Metallic biomaterials have been employed in replacing and reconstructing the structural
parts of the human physical structure due to their high mechanical properties, superior …

Hydroxyapatite has become an important coating material for bioimplants, following the
introduction of synthetic HAp in the 1950s. The HAp coatings require controlled surface …

Since various interactions among cells, surrounding tissues and implanted biomaterials
always occur at their interfaces, the surface properties of potential implants appear to be of …

A critical parameter in Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (PEO) is the applied current composed
of electronic current caused by sparking and ionic current caused by diffusion of electrolyte …

This work elucidated the antibacterial efficacy, corrosion resistance, and cytotoxicity of
electroplated copper-substituted hydroxyapatite (CuHAP) coating on titanium (Ti). The …

The main challenges of biological implants are suitable strength, adhesion, biocompatibility
and corrosion resistance. This paper discusses fabrication, characterization and …

The modification of surface features such as nano-morphology/topography and chemistry
have been employed in the attempt to design titanium oxide surfaces able to overcome the …

In this research pure HA and HA-ZrO 2-TiO 2 nanocomposite coatings (named HZT
coatings) were successfully synthesized by merging two usual electroplating methods. In …

The present study deals with pulse electrochemical deposition of HA on NiTi alloy and in
vitro evaluation of coatings. At first step, a thermo-chemical surface modification process was …

Although titanium and its alloys are widely used as implant material for orthopedic and
dental applications they show only limited corrosion stability and osseointegration in …
