Laser Additive Manufacturing of Titanium-Based Implants: A Review
Abstract
Titanium and its alloys exhibit a unique combination of mechanical, physical properties and corrosion resistance behaviour which makes them desirable for aerospace, industrial, chemical, medical and energy industries. The selective addition of alloying elements to titanium enables a wide range of physical and mechanical properties to be obtained. Ti-based alloys are finding ever-increasing applications in biomaterials due to their excellent mechanical, physical and biological performance. Intense researches are being pursued in the development of new Ti-based alloys with bio-functionalization closer to human bone, owing to their excellent mechanical strength and resilience when compared to alternative biomaterials, such as polymers and ceramics. Several manufacturing techniques are capable of producing porous materials. There is a need to control pore size, shape, orientation and distribution. This work reviews the application of Ti-based alloys in the biomedical industry and also proposes laser additive manufacture process for the manufacture of medical implants.
