Processing and Characterization of a New Quaternary Alloy TiMoNbZr for Potential Biomedical Applications.

The study of new metallic biomaterials for application in bone tissue repair has improved due to the increase in life expectancy and the aging of the world population. Titanium alloys are one of the main groups of biomaterials for these applications, and beta-type titanium alloys are more suitable for long-term bone implants. The objective of this work was to process and characterize a new TiMoNbZr beta alloy.
