- Obtaining of a new biocompatible alloy and application on its surface of bioactive and osseoconductive coatings by architecturing with electrochemical (for adhesion), chemical (for bioactivity), and biomimetic (for biomimetism) methods and which simultaneously exhibit controlled biomolecule release and bioactive behaviour.
    - Influence of the alloying elements on the passivity and corrosion behaviour of the new advanced Ti-Ta-Zr alloy
    - Elaboration of electrochemical method for the architecturing of the alloy surface
    - Characterisation and corrosion behaviour of the architectured surface in simulated physiological solutions
    - Chemical deposition of the secondary hydroxyapatite layer by green chemical, innovative adapted method and selection of the optimal parameters
    - Complete and complex characterisation of the bioactive nano-coating with two layers, by microscopical and spectroscopical methods
    - Investigation of the passivation-dissolution-repassivation mechanisms in different simulated biofluids by electrochemical methods
    - Deposition of the biomimetic protein on bi-layer coating, controling the most favourable parameters
    - Complete and complex characterisation of the final biomimetic coating
    - Original data bank regarding the corrosion resistance of the bare and covered alloy
