Structure and Phase Composition of Hydroxyapatite Plasma Coating

Changes in the structure and phase composition of the hydroxyapatite (HA) plasma coating were established during deposition at the initial temperatures of 20 and 550°C of the titanium substrate and a deposition distance of 95 and 150 mm. The structure of HA coatings was analyzed by SEM and optical microscopy. DSC analysis established the transition temperatures of HA coatings to the equilibrium state. When deposited on a substrate with an...
