Porous metals are attractive due to its unique physical, mechanical, and new bone tissue ingrowth properties. In the present study, the production of highly porous Ti-6Al-4V parts by powder metallurgical technology and subsequently it's uses in in vitro bone tissue engineering is described. A space-holder method using carbamide with different particle size to produce parts with porosities between 35 and 70% were applied. The compressive strength and Young's modulus of porous Ti-6Al-4V were determined. Results indicated that stress and Young's modulus decrease with increasing porosity and pore size. The porous parts are characterized by scanning electron microscopy. Furthermore, study was to investigate the effects of three different porosities of porous Ti-6Al-4V (35, 50, and 70%) on proliferation, differentiation, and cell-matrix interaction of mouse osteoblast-like cells, MC-3T3. Results showed that the cell proliferation was significantly (p < 0.05) higher on 70% porous Ti-6Al-4V. However, synthesis of different types of extra cellular matrix proteins was also more abundant on 70% porous Ti-6Al-4V than 35 and 50% porous Ti-6Al-4V disk except some specific proteins. An increase in alkaline phosphate activity was significantly (p < 0.05) higher on 70 and 50% porous Ti-6Al-4V disk after 12 days of MC-3T3 cells incubation. Above all, results indicated that porosity (nearly 70%) of porous Ti-6Al-4V topography affects proliferation and differentiation of osteoblast-like MC-3T3 cells. The results showed that this novel process is a promise to fabricate porous biomaterials for bone implants. 相似文献

Biomaterials which combine optimum properties of strength and biocompatibility are desirable in improving the long-term performance of implantable medical devices. Our study is aimed at developing technology designed to alter the outer atomic layers of a material to give the desired compatibility with the tissue while retaining the properties of the bulk substratum. Materials used in this study were titanium vanadium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) and cobalt chromium molybdenum alloy (Co-Cr). Soda lime glass discs and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) acted as controls. A cathode of either Ti-6Al-4V or Co-Cr was used to simultaneously deposit and implant identified substrata. The attachment of human bone-derived cells (HBDC) to various materials was determined using radiolabeling or colorimetric assays. Results show that HBDC adhere preferentially to the unmodified surfaces of Ti-6Al-4V and Ti-6Al-4V on glass compared to the unmodified Co-Cr surfaces and to that of the Co-Cr on glass. Depositing Ti-6Al-4V on Co-Cr gives significantly better attachment of HBDC than when depositing Co-Cr onto Ti-6Al-4V. While cellular attachment to the created surfaces reflects that of the cathodic materials, it is not identical to these materials. Ion deposition/implantation is capable of creating permanent surfaces which reflect the adhesion of source materials not bulk substrata. 相似文献

Effects of surface treatment of Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy on biocompatibility in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Among the titanium alloys employed as implant materials, the Ti-6Al-4V alloy is still widely used. Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy samples, in untreated state and subjected to treatments in air by furnace or glow-discharge processes, were put in contact with human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) in order to evaluate their effects on biocompatibility. In HUVEC kept for 48 h in the presence of the three sample types neither cell proliferation nor protein content nor lactate dehydrogenase release in the culture medium are affected, while apoptosis is induced after 48- and 96-h contact of the cells with the untreated sample type, and after 96-h contact with the plasma treated one, the furnace treated sample type being ineffective. The expression of two adhesion molecules, intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) was also studied. The incubation of HUVEC with the three sample types for 48 or 96 h induces a significant increase in ICAM-1 protein levels, in comparison with control cells, while VCAM-1 expression is not detectable. In the same way, TNF-alpha release in the culture medium, assayed after 48- and 96-h contact of the cells with the three sample types, is significantly higher, in comparison with control, even if the highest values are registered in the presence of the untreated samples. Taken together, these data indicate that, although Ti-6Al-4V alloy samples, and in particular the treated ones, show a good biocompatibility, attention must be given to the first signs of inflammation. 相似文献

