In order to improve the bioactivity of titanium, an original surface treatment was attempted with the use of a casting technique was attempted. Pure titanium was cast into a special graphite mold in which the cavity wall was coated with hydroxyapatite (HA) powder. According to analyses of X-ray diff

Titanium implants are known to nucleate spontaneously a calcium phosphate (apatite-like) layer when in contact with biological model fluids. The presence of proteins either in solution or pre-adsorbed on the titanium surface may influence the process of calcium phosphate deposition. The role of fibr
## Abstract We have recently shown that a new implant surface design, achieved by the deposition of discrete nanocrystals of calcium phosphate on microtopographically complex titaniumβbased substrates, accelerates osteoconduction and also renders the implant surface bone bonding. Thus, we wished to
We sought to address the question: Can metallic surfaces be rendered bone-bonding? We employed dual acid-etched (DAE) commercially pure titanium (cpTi) and titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V) custom-made rectangular coupons (1.3 mm Γ 2.5 mm Γ 4 mm) with, or without, further modification by the discrete crystal
Hydroxyapatite-glass-titanium (HA-G-Ti) functionally gradient composite plates bound face-to-face by nylon wire were soaked in a simulated body fluid. The gap between the plates was filled with the precipitates after soaking for 6 months, and a tight chemical bond was formed between them. Field emis
