The optimum relative density of 99.87±0.12% was achieved at a scanning speed of 800 mm/s, with corresponding tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, and hardness values of 543±17 MPa, 453±7 MPa, 14±1%, and 294±4 HV, respectively. Additionally, SLM-processed CP-Ti with optimum relative density exhibited the lowest wear rate (2.72×10-7 mm2/N) and excellent corrosion resistance. These results indicate that CP-Ti with high relative density, strength, and hardness, low wear rate, and excellent corrosion resistance can be fabricated by controlling the scanning speed, making it well-suited for biomedical implant applications.
