Enhancing NiTi Implants through Binder Jetting: Microstructure, Impurity Control, and Post-processing Optimization

Additive manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing, has created new possibilities for designing and producing innovative NiTi medical implants. This technology offers significant advantages over traditional manufacturing methods, including the ability to produce complex geometries tailored to individual patient anatomy, potentially leading to better surgical outcomes and faster recovery times. These capabilities facilitate the creation of implants that are not only more biocompatible but also capable of promoting better osseointegration and reducing the risk of implant rejection.
