- 2016 February 26, “Apatite Formation and Biocompatibility of a Low Young’s Modulus Ti-Nb-Sn Alloy Treated with Anodic Oxidation and Hot Water”, in PLOS ONE[1], :
- AO treatment induced TiO 2 formation on the Ti surface and the crystal structure of TiO 2 varied with electrochemical conditions during AO. TiO 2 exhibits photocatalicity and superhydrophilicity, and it is used as an environmental photocatalyst for degrading toxic organic pollutants, bacteria and viruses absorbed on its surface under ultraviolet (UV) light illumination.
