New promising techniques for depositing hydroxyapatite (HA) and calcium phosphate (CaP)
coatings on medical devices are continuously being investigated. Given the vast number of …

One of the main critical aspects behind the failure or success of an implant resides in its
ability to fast bond with the surrounding bone. To boost osseointegration, the ideal implant …

Coatings based on ion-substituted calcium phosphate (Ca-P) have attracted great attention
in the scientific community over the past decade for the development of biomedical …

Calcium phosphate coatings ($50 mm thick), especially those made with hydroxyapatite
(HA), produced by the plasma-spraying process have been successfully used on orthopedic …

The dissolution and/or precipitation behaviour of porous calcium phosphate (CaP) coatings,
deposited using electrostatic spray deposition (ESD), was investigated (a) in vitro after …

The plasma spray (PS) technique is the most popular method commercially in use to
produce calcium phosphate (CaP) coatings to promote fixation and osteointegration of the …

The initial behaviour and ultimately the long-term performance of calcium phosphate (Ca–P)
