Surface Nanostructures Enhanced Biocompatibility and Osteoinductivity of laser-Additively Manufactured CoCrMo Alloys

Article describes how cobalt–chromium–molybdenum (CoCrMo) alloys are widely used in orthopedic implants due to their excellent corrosion and wear resistance and superior mechanical properties. In this study, the authors prepared CoCrMo alloys with surface nanostructures of various aspect ratios (AR) using laser-directed energy deposition (L-DED) and biocorrosion.
