Investigation the coating of hydroxyapatite on titanium substrate by pulse laser deposition

Abstract EN

This study investigated and prepared a coating for surgical implants by using hydroxyapatite (HA) empowers characteristic bone that developed at a medium for prosthetic the parts of human body.

HA is the generally manufactured from both Calcium (Ca) and Phosphate (P) to produce (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2) that used as a base material for covering mineral embeds because of its incredible biocompatibility and comparable the synthesis and structure to sclerous tissues of the human body.

HA, coatings on titanium substrates have been produced by Pulses laser deposition (PLD) techniques.

HA used in this search pressed at pressure (150MPa) with particle size (2.745 µm) and used as a target in coating by (PLD) techniques.

Surface characterization studies of the coatings such as XRD, SEM, AFM and EDX to detect the amount of (Ca) and (P) in coating layer were carried out.

Then test the micro-hardness, surface roughness for HA coating .Corrosion behavior for uncoated and coated samples with various number of pulses in Hank’s solution by using OCP and the potentially static polarization test were achieved also, , in this test we obtained a greatly improved in corrosion resistance of the samples B1 after coating by 99.88%.
