Role of in-flight temperature and velocity of powder particles on plasma sprayed hydroxyapatite coating characteristics by Cizek, Jan, Khor, Khiam Aik

“…It was found that the temperature of the particles plays a critical role for the development of detrimental CaO (content increase of up to 14.6%) and metastable TTCP (up to 49.5%) phases in the coatings. Particle in-flight velocity was found to influence the open porosity of the coatings (8.8%–27.9%) and has an impact on the micro-hardness and moduli of the coatings (relative differences of up to 2.8×). …”
