Crystallization temperature of the amorphous calcium phosphate coating synthesized by ion-beamassisted deposition successfully was decreased to 400Β°C for the making of orthopedic implants with better qualities. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used to investiga

β¦ Synopsis
Ionic substitutions have been proposed as a tool to improve the biological performance of calcium phosphate based materials. This review provides an overview of the recent results achieved on ion-substituted calcium phosphates prepared at low temperature, i.e. by direct synthesis in aqueous medium or through hydrolysis of more soluble calcium phosphates. Particular attention is focused on several ions, including Si, Sr, Mg, Zn and Mn, which are attracting increasing interest for their possible biological role, and on the recent trends and developments in the applications of ion-substituted calcium phosphates in the biomedical field.

The present study demonstrates increased early mechanical fixation of titanium implants coated with a new biomimetic apatite surface in a rat model. Male Sprague-Dawley rats received unilateral femoral medullary implants for periods of 1-4 weeks. The strength of fixation of the implant to the host b
Ternary perovskites, such as BaTiO 3 , exhibit a wide range of technologically important dielectric, ferroelectric, piezoelectric, and pyroelectric properties. Traditionally, BaTiO 3 is prepared in a high-temperature (>1100 Β°C) solid-state reaction between TiO 2 and BaCO 3 which yields large crysta
## Abstract Nacre coatings were deposited on Ti6Al4V substrates by electrophoretic technique, and subsequently converted into apatite coatings with hierarchical porous structures by treatment with a phosphate buffer solution. The samples were characterized by Xβray diffraction, Fourier transform in
