion close to equimolar have been developed. These materials have been recognized for their high mechanical strength, ductility, and corrosion resistance, which have attracted attention in the biomedical field. However, the currently developed high entropy alloys do not have adequate mechanical, electroc…
In recent years, high entropy alloys (HEAs) composed of 5 or more elements have been developed. These materials have been recognized for their high mechanical strength, ductility, and corrosion resistance, attracting attention for biomedical use. However, the currently developed high entropy alloys need adequate mechanical, electrochemical, and biological properties for biomaterials. This…
Biomedical titanium (Ti) alloys have been developed mainly for orthopedic and dental implants, combining better mechanical and electrochemical properties, and biocompatibility than others commercial biomaterials, such as stainless steel 316L and Co-Cr-Mo alloys. However, the actual Ti alloys do not avoid common problems happened in implantable materials, such as stress shielding effect, l…
Titanium (Ti) and its alloys have been employed mainly as biomaterials, in special as hard tissue replacements in dental and orthopedic fields. The combination of high mechanical strength, low density, good corrosion resistance, relative Young's modulus and recognized biocompatibility, result in better adaptation of Ti alloys with adjacent bone tissues (better than stainless steel 316L an…

This study focuses on the development of a new metal matrix composite from pure commercial grade 2 titanium and metal oxides of interest in the biomedical field (TiO2, Al2O3, MoO3, MnO2, and Fe2O3). The composite will be formed by arc melting, with the addition of equal amounts of oxide particles in the proportion of 1%, 3%, and 5% by volume in relation to the titanium. The composite will…
