## Abstract Over the years hydroxyapatite (HA) coatings have been used to improve biologic properties of Tiβbased load bearing metal implants. However, applicability of HA coated implants is subjected to physical stability of the HA phase and mechanical integrity of the coatingβsubstrate interface.
