Mechanical properties of plasma sprayed bioceramic (hydroxyapatite) coatings

Hydroxyapatite (HA) has been applied as a coatings on Ti-6A1-4V biomedical implants to accelerate osteogenesis because of its bioactive nature. Plasma spraying was widely used to coat the HA as it has been proved to be highly effective. This project investigated the mechanical properties of plasma s...
