Abstract
Abstract Tensile and shear adhesion strength tests were carried out to evaluate interfacial strength between hydroxyapatite (HA) coatings and titanium alloy substrates that that had been anodized or pre or post heat treated. Tensile and shear adhesion strength were both found to be influenced by pre and post heat treating, but not by anodization. The findings suggest that it is possible to estimate tensile adhesion strength from shear adhesion test results and that the interfacial strength of coatings must be measured directly, without using an adhesive.
