Abstract:

Background: The research involved the evaluation of physical and mechanical properties of hydroxyapatite (HAp) bio-ceramics
sprayed on titanium substrate of the type Ti-grade 2 (CP-Ti) by means of the plasma method. An innovative method of coating
is applied when using implantology for healing bone defects in the body. Material and Methods: Hydroxyapatite coating was
prepared in order to conduct research. The powder was made using wet-chemical technology consisting in separating the solids
from the solution. Next, a titanium substrate was prepared, onto which hydroxyapatite was applied with a plasma technique.
Results: As a result of the research it has to be noted that the properties of the obtained coating may be used for covering large
surfaces of implants of any shape. Conclusions: During the research into the physical and mechanical properties of hydroxyapatite
composites it has been observed that they show sufficient mechanical properties to be used in implantology. The further aim
of the research will involve selecting technological parameters of spray coating in order to increase adhesion and cohesion of HAp
coatings.
