Abstract

To improve the quality of bioceramic gradient coatings, wide band laser cladding technique was adopted to produce a kind of gradient composite bioceramic coating, which combines the good biocompatibility of HA and β-TCP with good toughness and strength of TC4 alloy. The rare earths oxide La2O3 was added to improve the properties of the bioceramic coating. The results indicate that when the adding of La2O3 is 0.6wt%, the ceramics coating is of the largest amount of HA and β-TCP catalyzed, and the number of cells proliferated and the ALP secreted on coatings is the biggest, which indicates that the biocompatibility and bioactivity of gradient bioceramic coating is the best. The biocompatibility and bioactivity are closely related to the amount of HA and β-TCP catalyzed by La2O3.
