Hydrothermal treatment of etched titanium: A potential surface nano-modification technique for enhanced biocompatibility

In conclusion, hydrothermal oxidation on an etched Ti surface can generate characteristics that have excellent prospects for the biomedical field.Graphical AbstractNanomorphologies such as nanoflowers, nanopetals and nanofibers were successfully fabricated on an etched titanium surface by hydrothermal treatment. The performed hydrothermal treatment is effective in terms of biocompatibility with cytocompatibility, mineralization and antibacterial activity.
