Physico-chemical characterization of electrochemical deposit of Ca_(10)(PO_4)_6(OH)_2 on copper surfaces

摘要

Surface modification of biomaterials to improve biocompatibility without changing their bulk properties is desired for many clinical applications and has become an emerging technology in biomaterial research and industry. In the present study, a sample electrochemical method of coating the solid surfaces of copper, with a film of apatite, was developed. Thin layer of calcium phosphate crystals formed on the surfaces of copper, was carried out by electrochemical methods, and characterized by XRD, infrared spectroscopy and chemical analysis.
