Electrophoretic deposition is a low-cost, simple, and flexible coating method for producing hydroxyapatite (Hap) coatings on metal implants. However, densification requires heating the coated metal to high temperatures, which, for commercial HAp powders, generally means at least 1200Β°C. At such temp

Abstract
Hydroxyapatite (HA) coatings were deposited on titanium substrates by electrophoretic deposition (EPD) at constant voltage and dynamic voltage, respectively. Various surface morphologies were observed under different type of voltages. Under a constant voltage of 20 V, a dense HA coating could be prepared. Under a constant voltage of 200 V, big HA particles were deposited and the coating was porous. Under a dynamic voltage, a continuous gradient HA coating could be obtained. HA coatings were characterized with a field emissionβscanning electron microscopy (FEβSEM) and an Xβray diffraction (XRD). XRD indicated no significant HA decomposition when the coatings were sintered for 2 h at 800Β°C. Β© 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Biomed Mater Res Part B: Appl Biomater, 2006

## Abstract Hydroxyapatite coatings have been deposited on titanium cp by plasma spray, solβgel, and sputtering techniques for dental implant applications. The latter two techniques are of current interest, as they allow coatings of micrometer dimensions to be deposited. Coating morphology, composi
This study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of coating characteristics on the mechanical strengths of the plasma-sprayed HA-coated Ti-6Al-4V implant system both in vitro and in vivo. Two types of HA coatings (HACs) with quite different microstructures, concentrations of impurityphases, and indi
