| Summary: | Taking into account the speed of industrial development and market request for novel biocompatible alloys, the urge of creating sustainable materials pushes the research forward. Among the many biomaterials that can be incorporated into the human body, in the class of metal alloys, titanium and titanium alloys are regarded as some of the most important biomaterials because of their resistance to the effects of body fluids, high tensile strength, flexibility, and corrosion resistance, as well as their unique combination of strength and biocompatibility. In present chapter several novel recipes for titanium alloys are presented and characterized (Ti-Mo-Si and Ti-Mo-Zr-Ta-Si systems). |
