Abstract
⺠17-4 PH steel foams for implant applications were produced by space holder method. ⺠Metals released from steel foams were investigated in the SBF and artificial saliva. ⺠Weight loss from steel foams was also investigated in the SBF and artificial saliva. ⺠Metal release was not higher than reference levels in human body. ⺠Pore properties and mechanical properties were similar to human cancellous bone.
