The mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of Ti alloys for medical implants have been investigated. Ti, Ti-15Sn-4Nb and Ti-15Sn-4Nb-2Zr alloys were melted in arc furnace and the corrosion resistance of Ti alloys was evaluated by anodic polarization test. The microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti alloys were analysed by optical microscope, hardness and tensile tester. The tensile strength of the pure-Ti improved by addition of Sn and Nb and Ti-15Sn-4Nb alloy showed better Rockwell hardness compared with pure Ti. However, there was no significant difference in corrosion resistance between thoseTi-alloys made of Pure-Ti and Ti-15Sn-4Nb alloy. The passive films on the Ti-15Sn-4Nb alloy in air atmosphere consisted of $TiO_2$, SnO and NbO as demonstrated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)

The profile ring rolling process of Ti-6Al-4V alloy was designed by finite element(FE) simulation and experimental analysis. The design includes geometry design and optimization of process variables. The geometry design such as initial billet and blank sizes, and final rolled ring shape was carried out with the calculation method based on the uniform deformation concept between the wall thickness and ring height. FEM simulation was used to calculate the state variables such as strain, strain rate and temperature and to predict the formation of forming defects during ring rolling process. Finally, the mechanical properties of profiled Ti-6Al-4V alloy ring product were analyzed with the evolution of microstructures during the ring rolling process.

The high temperature deformation of mechanically alloyed Al-Ti-Si alloy (Al-9.64wt% Ti-1.56wt% Si) was investigated by performing constant load compression creep tests over the temperature range of $673^\circC$K to $723^\circC$K. From the calculation based on the modified power law creep equation for dispersion strengthened alloy, the true creep activation energy, was 176kJ/mole, the true stress exponent was 4.9. Considering the value of activation energy, stress exponent, the shape of primary creep region, it could be concluded that creep deformation in the MA Al-Ti-Si alloy is controlled by dislocation climb.

In order to investigate nanotube morphology change of Ti-6Al-4V alloys by heat treatments, the Ti-6Al-4V alloys were used in this study. In non-treated Ti-6Al-4V alloy case, nanotubes only exhibited at ${\alpha}$ phase region with dissolved V-oxide area of ${\beta}$ phase. However, in Ti-6Al-4V alloy at $800^{\circ}C$ WQ case, nanotubes exhibited at both ${\alpha}$ and ${\beta}$ phase region. Electrochemical corrosion studies showed that the nanotubular alloy at $800^{\circ}C$WQ possesses slightly higher corrosion resistance than non-treated nanotubular alloy.

Ti-13Nb-13Zr (TNZ) alloy has attracted considerable research attention in the last decade as a suitable substitute for the commercially used Ti-6Al-4V (TAV) alloy for orthopedic and dental implant applications. Hence, in the present work, a comparative evaluation has been performed on the electrochemical corrosion behavior of TNZ and TAV alloys in 0.9 wt.% NaCl solution. The result of the study showed that both the alloys had similar electrochemical behavior. The corrosion resistance of TAV alloy is found to be marginally superior to that of TNZ alloy.

A ceramic coating is a surface treatment method that is being used widely in the industrial field, recently. Ni-P plating is also being used widely because of its corrosion resistance and low cost. An anodizing method is applicable to aluminum alloy. An anodizing method generates a thick oxide layer on the surface and then, that heightens hardness and protects the surface. These surface treatments are applied to various mechanical components and treated surfaces relatively move one another. In this study, tribological characteristics of Ni-P plating and TiAlN coating on anodized Al alloy are compared. The counterpart, anodized Al alloy, is worn out abrasively by Ni-P plating and TiAlN coating that have higher hardness. Abrasively worn debris accumulated on the surfaces of Ni-P plating and TiAlN coating, and then transferred layer is formed. This transferred layer affects the amplitude of variation of friction coefficient, which is related to noise and vibration. The amplitude of variation of friction coefficient of Ni-P plating is lower than those of TiAlN coating during the tests.

