Fabrication of low-cost beta-type Ti-Mn alloys for biomedical applications by metal injection molding process and their mechanical properties

- Low-cost Ti-Mn alloys were developed by using a near-net shape fabrication process.
- Microstructural features include pores, titanium carbides and the athermal ω phase.
- The alloys' mechanical behavior is greatly affected by Mn content and microstructure.
- Ti-Mn alloys show promising results for biomedical applications.
