Adherence of Ceramic Coatings on Chromium-Cobalt StructuresMaterials Department, School of Engineering and School of Dentistry, and Department of Biomaterials Science, School of Dentistry, University of California, Los Angeles, California 90024, USA
Materials Department, School of Engineering and School of Dentistry, and Department of Biomaterials Science, School of Dentistry, University of California, Los Angeles, California 90024, USA A method was developed that would provide attachment of a ceramic layer to Vitallium substrates. The critical step involves etching the metal by an electrochemical treatment. The corroded metal surface has a large surface area that enables the ceramic to attach to the metal structure. A mechanical bond is indicated, and the strength of adhesion is related to the amount of surface area.
