    According to the website of the Russian Ministry of Science and Education, researchers at the Moscow Institute of Iron and Steel Alloys (MISiS) of the Russian State Research Technical University have developed a new biocompatible alloy using titanium, zirconium and niobium, and its physical and mechanical properties are close to those of natural bone tissue.

    .
    The related research results were published in Metal
    .

     

    According to the "MISiS" researchers, metal biomaterials play a special role in the reconstruction of bone tissue, of which titanium is the most used, but the properties of titanium do not match the physical and mechanical properties of bones, resulting in stress isolation (removal) and nearby Bone tissue fragility increases
    .
    In the scientific research, the scientific research team controlled the chemical composition of the alloy and studied the structure and functional properties of several Ti-Zr-Nb series alloys with high zirconium content.
    %Zr-12%Nb is considered to be the most suitable superelastic alloy, exhibiting high plasticity, relative elongation at break exceeding 20%, and total reversible deformation exceeding 6%
