With the growing demands for bone implant therapy, titanium (Ti) and its alloys are
considered as appropriate choices for the load-bearing bone implant substitutes. However …

Hydroxyapatite (HA) composites with titania (TiO2) up to 30 mol% were coated on a titanium
(Ti) substrate by a sol–gel route, and the mechanical and biological properties of the coating …

A simple sol–gel method was successfully developed for a hydroxyapatite (HA)/TiO2 double
layer deposition on a pure titanium substrate. Phase formation, surface morphology, and …

Objective The fabrication of bioactive coatings on metallic implants to enhance
osseointegration has become a topic of general interest in orthopedics and dentistry …

Sol–gel thin films of hydroxyapatite (HA) and titania (TiO2) have received a great deal of
attention in the area of bioactive surface modification of titanium (Ti) implants. Sol–gel …

Over the years, the use of hydroxyapatite as coatings for medical devices and drug-delivery
systems has gone through a revolution–from being a rarity to being an absolute necessity …

The aim of the present study was to characterize sol-gel derived titania coatings prepared by
dipping. The surface characterization was carried out using X-ray photoelectron …

A simple sol–gel method was developed for hydroxyapatite/titania (HA/TiO2) coatings on
non-toxic titanium–zirconium (TiZr) alloy for biomedical applications. The HA/TiO2-coated …

Titanium is the most commonly used metallic material in the manufacture of orthopedic
implants, and hydroxyapatite (HA) is bioactive and biocompatible when used as bone …

The aim of this study was to evaluate quantitatively the behaviour of in vivo hydroxyapatite
coated implants (HA) in the rabbit over time, and to compare the results with observations …
