Abstract
⺠Anatase-rich TiO2 and rutile-rich TiO2 coatings were successfully grown on β-Ti alloy. ⺠Rutile-rich TiO2 coatings achieved an enhanced in vitro biocompatibility. ⺠The osteoblast and TiO2 interaction is fully explored in this study. ⺠Osteoblast grows into MAO-TiO2 structure and no micro-gap found on rutile-rich TiO2. ⺠MAO can be a novel surface-modification method on β-Ti alloy for medical implants.
