Investigation of nanostructured titanium oxide from surface sol-gel processing for biomaterial applications

"The overall goal was an in-depth study of an adaptation of the surface sol-gel process as a nanometer-precise method to prepare nanostructured titanium oxides for biomedical applications. The surface topography, chemistry, wettability, and mechanical strength of the sol-gel film were first sys...
