Fibrous composite PCL/HA coating on metallic implant materials for implant reconstruction applications

One of the instabilities (implant loosening) in orthopedic implant applications such as “local bone loss” is caused by stress-protective phenomena. Another way to keep the implant from loosening is to apply a coating to the implant. This study focuses on the manufacture of a porous composite coating...

Description
Summary:One of the instabilities (implant loosening) in orthopedic implant applications such as “local bone loss” is caused by stress-protective phenomena. Another way to keep the implant from loosening is to apply a coating to the implant. This study focuses on the manufacture of a porous composite coating on the implant material for the reconstruction of bone implants using the spray method. In particular, we discuss the optimal parameters for fabricating the fibrous composite (Polycaprolactone/Hydroxyapatite) coating, its characterization, and mechanical properties. The results show that the fibrous composite (Polycaprolactone/Hydroxyapatite) coating architecture is promising for coating application to implants. Based on these findings, the constructs, and character of the fibrous composite coating favor bone cell migration for bone tissue engineering.
