Summary: | The use of calcium silicate coatings has extensively increased due to properties such as biocompatibility and proper bioactivity response. The present study was aimed to investigate the bioactivity of wollastonite-hydroxyapatite (WS-HA) bio-nanocomposite for the treatment of orthopedic implant coatings by adding magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) to the matrix. The bio-nanocomposite was coated on Mg substrate for 40 min at 40 V using electrophoretic deposition (EPD), following which the heat treatment was performed at 550–650 °C for 1 h. The coatings were incubated in simulated body fluid (SBF) and phosphate buffer saline (PBS) for 28 days to detect and confirm apatite-like layer formation Inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) was used to evaluate the concentration of calcium and silicon ions.
