Anodizing of titanium alloys
Anodizing titanium and titanium alloys is one of the standard processes that we use to treat osteosynthesis product surfaces and joint prosthesis components.
Whereas the anodizing Type II (DOTIZE®) process is used to modify the biological and biomechanical properties of the implants in principle, Type III anodizing (Coloring) only modifies the cosmetic appearance of the implants.
Whereas the anodizing Type II (DOTIZE®) process is used to modify the biological and biomechanical properties of the implants in principle, Type III anodizing (Coloring) only modifies the cosmetic appearance of the implants.
DOT offers the following anodizing procedures:
Titanium anodizing Type II (DOTIZE®)
The thin natural oxide film on the implant surface is replaced with a thick oxide layer during the DOTIZE® anodizing process (DOTIZE®=developed by DOT). Read more>>
Titanium anodizing Type III (Coloring)
The principal purpose of the color anodizing is to identify the parts during a surgical procedure (colored size marking). Read more>>
