Implication

Randomized trial investigates the influence of sintering temperature on the properties of Ti6Al4V–20 wt.% Cu composites, suggesting optimal conditions for biomedical applications.

Key Points

This study aims to understand how different sintering temperatures affect the properties of Ti6Al4V–20% Cu composites.
Conducted liquid-phase sintering at temperatures from 900–1100 °C.
Evaluated relative density, microstructure, and electrochemical properties using Ringer’s solution.
Maintained a constant relative green density of 72.7% across samples.
Relative density improved from 78.6% at 900 °C to 98.1% at 1100 °C.
Microhardness increased from 313 HV to 473 HV with temperature rise; correlated with reduced porosity.
Electrochemical tests indicated that Cu-rich phase distribution significantly affects corrosion kinetics.
