Abstract：Titanium and its alloys is one of the most promising materials for biomedical application because of the high specific strength， low elastic modulus， good corrosion resistance and perfect bio-compatibility. However， the utilization of titanium and its alloys is limited due to the poor processing performance， especially for the components with complicated shapes. MIM process can expand its application fields by offering a net-shape or near net-shape fabrication route for complex shaped parts. A feedstock with water-soluble binders was employed to prepare the specimens displaying relative density of 95.7%， oxygen mass percent of 0.196%， nitrogen mass percent of 0.007%， yield strength of 403.12 MPa， ultimate tensile strength of 491.33 MPa and plastic elongation of 21.4%. These properties (except the relative density) meet the requirements of ASTM F2989-13 for grade 2 pure titanium.
