In recent years, nanostructured oxide films on titanium alloy surfaces have gained significant interest due to their electrical, catalytic and biological properties. In literature, there is variety of different approaches to fabricate nanostructured oxide films. Among these methods, anodization technique, which allows fine-tuning of oxide film thickness, feature size, topography and chemistry, is one of the most popular approaches to fabricate nanostructured oxide films on titanium alloys, and it has been widely investigated for orthopedic applications. Briefly, anodization is the growth of a controlled oxide film on a metallic component attached to the anode of an electrochemical cell. This review provides an overview of the anodization technique to grow nanostructured oxide films on titanium and titanium alloys and summarizes the interactions between anodized titanium alloy surfaces with cells in terms of cellular adhesion, proliferation and differentiation. It will start with summarizing the mechanism of nanofeatured oxide fabrication on titanium alloys and then switch its focus on the latest findings for anodization of titanium alloys, including the use of fluoride free electrolytes and anodization of 3D titanium foams. The review will also highlight areas requiring further research to successfully translate anodized titanium alloys to clinics for orthopedic applications.

Anodization of titanium alloys for orthopedic applications İzmir, Merve; Ercan, Batur; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2018) In recent years, nanostructured oxide films on titanium alloy surfaces have gained significant interest due to their electrical, catalytic and biological properties, leading to an extensive effort to engineer nanostructured oxide films on titanium and titanium alloy surfaces. In literature, there is a variety of different approaches to fabricate nanostructured oxide films, including hydrothermal treatment, sol-gel synthesis, physical vapor deposition, electrodeposition, and etc. Among these methods, electro...
Experimental investigation of the effect of CNT addition on the strength of CFRP curved composite beams Arca, M.A.; Uyar, I.; Çöker, Demirkan (2015-01-01) Carbon nanotubes (CNT) have been attracting attention as a toughening material in composite matrix due to their excellent mechanical properties. However, superior properties of CNTs have not yet been realized in the strengthening of composites against fracture. This study focuses on investigating the effect of CNT variation in the epoxy resin on the strength of curved composite beams. Specimens are [0/90] fabric carbon/epoxy composite laminates manufactured by hand layup technique 3 % wt CNT fractions in th...

ELECTROLESS DEPOSITION OF OXIDATION RESISTANT HIGH TEMPERATURE COATINGS IN MOLTEN SALT Ömür, İshak Emre; Karakaya, İshak; Erdoğan, Metehan; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2021-9-10) Molybdenum and molybdenum alloy (TZM) can be protected against oxygen in hightemperature environment by developing silicide coating on their surface without damaging their mechanical properties. In this study, molybdenum di-silicide was coated on pure molybdenum and its alloy (TZM) surfaces using a molten salt method. NaCl-KCl-NaF eutectic composition was used as salt mixture, and Na2SiF6 and silicon powder were added to the system as silicon source. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Inductively Coupled Plasma ...
