Owing to their relatively low Young's modulus, high strength, good resistance to corrosion, and excellent biocompatibility, beta-titanium (Ti) alloys have shown great potential for biomedical applications. In beta-Ti alloys, carbon can exist in the form of titanium carbide (TiC (x) ) as well as interstitial atoms. The Ti-C binary phase diagram predicts a carbon solubility value of 0.08 wt.% in beta-Ti, which has been used as the carbon limit for a variety of beta-Ti alloys. However, noticeable grain boundary TiC (x) particles have been observed in beta-Ti alloys containing impurity levels of carbon well below the predicted 0.08 wt.%. This review focuses its attention on trace carbon (a parts per thousand currency sign0.08 wt.%) in biomedical beta-Ti alloys containing niobium (Nb) and molybdenum (Mo), and it discusses the nature and precipitation mechanism of the TiC (x) particles in these alloys.
