| Summary: | Title screen SiC- and Ag-SiC-doped hydroxyapatite (HA) coatings were deposited via magnetron sputtering aiming at increased corrosion protection of Ti-10Nb-10Zr-5Ta alloy in simulated body fluid environment and superior mechanical properties compared to plain hydroxyapatite. The coatings had a total thickness of about 350 nm. The X ray diffraction patterns indicate that HA coatings are polycrystalline with a hexagonal structure and the addition of SiC determined the coating amorphization. All coatings presented a lower roughness compared to the Ti alloy and were hydrophilic. Ag-SiC-HA coating presented the best corrosion resistance and tribological parameters. All coatings were biocompatible, as ascertained via indirect cytocompatibility studies conducted on Vero cells. |
