Abstract

A biomimetic method was used to promote a bioactive surface on a CoCrMo alloy (ASTM F75). To enhance the nucleation of apatite on the metallic substrate, wollastonite ceramics (W), bioactive glass (BG) or hydroxyapatite (HA) were used in the biomimetic method. Metallic samples were chemically treated and immersed for 7 days in SBF on a bed of bioactive material (W, BG or HA) followed by an immersion in 1.5SBF for 7 or 14 days without bioactive system.
