It has been proven that titanium and its alloys have an excellent biocompatibility. That's why many studies have been made on them, in order to enlarge their biomedical applicability domain. In this paper, a new titanium alloy, Ti25Nb25Ta was tested in different biological environments, in order to evaluate its wear behavior.
