Calcium phosphorus bio-coating on carbon/carbon composites: Preparation, shear strength and bioactivity

摘要

Microwave hydrothermal (MH) combining supersonic atmospheric plasma sprayed (SAPS) calcium phosphorus (Ca-P) bio-coatings on carbon/carbon (C/C) composite has been widely used due to their osteoconductivity and osteoproductivity. However, the erratic shear strength between coatings prepared only by SAPS (outer coating) and C/C substrates has attached more attention over the implant failure. Adding a coating prepared by MH (inner coating) before SAPS can possess superior shear strength to conventional outer coating. The inner coating with fine Ca-P particles was prepared through a unique MH method under different concentrations (10, 500 and 1000 mmol/L). The influence of concentration on microstructure, phase composition, roughness and shear strength are investigated in this paper. In particularly, the roughness of inner coatings on C/C substrates was found to related to the morphologies and particle size.
