Abstract

Abstract : Grain‐refinement by employing high pressure torsion can not only eliminate the inhomogeneity of Ti‐6Al‐4V substrate, but also improve the corrosion resistance and adhesion strength of fabricated TiO2 nanotubes. It is thereby a promising strategy to develop metallic biomaterials for bone replacement.
