Abstract
Titanium and its alloys are considered as appropriate replacements for the irreparable bone. Calcium phosphate coatings are widely used to improve the osteoinduction and osseointegration ability of titanium alloys. To further improve the performance of the calcium phosphate-coated implants, strontium (Sr) was introduced to partially replace the calcium ions. In this study, the effect of Sr ion addition on the fluorohydroxyapatite (FHA)-coated Ti6Al4V alloy was investigated and all the coatings were treated under hydrothermal condition. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to investigate the phases and microstructures, respectively. Shear tests were done to evaluate the bond strength of the coating layer. MTT, adhesion, and alkaline phosphatase tests were performed to evaluate the biocompatibility and osteogenic behavior of the samples. Results showed that the average crystallite size for the strontium-doped FHA samples was 48 nm and the bond strength had increased 13.15% in comparison with FHA-coated samples. Analysis of variance showed p value for all MTT tests at more than 0.322 and there was not any evidence of cell death after 7 days. The results of the ALP test showed that the increase of the cell activity in Sr samples from day 7 to 14 is three times higher than the FHA ones.
