Summary:The first objective of the investigation was to study the propertied of plasma sprayed HA/Ti-6A1-4V/YS2Z composite, and the processing parameters. The second objective was to correlate the main parameters of plasma spraying including post-spray heat treatment (PSHT) and the mechanical properties of the sprayed HA/Ti-6A1-4V/YSZ coating. The third objective was to evaluate the mechanical properties of the sprayed coating after the in-vitro test.
