The metal/ ceramic interface that constitutes an important part of the plasma-sprayed HA-coated Ti-6A1-4V system may, in fact, represent the "weak link in the implant design. A post-plasma-spray heat treatment to enhance chemical bonding at the metal/ ceramic interface and, hence, improve the mechan
Hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated Ti6AI4V has recently been used as a bone substitute in orthopaedic and dental applications because of its favourable bioactivity and mechanical properties. Studies in the literature have shown that the bioactivity of calcium phosphate bioactive glass (BG) is higher than th
