Abstract
Two sintering products containing potassium titanates were fabricated and cultivated in simulated body fluid for 12 days. It was found that the molar ratio of titanium/potassium of potassium titanate is a key factor to control the behavior of potassium titanate in body fluid environment. Low potassium titanates such as K2Ti2O5 and K2Ti4O9 transformed into calcium titanate due to its intrinsic characteristics of ion exchange. However, potassium hexatitanate was structurally stable adsorbing needle-like hydroxyapatite. The experimental results indicated that potassium hexatitanate possesses excellent biocompatibility which is better than low potassium titanates.
