Development of the Combined Technology of Modification of the Surface of Titanium Implants by Laser Radiation with Subsequent Plasma Spraying of Biocompatible Coatings

Аннотация

We propose a combined technology for the modification of the surfaces of titanium implants by laser radiation followed by the plasma spraying of biocompatible coatings. We performed comprehensive investigations of the coatings with the use of SEM, optical microscopy, and other methods. The coatings obtained by using the proposed procedure are characterized by the high adhesive strength, structural uniformity, and a sufficiently high degree of hydrophily.
