EN The paper presents results of preparation and modification of Ti20Nb5Zr foams by a thermal dealloying method followed by electrochemical modification. The first step of this study was the preparation of Ti20Nb5Zr30Mg nanopowder using mechanical alloying (MA). The second was forming green compacts by cold pressing and then sintering with magnesium dealloyed from the structure, which resulted in pores formation. The next step was surface modification by electrochemical etching and silver nanoparticle deposition. Porosity, morphology, mechanical properties as well as biocompatibility and antibacterial behavior were investigated. Titanium foam porosity up to approximately 60% and wide pore size distribution were successfully prepared. The new materials have shown positive behavior in the MTT assay as well as antibacterial properties. These results confirmed great potential for thermal dealloying in preparation of porous structures.
