| Summary: | The total joint replacement and mechanical stability are the vital components of the biomedical implant. In this study, Ti-6AI-4V is superplastically embedded with HA powder after being submitted to a heat treatment process to produce a new HA embedded layer with enhanced strength and good biocompatibility, which can be served as a good implant. Several properties of this new produced HA embedded layer has been analyzed from the perspective of bio-activity and scratch test. Numerous appropriate conclusions have been drawn. The results obtained, demonstrate that the HA embedded layer possesses good bioactivity properties and it is highly intact to the substrate, and that its stability is maintained even after immersion in simulated body fluid (SBF) for a period of 35 days. |
