Sintering of Ti-based biomedical alloys with increased oxygen content from elemental powders

Abstract

Revived interest for beta Ti alloys with increased oxygen content is motivated by the prospect of achieving material with low modulus and high strength simultaneously. Fine tuning of amount of oxygen and beta stabilizing elements is critical for achieving good mechanical properties.
