Abstract
Hydrothermal post-treatment was used to convert monetite coating fabricated by induction heating method on H 2O 2 treated C/C (HT-C/C) composites to an adherent HA coating. The monetite coatings were hydrothermally treated for 4 h at 373 K, 403 K, 423 K, and 453 K in a 50 mL autoclave. After hydrothermal post-treatment, the structure, morphology and the chemical composition of these HA coatings were characterized with XRD, FTIR SEM and EDS. A scratch test was conducted to measure the strength of the adhesion of the coatings to the HT-C/C substrate. The results showed that the degree of crystallinity and the Ca/P ratio of the HA coatings increased with increasing hydrothermal temperature. The submicron-level morphology and adhesion of the HA coatings were highly affected by the hydrothermal temperature. From the results, it can be suggested that 423 K was the best hydrothermal treatment temperature for the HA coatings which were transformed from the monetite coatings produced by the induction heating method on HT-C/C composites.
