Abstract

The prime objective of the work is to develop bioactive glass ceramic coating on 316L stainless steel through Electrophoretic Deposition (EPD) technique for orthopedic applications. The influence of BG concentration, voltage consumption, and deposition time of EPD technique has been investigated. Characterizations of the coating were studied using various techniques such as XRD, FT-IR, and Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM)/EDS. The electro chemical corrosion behavior in SBF and in vitro biocompatibility analysis in simulated body fluid and antibacterial activity of the material were evaluated. The results from the investigation revels better bioactive behavior on stainless steel substrates which suits well for dental and orthopedic application.
