Functionally Graded Metallic Biomaterials

  • Chapter
Advances in Metallic Biomaterials

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Biomaterials Science and Engineering ((SSBSE,volume 4))

Abstract

In functionally graded materials (FGMs), the composition and/or microstructure gradually changes over the volume [3–5], resulting in corresponding changes in the properties of the materials. There are many areas of application for FGMs, and one of them is biomedical application. In this chapter, at first, the merits of the metallic biomaterials with graded composition and/or microstructure are described. Then, microstructures and mechanical properties of Ti/biodegradable-polymer FGMs for bone tissue by spark plasma sintering (SPS) method, continuous graded composition in Ti–ZrO2 bio-FGMs by mixed-powder pouring method, and Al-based FGMs containing TiO2 nanoparticles with antibacterial activity by a centrifugal mixed-powder method are introduced. Also, our experimental results of white ceramic coating on Ti–29Nb–13Ta–4.6Zr alloy for dental application and magnetic graded materials by inhomogeneous heat treatment of SUS304 stainless steel are given.