Osteoblast response to Ti implants depends not only on the chemistry of the implant but also on the physical properties of the implant surface, such as microtopography and roughness. This study was undertaken to examine early changes in cell morphology and gene expression during the early phase of osteoblast interaction with titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) surfaces of two different roughnesses. MG63 osteoblast-like cells were cultured for 2, 6, 24, and 72 h on smooth (Ra=0.18+/-0.03 microm) and rough (Ra=2.95+/-0.23 microm) Ti-6Al-4V surfaces. Changes in cell proliferation were assessed by measuring cell number after 72 h in culture. Morphological characteristics were observed by scanning electron microscopy after 2, 6, and 24 h of culture. Changes in gene expression for extracellular signal-regulated kinase 2 (Erk2), type I collagen (alpha2[I] collagen), phospholipase C-gamma2 (Plc-gamma2), and beta-actin were measured by RT-PCR after 6 and 24 h in culture. Cell number was significantly higher on the smooth surface. In scanning electron micrographs, cells on smooth Ti-6Al-4V were spherical and raised up from the surface after 2 h in culture. In contrast, cells on the rough surface adopted an irregular, elongated shape that spanned across pits in the surface. At 24 h, cells on the smooth surface had flattened, become elongate, and covered the surface. In contrast, cells on the rough surface appeared more differentiated in shape and the margins of the cells were irregular, with many processes extending out, following the contour of the surface. Of the genes examined, only Erk2 and beta-actin showed a change in expression with surface roughness. Both genes were upregulated (p<0.05) on the rough surface at 6 h. These results indicate that Ti-6Al-4V surface roughness affects osteoblast proliferation, morphology, and gene expression, and that these effects can be measured after periods as short as 2-6 h. 相似文献

Laser surface modification of Ti--6Al--4V: wear and corrosion characterization in simulated biofluid
Laser surface melting (LSM) of Ti-6Al-4V is performed in argon to improve its properties, such as microstructure, corrosion, and wear for biomedical applications. Corrosion behavior is investigated by conducting electrochemical polarization experiments in simulated body fluid (Ringer's solution) at 37 C. Wear properties are evaluated in Ringer's solution using pin-on-disc apparatus at a slow speed. Untreated Ti-6Al-4V contains alpha+beta phase. After laser surface melting, it transforms to acicular alpha embedded in the prior beta matrix. Grain growth in the range of 65-89 microm with increase in laser power from 800 to 1500 W due to increase in associated temperature is observed. The hardness of as-laserprocessed Ti-6Al-4V alloy is more (275-297 HV) than that of the untreated alloy (254 HV). Passivation currents are significantly reduced to < 4.3 microA/cm2 after laser treatment compared to untreated Ti-6Al-4V (approximately 12 microA/cm2). The wear resistance of laser-treated Ti-6Al-4V in simulated body fluid is enhanced compared to that of the untreated one. It is the highest for the one that is processed at a laser power of 800 W. Typical micro-cutting features of abrasive wear is the prominent mechanism of wear in both untreated and as-laser-treated Ti-6Al-4V. Fragmentation of wear debris assisted by microcracking was responsible for mass loss during the wear of untreated Ti-6Al-4V in Ringer's solution. 相似文献

A Ti-Nb-Sn alloy was developed as a new β-type titanium alloy which had a low Young's modulus and high strength. The Young's modulus of the Ti-Nb-Sn alloy was reduced to about 45 GPa by cold rolling, much closer to human cortical bone (10-30 GPa) than that of Ti-6Al-4V alloy (110 GPa) and other β-type titanium alloys developed for biomedical applications. The tensile strength of the Ti-Nb-Sn alloy was increased to a level greater than that of Ti-6Al-4V alloy by heat treatment after severe cold rolling. In this study the cytotoxicity of Ti-25Nb-11Sn alloy was evaluated in direct contact cell culture tests using metal disks and the bone tissue compatibility - examined using metal rods inserted into the medullary canal of rabbit femurs. The remarkable findings were that: (1) there were no significant differences in the relative growth ratio and relative absorbance ratio between cells grown with the Ti-Nb-Sn alloy, Ti-6Al-4V alloy and CP-Ti in direct contact cell culture tests; (2) there were no significant differences in the load at failure between the Ti-Nb-Sn alloy and Ti-6Al-4V alloy in pull-out metal rods tests; (3) there were no significant differences in new bone formation around metal rods between the Ti-Nb-Sn alloy and Ti-6Al-4V alloy in histological evaluations. The new Ti-Nb-Sn alloy with an elasticity closer to that of human bone is thus considered to be bioinert while also having a high degree of bone compatibility similar to that of Ti-6Al-4V alloy. 相似文献

