Abstract
A copper-doped fluorohydroxyapatite (Cu-FHAp) coating was successfully electrodeposited onto anodized and non-anodized AZ31 alloy using a pulse-reverse method combined with ultrasonic agitation. The effects of anodizing and ultrasonic agitation on the performance characteristics of the Cu-FHAp coating deposited on the AZ31 magnesium alloy surface were studied. The results reveal that ultrasonication reduces coating thickness while enhancing uniformity and density. Anodizing increases roughness and diminishes hydrophobicity. Coatings produced under ultrasonic conditions displayed reduced hydrophobicity and improved cell attachment but lower corrosion resistance. In contrast, coatings formed on anodized alloys through stirring achieved optimal characteristics, benefiting from the protective properties of interlayer MgO.
期刊介绍:
Metals and Materials International publishes original papers and occasional critical reviews on all aspects of research and technology in materials engineering: physical metallurgy, materials science, and processing of metals and other materials. Emphasis is placed on those aspects of the science of materials that are concerned with the relationships among the processing, structure and properties (mechanical, chemical, electrical, electrochemical, magnetic and optical) of materials. Aspects of processing include the melting, casting, and fabrication with the thermodynamics, kinetics and modeling.
