Pure poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) and zinc oxide (ZnO)/PHBV composite nanofibers were fabricated by an electrospinning method. ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) with a diameter of about 10e20 nm were doped in the PHBV fibers and no dispersion agent was utilized. Both pure PHBV and compo

AC-type microarc oxidation (MAO) and hydrothermal treatment techniques were used to enhance the bioactivity of commercially pure titanium (CP-Ti). The porous TiO 2 layer fabricated by the MAO treatment had a dominant anatase structure and contained Ca and P ions. The MAO-treated specimens were treat
## Abstract Hydroxyapatite coating on metal implants is an effective method to enhance bioactive properties of the metal surface. We report here a method to coat the Tiβ6Alβ4V alloy with hydroxyapatite crystals. After alkaline/heat treatment, the spontaneous growth of organoapatite on titanium allo