Bioactive silica-calcium phosphate nanocomposite (SCPC) has been coated on Ti-6Al-4V implant employing an electrophoretic deposition (EPD) technique. The effects of composition and pH of the suspending medium on the zeta potential of three different SCPC formulations; SCPC25, SCPC50 and SCPC75 were analyzed. The average zeta potential of SCPC50 in pure ethanol was more negative than that of SCPC25 or SCPC75; however, the difference was not statistically significant. Discs of Ti-6Al-4V were passivated, coated with SCPC50 (200 nm-10 μm) and thermally treated at 600-800°C to produce a coating thickness in the range of 43.1 ± 5.7 to 30.1 ± 4.6 μm. After treatment at 600, 700, and 800°C, the adhesion strength at the SCPC50/Ti-6Al-4V interface was 42.6 ± 3.6, 44.7 ± 8.7, and 47.2 ± 4.3 MPa, respectively. SEM-EDX analyses of SCPC50-coated Ti-6Al-4V preimmersed in PBS for 7 days showed the formation of a Ca-deficient hydroxyapatite surface layer. ICP-OES analyses of the immersing solution (n = 6) showed an increase in the ionic concentration of Si from 3.3 ± 0.9 to 5.0 ± 1.2 ppm between days 1 and 4; after which no significant change in the Si concentration was measured. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells attached to the SCPC50-coated implants expressed significantly higher (p < 0.05) alkaline phosphatase activity (82.4 ± 25.6 nmoles p-NP/mg protein/min) than that expressed by cells attached to HA-coated or uncoated implants. Results of the study suggest that bioactive SCPC50 can efficiently be coated on Ti-6Al-4V using EPD. The SCPC50 coating has the potential to enhance bone integration with the orthopedic implant. 相似文献

Early bone apposition in vivo on plasma-sprayed and electrochemically deposited hydroxyapatite coatings on titanium alloy 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Three different implants, bare Ti-6Al-4V alloy, Ti-6Al-4V alloy coated with plasma-sprayed hydroxyapatite (PSHA), and Ti-6Al-4V alloy coated with electrochemically deposited hydroxyapatite (EDHA), were implanted into canine trabecular bone for 6 h, 7, and 14 days, respectively. Environmental scanning electron microscopy study showed that PSHA coatings had higher bone apposition ratios than those exhibited by bare Ti-6Al-4V and EDHA coatings after 7 days; however, at 14 days after implantation, EDHA and PSHA coatings exhibited similar bone apposition ratios, much higher than that for bare Ti-6Al-4V. The ultrastructure of the bone/implant interface observed by transmission electron microscope showed that the earliest mineralization (6 h-7 days) was in the form of nano-ribbon cluster mineral deposits with a Ca/P atomic ratio lower than that of hydroxyapatite. Later-stage mineralization (7-14 days) resulted in bone-like tissue with the characteristic templating of self-assembled collagen fibrils by HA platelets. Though adhesion of EDHA coatings to Ti-6Al-4V substrate proved problematical and clearly needs to be addressed through appropriate manipulation of electrodepositon parameters, the finely textured microstructure of EDHA coatings appears to provide significant advantage for the integration of mineralized bone tissue into the coatings. 相似文献

