Investigation of HAP/organic polymer composite coating prepared by electrochemical co-deposition technique (II) Characterization of XRD, SEM and mechanical properties

Electrodeposition hydroxyapatite (HAP) coatings of ceramics were studied by nano indent. The bonding force between the coating and metal substrate was distinctly increased. The experiments by XPS and SIMS show that there is the act of organic polymer enriching at negative. It ensues that minor organic polymer is compounded to HAP coatings at molecular level and forms the HAP/organic polymer compound coating.
