Abstract

In this study, PSII(plasma source ion implantation) was used to improve the biocompatibility of bone-anchored Ti implant. According to potentiodynamic anodic polarization test in deaerated Hank's solution, open circuit potential of ion implanted specimens were increased compare to that of unimplanted specimen ; besides, passive current density and critical anodic current density of ion implanted specimens were lower than unimplanted specimen.
