Abstract
Titanium and stainless steel are examples of biomaterials widely used in dental and orthopedic implants owing to their properties of good corrosion resistance and excellent biocompatibility. This paper reports on a study of the biomimetic method applied to titanium (cp-Ti) and 316L stainless steel. The method consists in immersing the metal substrate in a synthetic solution of SBF (simulated body fluid) whose composition, pH and temperature resemble those of human blood plasma. The coating on the two metals was effective for obtaining hydroxyapatite, which was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR).
