A medical implant porous scaffold structure having low modulus, wherein said structure is formed by multiple basic units superposed sequentially along the three-dimensional directions in three-dimensional space, each of the basic units is composed of a quadrangular prism or hexagonal prism having central interconnected pores encircled by four or six side walls, each of the side walls is composed by a “X-type” frame structure formed by two crossed ribs, and the central interconnected pores of the adjacent basic units arranged along the axis direction of the quadrangular prism or the hexagonal prism are interconnected to each other. The structure could not only reduce the modulus of the implant, make the modulus of the implant and strength achieve an ideal match, improve the configuration of traditional metal implants to optimize the distribution of mechanical and weaken the stress shielding effect; but also has a regular interconnected pores structure which is conducive to bone tissue in-growth, and can increase mutual locking of bone tissue and implant and shorten the recovery time of patients.

A new titanium-based implant is disclosed, which is formed by a titanium coating manufactured with biomaterials with applications in osseous implantology. The nanotopographical characteristics of these implants inhibit bacterial adhesion and the formation of a bacterial biofilm on the surface, whilst simultaneously presenting suitable properties for the adhesion, stretching and proliferation of bone-forming cells. Moreover, the invention comprises a method for manufacturing the implant by means of oblique-incidence techniques and the use thereof in osseous implantology.

A surface-treated metallic workpiece of titanium and/or titanium alloys with titanium as the main constituent and/or nickel-titanium alloys and also nitinol, wherein on the treated surface the metal is free from inclusions, precipitates of other metals, accumulations of alkali metals, alkaline earth metals and/or aluminium, intermetallic phases, and/or mechanically highly defect-rich regions, and the surface has a first roughness and a second roughness, wherein the first roughness is provided by depressions in the form of pores, the pores having a diameter in the range between 0.5 and 50 μm—being open in the direction of the surface and closed in the direction of the workpiece, and at least some of the pores having an undercut, and the second roughness is provided by randomly distributed elevations and depressions in the range of 100 nm and less. The invention also relates to a production process for a surface-treated workpiece.
