Glass–ceramics have attracted much attention in the biomedical field, as they provide great possibilities to manipulate their properties by post-treatments, including strength, degradation rate and coefficient of thermal expansion. In this work, hardystonite (HT; Ca 2 ZnSi 2 O 7 ) and sphene (SP; CaTiSiO 5 ) glass–ceramic coatings with nanostructures were prepared by a plasma spray technique using conventional powders. The bonding strength and Vickers hardness for HT and SP coatings are higher than the reported values for plasma-sprayed hydroxyapatite coatings. Both types of coatings release bioactive calcium (Ca) and silicon (Si) ions into the surrounding environment. Mineralization test in cell-free culture medium showed that many mushroom-like Ca and phosphorus compounds formed on the HT coatings after 5 h, suggesting its high acellular mineralization ability. Primary human osteoblasts attach, spread and proliferate well on both types of coatings. Higher proliferation rate was observed on the HT coatings compared with the SP coatings and uncoated Ti-6Al-4V alloy, probably due to the zinc ions released from the HT coatings. Higher expression levels of Runx2, osteopontin and type I collagen were observed on both types of coatings compared with Ti-6Al-4V alloy, possibly due to the Ca and Si released from the coatings. Results of this study point to the potential use of HT and SP coatings for orthopaedic applications.

For diverse applications in optical, electronic and consumer industries, the use of glass and glass ceramics as substrates for functional coatings is becoming of outstanding interest in order to develop advanced composites. Atmospheric Plasma Spraying (APS) is an adequate technology for the deposition of a wide variety of materials on glasses. Glass and glass ceramics are characterised by their specific thermo physical properties like low or even negative CTE, low heat conductivity and high dimensional stability. Consequently, modified production processes in comparison to the established coating operations on metal surfaces are required regarding the substrate activation methods or a more accurate heat transfer guidance to the substrate by optimized robot trajectories. This paper aims to give an overview of the investigations carried out at the IMTCCC for the development of plasma sprayed layer composites on borosilicate glass and glass ceramic substrates.

Plasma spraying is a technique which is used to apply coatings to metallic substrates for a variety of purposes, including hardfacing, corrosion resistance and thermal barrier applications. Almost all of the applications of this somewhat esoteric fabrication technique involve materials in hostile environments and the integrity of the coatings is of paramount importance: the effects of process variables on such properties as adhesive strength, cohesive strength and hardness of the substrate/coating system, however, are poorly understood.Briefly, the plasma spraying process involves forming a hot plasma jet with a maximum flame temperature of approximately 20,000K and a gas velocity of about 40m/s. Into this jet the coating material is injected, in powder form, so it is heated and projected at the substrate surface. Relatively thick metallic or ceramic coatings may be speedily built up using this technique.
