Abstract

Titanium implants remain a reliable treatment for patients in need of restorative orthopedic and oral cavity works due to their high flexibility in manufacturing. Multiple strategies for improving Ti implants have been successfully tested and employed including alloying and surface coatings. Polylactic acid (PLA) based nanofibers can be interesting due to their large surface-to-volume ratio and ability to interact with large volumes of other substances. This paper offers an in-depth characterization of a nanofibrous PLA coating obtained by electrospinning on TiZr oxide. Analyses include morphology characterization, investigation of forces present on the surface, and the observation of the evolution of the coatings immersed in two bioelectrolytes.