In this study, ion release and biocompatibility of sintered Ni-Cr-Ti alloy for dental prosthodontics have been researched by corrosion and cell culture test. The microstructures of the alloys were observed by optical microscope, and corrosion behavior was investigated using potentiostat (Model PARSTAT 2273, EG&G, USA). Cell culture was carried out using hGf cell in DMEM (Welgene Inc., South Korea) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) (Welgene Inc., South Korea) and antibiotic antimycotic solution (Welgene Inc., South Korea). After corrosion and cell culture test, surface morphologies were observed by field-emission scanning electron microscopy. For wettability behaviors, contact angles were measured by wettability test. As the content of Ti increased, the number of pit decreased and the corrosion resistance was improved from anodic polarization test, also, polarization resistance of samples containing Ti remarkably improved as compared with the alloy not containing Ti. The sintered alloy showed a low contact angle due to the pores formed on the surface. The addition of Ti element showed that the cell survival rate was better than that of the control group.

Cp-Ti and Ti-6Al-4V alloys commonly used dental implant materials, particularly for orthopaedic and osteosynthesis because of its suitable mechanical properties and excellent biocompatibility. This alloys have excellent corrosion behavior in the clinical environment. The first factor to decide the success of dental implantation is sufficient osseointegration and high corrosion resistance between on implant fixture and its surrounding bone tissue. In this study, in order to increase corrosion resistance and biocompatibility of Cp-Ti and Ti-6Al-4V alloy that surface of manufactured alloy was coated with TiN by RF-magnetron sputtering method. The electrochemical behavior of TiN coated Cp-Ti and Ti-6Al-4V alloy were investigated using potentiodynamic (EG&G Co, PARSTAT 2273. USA) and potentiostatic test (250mV) in 0.9% NaCl solution at 36.5 $\pm$ 1$^{\circ}C$. These results are as follows : 1. From the microstructure analysis, Cp-Ti showed the acicular structure of $\alpha$-phase and Ti-6Al-4V showed the micro-acicular structure of ${\alpha}+{\beta}$ phase. 2. From the potentiodynamic test, Ecorr value of Cp-Ti and Ti-6Al-4V alloys showed -702.48mV and -319.87mV, respectively. Ti-6Al-4V alloy value was higher than Cp-Ti alloy. 3. From the analysis of TiN and coated layer, TIN coated surface showed columnar structure with 800 nm thickness. 4. The corrosion resistance of TiN coated Cp-Ti and Ti-6Al-4V alloys were higher than those of the non-coated Ti alloys in 0.9% NaCl solution from potentiodynamic test, indicating better protective effect. 5. The passivation current density of TiN coated Cp-Ti and Ti-6Al-4V alloys were smaller than that of the noncoated implant fixture in 0.9% NaCl solution, indicating the good protective effect resulting from more compact and homogeneous layer formation.

The volume expansions of $Ti_{0.95}Zr_{0.05}V_{0.4}Mn_{1.45}Fe_{0.1}Cr_{0.05}$ alloy during hydrogenation with various conditions have been investigated. The theoretical volume expansion measured with XRD for this alloy with hydrogenation was 21%. The apparent volume expansion of this alloy ingot with hydrogenation was composed of two effects. One is a hydrogenation and the other is a pulverization. The apparent volume of free alloy powder was 1.8 times greater than that of an ingot, implying the pulverization effect on the apparent volume expansion is 80%. The apparent volume expansion of the alloy ingot with hydrogenation under a unconstrained condition was about 80 (${\pm}15$)%, much smaller than that of free alloy powder which expected as 118%. In addition, The apparent volume expansion of the alloy ingot with hydrogenation under a constrained condition(Al container) was about 50%, much smaller than that of the unconsrained. This reduced apparent volume expansion of the alloy ingot could be attributed to an arrangement of alloy powder keeping its original shape of the ingot even after hydrogenation.
