The deposition of a biocompatible calcium phosphate coating on the surface of materials for
biomedical implants by rf-magnetron sputtering is reported. The deposition parameters to …

Phosphate chemical conversion (PCC) technology has been investigated for improving the
surface performance of metallic implants in the biomedical field over the last decade. The …

In this work we have investigated the effects of strontium (Sr) dopant on in vitro protein
release kinetics and in vivo osteogenic properties of plasma sprayed hydroxyapatite (HA) …

During the past century, synthetic materials and devices have been developed to the point at
which they can be used successfully to replace and/or restore function to diseased or …

A comparative study between hydroxyapatite coatings produced by two different techniques,
plasma spray (PS) and pulsed-laser deposition (PLD) was carried out. Plasma spray is …

Plasma spraying is a commonly used technique to apply thin calcium phosphate ceramic
coatings. Special consideration is given to retaining the original structure of CPC particles …

The biomimetic approach for coating metal implants allows the deposition of new calcium
phosphate (Ca-P) phases. Films elaborated at physiological conditions might have …

Hydroxyapatite (HA) coatings have numerous applications in orthopedics and dentistry,
owing to their excellent ability to promote stronger implant fixation and faster bone tissue …

In order to study the interaction of calcium phosphate coatings with bone tissue, coated
titanium plugs of standard size were implanted in dog femora. The bone bonding and bone …

Calcium phosphate coatings produced using the ion beam sputter deposition process are
amorphous. To produce crystalline coatings, a series of different post-deposition heat …
