The present work explores the mechanical and corrosion resistance properties of Al2O3-13wt% TiO2 (AT13) and hydroxyapatite (HAP) bilayer coated titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) bioimplants. Plasma spray coated AT13 acts as the foundation layer (thickness 75 μm) and HAP acts as the top layer (thickness 75 μm). AT13/HAP bilayer coated Ti-6Al-4V implants were characterized in terms of microstructure, chemical composition, hardness and surface roughness. The corrosion resistance and bioactivity were investigated in simulated body fluid (SBF) environment at 37 °C. The results validated that bilayer coated Ti-6Al-4V implants possessed superior corrosion resistance, polarization resistance and microhardness in comparison with monolayer coated and uncoated implants.

等离子喷涂生物陶瓷双层涂层Ti-6Al-4V植入物的显微硬度和耐蚀性
本工作探讨了Al 2 O 3 -13wt%TiO 2(AT13)和羟基磷灰石(HAP)双层涂层钛合金(Ti-6Al-4V)生物植入物的机械性能和耐腐蚀性。等离子喷涂AT13用作基础层(厚度为75μm),HAP用作顶层(厚度为75μm)。AT13 / HAP双层涂覆的Ti-6Al-4V植入物通过微观结构,化学成分,硬度和表面粗糙度进行了表征。在37°C的模拟体液(SBF)环境中研究了耐腐蚀性和生物活性。结果证实,与单层涂覆和未涂覆的植入物相比,双层涂覆的Ti-6Al-4V植入物具有优异的耐蚀性,抗极化性和显微硬度。
