Electrodeposition of Nano Hydroxyapatite Coating on Biodegradable Mg-Zn Scaffold (TECHNICAL NOTE)

ELECTRODEPOSITION OF NANO SIZE HYDROXYAPATITE COATING ON TI ALLOY

A film of osteoconductive and biocompatible material on biomedical metallic implants can create bioactivity of the implant and shorten healing time. Hydroxyapatite, that is the most important mineral part of human bone, was coated on Ti6Al4V using cathodic electrode position process. Pulse electrode position technique was used and the effects of different parameters such as potential, duty cycl...

Bone-repair properties of biodegradable hydroxyapatite nano-rod superstructures.

Nano-hydroxyapatite (nano-HAp) materials show an analogous chemical composition to the biogenic mineral components of calcified tissues and depending on their topography they may mimic the specific arrangement of the crystals in bone. In this work, we have evaluated the potential of four synthesized nano-HAp superstructures for the in vitro conditions of bone-repair. Experiments are underway to...

Surface Activation of NiTi Alloy by Using Electrochemical Process for Biomimetic Deposition of Hydroxyapatite Coating (TECHNICAL NOTE)

Electrochemical depositions of calcium phosphate (Ca-P) film on NiTi alloy in concentrated simulated body flood (SBF×5) were carried out by cathodic polarization. The Ca-P layer was successfully deposited on Ni-Ti alloy substrate under 10mA/cm2 current density for 2 hours at room temperature. Then, in order to investigate the bioactivity of the pre-calcified samples, they were immersed in SBF f...

Hydroxyapatite coating on - - zlrconlausing glass coating technique

The aim of this study was to deyelop a noyel hydroxyapatite (HA) coating method on zirconia using glass coating technique. A borosi)icate glass, the mixture of the glass ttnd HA (3e, 50, 70, and 90 mass%), and the 100% HA were coated on two kinds of zirconia discs and fired at 900-950'C. After the final coating, the surface of the sample was etched for 3 min in an acid-mixture of 3% HF and 5%HN...

Hydroxyapatite coating on porous zirconia

Since hydroxyapatite has excellent biocompatibility and bone bonding ability, porous hydroxyapatite ceramics have been intensively studied. However, porous hydroxyapatite bodies are mechanically weak and brittle, which makes shaping and implantation difficult. One way to solve this problem is to introduce a strong porous network onto which hydroxyapatite coating is applied. In this study, porou...
