Abstract

In this study, highly ordered nanotubular surface of Ti-25Ta-xHf alloys for dental applications was researched. Ti-25Ta-xHf alloys were contained from 0% to 15% Hf content. Formation of nanotubular structure was achieved by an electrochemical method in 1M $H_3PO_4$ electrolytes containing 0.8%wt. % NaF.
