In this study, time of calcium phosphate formation on Ti6Al4V alloy with or without alkali and heat treatments was investigated. Specimens were soaked in 0, 5, 10 M solutions of NaOH at temperatures of 60 or 80 °C for 24, 72 h. Their surfaces were characterized using scanning electron microscopy and thin film X-ray diffraction. It was found that optimum condition is 72h soaking in 5 M NaOH in 8...
