Crack Propagation Resistance of α-Al2O3 Reinforced Pulsed Laser-Deposited Hydroxyapatite Coating on 316 Stainless Steel

Abstract: Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a widely used bioceramic known for its chemical similarity with that of bone and teeth (Ca/P ratio of 1.67). But, owing to its extreme brittleness, a-Al 2 O 3 is reinforced with HA and processed as a coating via pulsed laser deposition (PLD). Reinforcement of a-Al 2 O 3 (50 wt.%) in HA via PLD on 316L steel substrate has shown modulus increase by 4% and hardness increase by 78%, and an improved adhesion strength of 14.2 N (improvement by 118%). Micro-scratching has shown an increase in t… Show more

“…The total displacement (h max ) is the displacement of the indenter from its initial position at peak load (P max ). However, the material elastically recovers its shape partially, when the indenter is unloaded [37][38][39][40]. So the total displacement is composed of both elastic and plastic displacements.…”

“…Unfortunately, poor fracture toughness and wear resistance of monolithic HA limit its potential applications as a coating material, especially on load-bearing metallic implants [5,6]. To achieve improved mechanical properties of HA coating, HA composite coatings reinforced with a second phase, such as alumina (Al 2 O 3 ) [7,8], yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) [9,10], and titania [11,12] have been considerably developed in the past two decades. Despite significant improvement achieved in fracture toughness of these HA composite coatings, it should be noted that the addition contents of these ceramic particles, basically biologically inert, are usually as high as 30-50% in weight fraction (wt.%), inevitably leading to degradation of the excellent bioactivity and osteointegration associated with HA.…”

“…To further improve mechanical properties of HA coating itself, HA composite coatings with a second phase (usually ceramic particles such as Al2O3, ZrO2, and TiO2) have been extensively explored [7][8][9][10][11][12]. Despite significant improvement achieved in fracture toughness of these HA composite coatings, it is necessary to note that the addition contents of these ceramic particles, basically biologically inert, are usually as high as 30-50% weight fraction, inevitably leading to degradation of the excellent bioactivity associated with monolithic HA.…”
