Other methods to deposit HA are being studied as the denominated soft coatings e.g., HA coatings obtained by sputtering in order to avoid PS drawbacks [16]. Different biological static assays are found in the literature for plasma sprayed HA coatings, but none of them approach real conditions...
This implies that subflorescence took place in the sample. Figure 6. Evidence of subflorescence on sample 5 of mix 13. (a) Top View of the sample (post-test) (b) Plane of failure of the sample after compressive test, showing existing crystal deposit within the matrix. As of now, ...
