Comparative study of hydroxyapatite and octacalcium phosphate coatings deposited on metallic implants by PLD method

摘要

The aim of the presented study was an analysis of two apatite coatings: hydroxyapatite (HA) and octacalcium phosphate (OCP) as coatings materials for metallic implants. Both layers were deposited by means of the PLD method. As a target material, synthetic, powdered and pressed hydroxyapatite was used. HA was deposited on 316L steel substrate in two temperature ranges for obtaining different coatings: 150±30°C and 430±30°C for OCP and HA, respectively. As an intermediate layer, the nanocrystalline diamond layer (NCD) was deposited. Examined calcium phosphate layers were tested for adhesion of osteoblast cell culture (MG-63). Analytical methods (AFM, FTIR) showed the usefulness of the PLD method for deposition of the apatite layers on metallic implants. Both examined layers showed biocompatibility with human osteoblast cells and presented favorable conditions for their proliferation.
