The thin calcium-phosphate (Ca-P) coatings produced by the ion-beam-mixing method instead of the plasma-spraying method have been found to be amorphous, resulting in films that easily dissolved in simulated body fluid. These coatings crystalized with conventional heat treatment in an electric furnace but tended to crack easily. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to find a suitable heat treatment that controls the solubility of Ca-P coatings without weakening their adhesion to titanium (Ti) substrate. Thin coatings (approximately 1 µm) were coated onto Ti substrates, followed by heat treatment in a conventional furnace and rapid heating by infrared radiation and laser radiation. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed untreated films to be amorphous but to become crystalline after being heated in a furnace at 500°C, heated rapidly with infrared radiation higher than 600°C and with laser radiation at output power of 10W. We evaluated solubility by estimating the film thickness after immersion in simulated body fluid for 5 weeks: Untreated films dissolved within 1 day. Coatings treated with infrared radiation at 600°C dissolved minimally. Cracks were observed in coatings subjected to infrared radiation at 800°C and furnace-heated at 500°C. Coatings treated with laser radiation tended to dissolve easily, with non-uniform surface degradation. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis at the interface between the coating and the Ti substrate showed that cracks were the result of decreased Ca-implanted layers and too much growth of Ti-P compounds. No difference was recognized in the Ti-oxidation state among specimens. These data indicate that rapid, homogeneous, and comparatively low-temperature heating, such as defocused infrared radiation, controls Ca-P solubility and ensures the adherence of the coatings to the substrate.
Key Words: implant calcium phosphate laser radiation infrared radiation solubility.
