| Abstract Scope |
Titanium alloys are widely used in dental implants and are often modified with hydroxyapatite (HA) to enhance their bioactivity and reduce elastic modulus, thereby shortening the healing period after implantation. Compared with traditional heating methods, microwave heating has the potential to enable more efficient synthesis of composites based on titanium alloy and HA due to the unique microwave volumetric and selective thermal effects. Over the past decade, researchers at Central South University (CSU) have focused on utilizing microwave energy to prepare composites based on titanium alloy and HA through coating and sintering methods, aiming to simultaneously optimize their mechanical and biological properties. This study reviewed their research progress in this field, with an aim to guide the preparation of relevant materials. |
