Abstract

Ti6Al4V alloy of titanium is a significant biomaterial due to its biocompatible nature, but it lacks required bioactivity to make it mimic properties to a human bone. Thus, hydroxyl-apatite (HAp), an inorganic compound found in human bones, is generally coated onto Ti6Al4V substrates to improve their bio-characteristics. But, HAp itself lacks certain bio-functionalities, such as allowing tissue bone regeneration and poor binding to the Ti6Al4V substrate, which results in osteoporosis and reduced bioactivity of the bio-implant, respectively. The proposed way out for this is the further doping of HAp with Strontium (Sr) for enabling tissue bone regeneration as well as addition of Polydopamine (PDA) for improved adhesion of HAp-based coatings with the substrate. Moreover, PDA results in increased drug delivery area and thus can be used as a material for enhancing resistance to bacterial growth. The present study demonstrates an experimental work on deposition of HAp, HAp with PDA and HAp with PDA and Sr coatings deposited onto Ti6Al4V alloy by means of biomimetic coating technique. Initially the pure HAp coatings were deposited using 10 SBF (simulated body fluid) solution and optimized in terms of time duration for desired coating uniformity. Then, for the optimized coating duration, the PDA pretreated Ti6Al4V substrates were coated, utilizing HAp, and Sr (at two different compositions) combinations were deposited through modified 10 SBF solutions. The characterization involving microstructural analysis and phase detection was performed for all these coatings using Scanned Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) of the coated substrates and adhesion strength was calculated using a standard pull out adhesion test ISO 13779–4. The study showed an effective and comparatively cheap method of depositing organic coatings using biomimetic technique to obtain improved bio-functionalities in metallic implants at low temperatures.