After using cast titanium prostheses in clinical dental practice, severe wear of titanium teeth has been observed. This in vitro study evaluated the wear behavior of teeth made with several cast titanium alloys containing copper (CP Ti+3.0 wt% Cu; CP Ti+5.0 wt% Cu; Ti-6Al-4V +1.0 wt% Cu; Ti-6Al-4V+4.0 wt% Cu) and compared the results with those for commercially pure (CP) titanium, Ti-6Al-4V, and gold alloy. Wear testing was performed by repeatedly grinding upper and lower teeth under flowing water in an experimental testing apparatus. Wear resistance was assessed as volume loss (mm(3)) at 5kgf (grinding force) after 50,000 strokes. Greater wear was found for the six types of titanium than for the gold alloy. The wear resistance of the experimental CP Ti+Cu and Ti-6Al-4V+Cu alloys was better than that of CP titanium and Ti-6Al-4V, respectively. Although the gold alloy had the best wear property, the 4% Cu in Ti-6Al-4V alloy exhibited the best results among the titanium metals. Alloying with copper, which introduced the alpha Ti/Ti(2)Cu eutectoid, seemed to improve the wear resistance. 相似文献

Stem modularity in total hip replacement introduces an additional taper joint between Ti-6Al-4V stem components with the potential for fretting corrosion processes. One possible way to reduce the susceptibility of the Ti-6Al-4V/Ti-6Al-4V interface to fretting is the surface modification of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy. Among the tested, industrially available surface treatments, a combination of two deep anodic spark deposition treatments followed by barrel polishing resulted in a four times lower material release with respect to untreated, machined fretting pad surfaces. The fretting release has been quantified by means of radiotracers introduced in the alloy surface by proton irradiation. In a simple sphere on flat geometry, the semispherical fretting pads were pressed against flat, dog-bone shaped Ti-6Al-4V fatigue samples cyclically loaded at 4 Hz. In this way a cyclic displacement amplitude along the surfaces of 20 mum has been achieved. A further simplification consisted in the use of deionized water as lubricant. A comparison of the radiotracer results with an electrochemical material characterization after selected treatments by potentiostatic tests of modular stems in 0.9% NaCl at 40 degrees C for 10 days confirmed the benefit of deep anodic spark deposition and subsequent barrel polishing for improving the fretting behavior of Ti-6Al-4V. 相似文献

In spite of observed differences at the interface between boon and either commercially pure titanium [Ti(cpi)] or titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V), the mechanism of such a response is ill understood. This prompted further investigation of the influence of similar metals on human bone-derived cells (HBDCs). This study investigated the influence of Ti(cpi) and its alloy on osteoblastic proteins formed by HBDCs grown for 5, 7, 10, and 14 days on these metals and compared them to cells grown on tissue culture polystyrene plates. Messenger RNA and translated proteins that form an array of osteogenic parameters were determined: alkaline phosphatase (ALP), thrombospondin, osteopontin, osteocalcin (OC), osteonectin (ON/SPARC), type I collagen (Col I) and bone sialoprotein (BSP). At the four predetermined time points, cells grown on either Ti(cpi) or Ti-6Al-4V generally expressed similar mRNA levels, while levels of their respective proteins differed. Cells on Ti(cpi) had peak levels for most proteins at day 7, whereas those on Ti-6Al-4V peaked at either day 5 and/or day 7. At day 5 cells grown on Ti-6Al-4V had higher levels of ALP, Col I, ON/SPARC, OC, and BSP than those in Ti(cpi); this difference was not maintained at later time points in culture. The differential regulation of proteins occurring between cells from the same patient grown on titanium and its alloy implies that HBDCs respond to small differences in the surface chemistry and/or microcrystallinity. 相似文献

