Hydroxyapatite (HA) coatings generally exhibit very good biocompatibility owing to their compositional resemblance to the natural hard tissue and to bioactive properties that are directly related to surface transformations in physiological fluids. In this study, two types of porous HA coatings produced with pulsed laser deposition were tested with respect to their dissolution/reprecipitation in a semidynamic simulated physiological solution. Coatings with higher porosity produced with a 355-nm wavelength laser exhibited significant reprecipitation earlier than those produced with a 266-nm wavelength laser. The dissolution of the non-HA phases played a major role in the reprecipitation of HA-like material as indicated by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The coatings' Ca/P ratio became closer to the theoretical value of HA. The newly formed HA had imperfect crystal structure and/or small crystal size as suggested by XRD. The reprecipitation resulted in a very dense morphology as shown by scanning electron microscopy, suggesting a mechanically strong structure after reprecipitation. Despite undergoing dissolution and reprecipitation, the coatings showed sufficient stability in the solution, as XRD and energy-dispersive X-ray studies indicated no significant loss of the coatings. The stability of these HA coatings and their ability to cause reprecipitation of HA in the simulated physiological solution showed the potential of these coatings for clinical applications.
