Anodization coloring of titanium tools or implants is one of the common methods for the differentiation of each application by its size or type. Commercial purity titanium grade 4 plates (50 × 20 × 0.1 mm) were tested to obtain their electrochemical and other technological properties.

This article represents a multidisciplinary approach to biomechanics (engineering + medicine) in the field of "collum femoris" fractures. One possible treatment method for femoral neck fractures, especially for young people, is the application of cancellous (i.e.

Article Synopsis
  • The paper examines the biomechanics of locking cortical bone screws in angularly stable plates used in treating bone fractures.
  • Key issues arise during the removal of titanium-alloy implants, particularly with the stripping of the screw head's internal hexagon, which affects efficient extraction.
  • Experimental findings indicate that screws with Torx type heads are superior to other designs in terms of reduced stress and strain, leading to a recommendation for all manufacturers to adopt this head type.

The paper addresses laboratory preparation and antibacterial activity testing of kaolinite/nanoTiO2 composite in respect of the daylight irradiation time. Kaolinite/nanoTiO2 composites with 20 and 40 wt% of TiO2 were laboratory prepared, dried at 105 °C and calcined at 600 °C. The calcination caused transformation of kaolinite to metakaolinite and origination of the metakaolinite/nanoTiO2 composite.