Various surface modifications have been applied to titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) implants, in an attempt to enhance osseointegration; crucial for ideal prosthetic fixation. Despite the numerous studies demonstrating that peptide-modified surfaces influence in vitro cellular behavior, there is relatively little data reporting their effects on bone remodeling. The objective of this article was to examine the effects of chemically modifying Ti-6Al-4V surfaces with a common RGD sequence, a 15-residue peptide containing GRGDSP (glycine-arginine-glycine-aspartate-serine-proline), on the modulation of bone remodeling. The expression of proteins known to be associated with osseous matrix and bone resorption were studied during the growth of human bone-derived cells (HBDC) on these peptide-modified surfaces. HBDC grown for 7 days on RGD surfaces displayed significantly increased levels of osteocalcin, and pro-collagen Ialpha1 mRNAs, compared with the production by HBDC grown on the native Ti-6Al-4V. A pattern that was also reflected at the protein levels for osteocalcin, type I collagen, and bone sialoprotein. Moreover, HBDC grown for 7 and 14 days on RGD-modified Ti-6Al-4V expressed significantly higher level of osteoclast differentiation factors and lower levels of osteoprotegerin and IL-6 proteins compared with other surfaces tested. These results suggest that different chemical treatments of implant material (Ti-6Al-4V) surface result in differential bone responses, not only their ability to form bone but also to stimulate osteoclastic formation. 相似文献

TEM and STEM analysis on heat-treated and in vitro plasma-sprayed hydroxyapatite/Ti-6Al-4V composite coatings 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A cogent understanding of the microstructure, and indeed nano-structure, of hydroxyapatite (HA) and the interface between Ti-6Al-4V and HA is crucial to its appropriateness as a biomaterials. This paper reports the analysis of plasma-sprayed HA/Ti-6Al-4V composites by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) to elucidate the intricate nature of the materials following plasma spray processing and in vitro evaluation. The novel Ti-6Al-4V/HA composite coating, with approximately 48 wt% HA, had demonstrated attractive tensile adhesion strength (approximately 28 MPa) and improved Young's modulus (approximately 55 GPa). Experimental results demonstrated that amorphous calcium phosphate and fine HA grains were formed during rapid splat solidification in the as-sprayed composite coatings. Small Ti-6Al-4V grains were observed adjacent to the amorphous calcium phosphate. The coatings were further heat treated at 600 degrees C for 6 h, and significant crystallisation of the amorphous calcium phosphate phase took place. However, complete crystallisation was not achieved at this temperature, as the coatings invariably contained a small amount of amorphous calcium phosphate phase in some local regions. After immersion in simulated body fluid for 2 weeks and 10 weeks, TEM and STEM confirmed that the interfaces inside the coating maintained good microstructural integrity. 相似文献

The biocompatibility of the Ti-7.5Mo alloy was examined, because the alloy has a high-strength/modulus ratio and thus is a potential candidate for orthopedic applications. Cell viability assay using 3T3 cells revealed that the Ti-7.5Mo did not induce apparent cell death, when the cells were grown on disks made of the alloy or incubated with the alloy-conditioned medium at 37 or 72 degrees C for 24-72h. The Ti-6Al-4V alloy was used as a control and did not cause apparent cell death either. Moreover, pins of 6mm long and 2mm in diameter of Ti-7.5Mo and Ti-6Al-4V were implanted into the left and right rabbit femurs, respectively, for 6, 12 and 26 weeks. New bone tissue grew to surround the pins, which spanned cortical and marrow regions, as shown by toluidine blue-stained bone sections of the three time points. Strikingly, the amount of new bone encircling the Ti-7.5Mo implant was approximate two-folds of that at Ti-6Al-4V by 26 weeks post-implantation. This facilitation of bone formation could be associated with the unique properties, such as a low modulus and the composition of Mo, of the Ti-7.5Mo. 相似文献

A novel technique for preparing the Ca- and P-containing ceramic coating on Ti-6Al-4V alloy by micro-arc oxidation (MAO) was developed successfully in this paper. In the new technique, Ti alloy first was micro-arc oxidated in P-containing electrolyte, and then it was micro-arc oxidated in Ca-containing electrolyte. This technique can avoid the undesired chemical reaction between Ca-containing salt and P-containing salt in electrolyte. The surface morphologies, composition, and phases of MAO coatings were studied by means of SEM, EDS, and XRD. The results show that the P- and Ca-containing coating on Ti-6Al-4V alloy contains Ti, TiO(2) (rutile), alpha-Ca(PO(3))(2), CaTiO(3), and AlTi(3). There are many small and uniform pores in the coating. Most of these pores are coterminous. The microhardness of the coating is 720 HV and higher than that of Ti-6Al-4V alloy (220 HV). The coating is more wear-resistant than Ti-6Al-4V alloy under the lubricant of the artificial saliva and not easy to desquamate from the substrate of Ti-6Al-4V alloy. 相似文献

