Abstract
Porous materials are needed for the development of new surgical implants wh ere reliable implant-to-bone fixation is accomplished. Here we report a met hod based on P/M technology to obtain titanium alloys with controlled poros ity and good mechanical properties due to the use of nanocrystalline powder s, with means of the traditional sintering techniques combined with hot iso static pressing (HIP).
