Abstract

This study examined the bone formation ability and cell response on a phosphate (PO3(4-)) ion exchanged amine plasma polymerized titanium (Ti) surface. The enhanced bone-like apatite (hydroxyapatite, HAp)-forming ability was attributed to the PO3(4-) ion exchanged amine plasma polymerized Ti (P/NH2/Ti) surface, which was formed by the reduction of PO3(4-) ions. PO3(4-) ions promote HAp nucleation and growth on Ti in SBF, and PO3(4-) ions improve the crystallinity of the HAp deposited layer. The cell viability tests revealed significantly greater cell viability on the P/NH2/Ti surfaces than on the other surfaces.