Conjoint corrosion and wear in titanium alloys. 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
When considering titanium alloys for orthopaedic applications it is important to examine the conjoint action of corrosion and wear. In this study we investigate the corrosion and wear behaviour of Ti-6Al-4V, Ti-6Al-7Nb and Ti-13Nb-13Zr in phosphate buffered saline (PBS), bovine albumin solutions in PBS and 10% foetal calf serum solutions in PBS. The tests were performed under four different conditions to evaluate the influence of wear on the corrosion and corrosion on the wear behaviour as follows: corrosion without wear, wear-accelerated corrosion, wear in a non-corrosive environment and wear in a corrosive environment. The corrosion behaviour was investigated using cyclic polarisation studies to measure the ability of the surface to repassivate following breakdown of the passive layer. The properties of the repassivated layer were evaluated by measuring changes in the surface hardness of the alloys. The amount of wear that had occurred was assessed from weight changes and measurement of the depth of the wear scar. It was found that in the presence of wear without corrosion the wear behaviour of Ti-13Nb-13Zr was greater than that of Ti-6Al-7Nb or Ti-6Al-4V and that in the presence of proteins the wear of all three alloys is reduced. In the presence of corrosion without wear Ti-13Nb-13Zr was more corrosion resistant than Ti-6Al-7Nb which was more corrosion resistant than Ti-6Al-4V without proteins whereas in the presence of protein the corrosion resistance of Ti-13Nb-13Zr and Ti-6Al-7Nb was reduced and that of Ti-6Al-4V increased. In the presence of corrosion and wear the corrosion resistance of Ti-13Nb-13Zr is higher than that of Ti-6Al-7Nb or Ti-6Al-4V in PBS but in the presence of proteins the corrosion resistance of Ti-13Nb-13Zr and Ti-6Al-7Nb are very similar but higher than that of Ti-6Al-4V. The wear of Ti-13Nb-13Zr is lower than that of Ti-6Al-7Nb and Ti-6Al-4V with or without the presence of proteins in a corrosive environment. Therefore the overall degradation when both corrosion and wear processes are occurring is lowest for Ti-13Nb-13Zr and highest for Ti-6Al-4V and the presence of proteins reduces the degradation of all three alloys. 相似文献

The adhesion of bovine chondrocytes and human osteoblasts to three titania-based coatings, formed by plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO), was compared to that on uncoated Ti-6Al-4V substrates, and some comparisons were also made with plasma sprayed hydroxyapatite (HA) coatings. This was done using a centrifuge, with accelerations of up to 160,000?g, so as to induce buoyancy forces that created normal or shear stresses at the interface. It is shown that, on all surfaces, it was easier to remove cells under normal loading than under shear loading. Cell adhesion to the PEO coatings was stronger than that on Ti-6Al-4V and similar to that on HA. Cell proliferation rates were relatively high on one of the PEO coatings, which was virtually free of aluminium, but low on the other two, which contained significant levels of aluminium. It is concluded that the Al-free PEO coating offers promise for application to prosthetic implants. 相似文献

Ti-6Al-4V hour-glass shaped rotating beam specimens with duplex microstructure were processed by electric discharge machining (EDM). A comparatively high peak current of 29A was utilized in order to increase surface roughness for improved osteointegration. High cycle fatigue (HCF) tests were performed in rotating beam loading (R=-1) on these EDM specimens and results were compared with electrolytically polished specimens serving as reference. As expected, the HCF performance of EDM specimens was inferior to the electrolytically polished specimens. A detailed study of fatigue crack nucleation and microcrack growth was carried out on failed specimens by SEM. The poor HCF strength of EDM specimens is explained by early crack nucleation due to the high notch sensitivity of Ti-6Al-4V. In addition, process-induced residual tensile stresses and microstructural effects may also account for the drastic loss in HCF performance relative to the electropolished baseline. 相似文献
