Vacuum Plasma Spray Decomposition Of Titanium Particle/Glass-Ceramic Matrix Biocomposites

The vacuum plasma spray technique (VPS) has been successfully employed to coat Ti-6Al-4V substrates with bioactive glasses and Ti particle/glass-ceramic matrix biocomposites. The composites were prepared by sintering, under an Ar flow, green bars of bioactive glass powders and 30% volume Ti particles. Each coating was found to be bioactive and well bonded to the substrate; the composites showed better mechanical properties than the pure glass matrices and the hydroxylapatite coatings deposited by the same VPS technique.
