Ceramic coatings are fabricated on pure aluminium by plasma electrolytic oxidation （PEO） in three kinds of electrolyte systems [E1： 0.05M NaOH＋0.033M Na2SiO3, E2： 0.025M NaOH＋0.008M （NAPO3）6 and E3： 0.025M N...Ceramic coatings are fabricated on pure aluminium by plasma electrolytic oxidation （PEO） in three kinds of electrolyte systems [E1： 0.05M NaOH＋0.033M Na2SiO3, E2： 0.025M NaOH＋0.008M （NAPO3）6 and E3： 0.025M NaOH＋0.066M Na2SiO3＋0.008M （NAPO3）6]. The voltage-time responses show that the PEO process of E2 has the highest discharging voltage, which results in the biggest pores and heaviest cracks on the surfaces. X-ray diffraction results show that coatings produced in E1 and E3 are mainly composed of γ-Al2O3 and mullite, while coatings produced in E2 are mainly composed of a-Al2O3. After PEO treatment the corrosion resistance of aluminium is improved significantly and the coatings produced in E3 perform the best corrosion resistance.展开更多

The main idea of the method is to create multilayer coatings consisting of titanium primer layer and a microarc calcium-phosphate coating. The titanium layer is deposited from plasma of continuous vacuum-arc discharge, and calcium-phosphate coating is formed by the microarc oxidation technique. The purpose of the hybrid method is to combine the properties of good strength stainless steel with high bioactivity of calcium-phosphate coating. This paper describes the chemical composition, morphology characteristics, adhesion and the ability of the formed biocomposites to stimulate the processes of osteoinduction. It is expedient to use such biocomposites for implants which carry heavy loads and are intended for long-term use, e.g. total knee endoprosthesis.展开更多
