Abstract

Higher micro hardness, wear resistance and adhesion of composite coatings on surface biomaterials is required to achieve a longer service life of implant. In this paper, TiO2-HAP composite coatings were prepared on Ti-6Al-4V substrate with electrodeposition process to improve hardness, adhesion strength and wear resistance of coated substrate. The effect of process parameters Voltage, pH of
electrolyte and Titania (TiO2) concentration on micro hardness of TiO2-HAP composite coated Ti-6Al-4V substrate was investigated. The microstructure and elemental compositions of coating were analyzed by using scanning electron microscope and energy dispersive spectroscopy. The incorporation of TiO2 results in refined structure and increased hardness, adhesion and wear resistance.
