Typically, pure niobium oxide coatings are deposited on metallic substrates, such as commercially pure Ti, Ti6Al4 V alloys, stainless steels, niobium, TiNb alloy, and Mg alloys using techniques such as sputter deposition, sol–gel deposition, anodizing, and wet plasma electrolytic oxidation. The relative advantages and limitations of these coating techniques are considered, with particular emphasis on biomedical applications. The properties of a wide range of pure and modified niobium oxide coatings are illustrated, including their thickness, morphology, microstructure, elemental composition, phase composition, surface roughness and hardness. The corrosion resistance, tribological characteristics and cell viability/proliferation of the coatings are illustrated using data from electrochemical, wear resistance and biological cell culture measurements. Critical R&D needs for the development of improved future niobium oxide coatings, in the laboratory and in practice, are highlighted.

“…In general, increasing SOD to 35 cm results in the formation of disk-shaped splats. A higher percentage of the splash morphology was observed on mild steel substrates than glass substrates (Ref 23,26,27). It is suggested that more rapid freezing occurs on mild steel than on glass substrates due to the higher thermal conductivity of the steel (Ref 28).…”

Thermal spray coatings are composed of millions of heated particles driven at high velocities onto a substrate, thereby building up and forming a consolidated coating. Thus, investigating single solidified droplets contributes to the fundamental understanding of the evolution of a surface coating and its properties. In this study, the single splat morphology and thermal characteristics of flame-sprayed ethylene methacrylic acid (EMAA) splats, deposited at various stand-off distances onto glass and mild steel substrates, are investigated using scanning electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and thermal gravimetric analysis. This study indicates that the microstructure of EMAA coatings can be controlled by judicially selecting the thermal spray parameters rather than by using the trial and error methods that are often used at present.
