Abstract

Bioactive glass coatings deposited via suspension plasma spraying were studied to improve the adhesion between orthopaedic implants and bone. Fine powders of a bioactive glass, named BG_Ca, having composition (in wt.%): 4.7 Na2O, 42.3 CaO, 6.1 P2O5, 46.9 SiO2, were produced and dispersed in ethanol to form a suspension used as a feedstock. Various sets of spray parameters were applied in order to define the influence of the deposition process on the final coating properties. Consequently, the coatings were characterized in as-sprayed state and after soaking in a simulated body fluid (SBF) for different periods ranging from 1 to 14 days. The microstructural investigations were carried out using environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The coatings’ adhesion to the substrate was evaluated by means of scratch tests. Finally, hardness and elastic modulus were determined by means of depth-sensing indentation methods.
