Numerical characterisation of biomedical titanium surface texture using novel feature parameters

Surface texture has a critical role on biomedicine, titanium material’s functionality in terms of cellular adhesion and proliferation. Surface Texture feature parameters characterisation (as ISO 25178-2:2012) is implemented on specially processed titanium surfaces. The statistical analysis results demonstrate the efficiency and stability of the feature parameter analysis compared to the use of conventional surface texture parameters. Additionally, potentially efficient parameters for characterisation of biomedical surfaces are indicated through the use of a one-way analysis of variance. The intention of the authors is to demonstrate the utility, to the metrology community, of the innovative use of surface texture feature characterisation techniques.
