Porous sio2/HAp coAtIngs on cp-tItAnIum grAde 1 surfAces Produced by electroPHoretIc dePosItIonPorous hydroxyapatite doped Sio2 coatings were electrophoretically deposited (EPD) on commercially pure titanium. The influence of EPD parameters on coatings quality was investigated. Microstructural observation was done using transmission and scanning electron microscopy as well as X-ray diffractometry.The coatings consisted of spherical micro and nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite (HAp) as well as amorphous Sio2 nanoparticles. The coatings exhibited open porosity with pore diameter up to 1 µm and due to presence of nanoparticles high surface development.It was found that application of Sio2/HAp coating increase corrosion resistance of titanium in Ringer's solution.
