In the present paper, bioceramic coating with gradient compositional design was prepared on surface of Ti alloy by using wide-band laser cladding. Effect of rare earth Y2O3 content on gradient bioceramic composite coating was studied. The experimental results indicated that adding rare earth can refine grain. Different contents of rare earth affect formation of HA andβ-TCP in bioceramic coating. With increase of rare earth content, HA andβ-TCP were synthesized. When content of rare earth ranged from 0.4% to 0.6%, the active extent of rare earth in synthesizing HA andβ-TCP got best, which indicated that “monosodium glutamate” effect of rare earth played a dominant role. However, when rare earth content was up to 0.8%, the active extent of rare earth in synthesizing HA and β-TCP conversely went down, which demonstrated that rare earth gradually lost its catalysis in manufacturing HA andβ-TCP.

In this study, microstructure and biocompatibility of gradient bioceramic composite coating fabricated by Wide-Band Laser Cladding is investigated. The experimental results indicate that the coating consists of an alloyed transition layer and the bioceramic coating. The bioceramic coating is mainly comprised of HA, CaTiO3, CaO, α-TCP, β-TCP and TiO. The coral-shaped structure and short-rod piled structure existing on the surface of coating. After the implantation of the bioceramic coatings into dogs’ femur for 6, 12, and 24 weeks, hypersusceptibility, rejection and pathological changes are not found. No fiber cyst, necrosis of bone tissue and chronic inflammation obviously appear through slice observation of hard tissues. The bioceramic coating with different ratios of Ca : P have different abilities to induce osteogenesis. At Ca: P=1.4 and 0.6wt.% Y2O3 (No.3 sample), the bioceramic coating is of best bioactivity and biocompatibility.

AbstractNickel-based alloy coatings were widely used for the remanufacturing of dies and moulds by laser cladding, but the crack sensitivity would be increase due to the higher strength and hardness, which reduced the wear resistance of Ni-based alloys. In this paper, Ni-based coatings with the addition of a plastic phase (an austenitic stainless net) were prepared using laser cladding technology, and the CeO2 was added in cladding layers. The cracking mechanism, microhardness, microstructure, phase composition, and wear properties were investigated. The relationship between thermal stress and the elastic and plastic fracture had been developed from the standpoint of fracture mechanics and thermal elastic fracture mechanics. The fracture criterion of the nickel-based coating was obtained, and the study has shown that the crack sensitivity could be reduced by decreasing the thermal expansion coefficient Δα. Thus, a new method was proposed, which the stainless steel nets were prefabricated on the substrate. It was found that the number of cracks reduced significantly with the addition of stainless steel net. When the stainless steel net with 14 mesh was added in Ni-based coatings, the average microhardness of nickel composite coating was 565 HV0.2, which was 2.6 times higher than that of the 45 steel substrate. Although the rare earth oxide 4 wt.% CeO2 and stainless steel net were added in the Ni-based coating reducing the microhardness (the average microhardness is 425 HV0.2), the wear resistance of it improved substantially. The wear volume of Ni-based composite coating was 0.56×10−5 mm3·N−1·m−1, which was 85.1% lower than that of 45 steel. The experiment results have shown that the Nickel-based composite coating is equipped with low crack sensitivity and high abrasive resistance with austenitic stainless net and the rare earth oxide 4 wt.% CeO2. This research offers an efficient solution to produce components with low crack susceptibility and high wear-resistance coatings fabricated by laser cladding.

To improve bonding strength between titanium alloy and coating and to eliminate thermal stress during laser cladding, a gradient coating materials is designed. And the gradient coating with different contents of multiple rare earth deoxide was produced by wide band laser cladding technique. The experimental results indicate that when addition of Sm2O3 is fixed to 0.3wt.%, as addition of Y2O3 increases, the microstructure of bioceramic is different. When addition of Y2O3 reaches 0.4wt.%, the amount of Ca-P based bioactive phases such as HA, α-TCP as well as β-TCP becomes biggest. After soaking the coating with 0.3wt.% Sm2O3 and 0.4wt.% Y2O3 in SBF for 14 days, a large amount of Ca-P white spherical particles can be observed on coating, which demonstrates the bioceramic coating is of best bioactivity.

To eliminate thermal stress during laser cladding and to raise the bonding strength between substrate and coating, composition gradient coatings are designed and fabricated by using wide-band laser cladding technique on a Ti alloy. The rare earth Nd2O3 was added to improve the properties of the bioceramic coating. The experimental results indicate that when the adding of Nd2O3 reaches 0.6wt%, the characteristic peaks of HA and β-TCP are the highest, which demonstrates the amount of HA and β-TCP is the largest. However, when the content of Nd2O3 is up to 0.8wt%, the peaks of HA and β-TCP conversely goes down. The biocompatibility and bioactivity are related to the amount of HA and β-TCP catalyzed by Nd2O3. When the content of Nd2O3 is 0.6wt%, the number of cells proliferated and the ALP secreted on coatings is the most, which indicate the biocompatibility and bioactivity of gradient bioceramic coating is the best.

A gradient bioceramic composite coating was prepared by wide-band laser cladding technique on TC4 alloy surface. The influence of rare earths oxide CeO2 on microstructure of bioceramic coating was studied. The experimental results indicated that CeO2 plays an important role in inducing HA + β-TCP formation. There is almost no HA+β-TCP in bioceramic coating without CeO2. When CeO2 content is higher than 0.2 wt.%, the amount of HA+β-TCP catalyzed by CeO2 gradually increases. The amount of HA+β-TCP becomes largest when CeO2 content is up to 0.4wt%. However, when CeO2 content ranges from 0.6 wt.% to 0.8 wt.%, the amount of synthesizing HA+β-TCP conversely goes down. Through cell culture experiment in vitro, the effect of bioceramic coating with different CeO2 contents on the expression of characteristic protein is investigated. The results show that the largest amount of expression of hydroxyproline(Hyp) at 2d and alkaline phosphatase(ALP) at 6d on coating is complied with 0.4wt.% CeO2, The result indicates that bioactivity of bioceramic coating is dependent on the amount of HA + β-TCP catalyzed by different CeO2 contents.

In order to researching the microstructure of bioceramic coating on the surface medical titanium alloy (Ti–6Al–4V), the gradient bioceramic coatings are fabricated by wide-band laser cladding. The influence of multiple rare earths oxide La2O3 and CeO2 on microstructure of bioceramic coating were studied. The experimental results demonstrated that mixed La2O3 and CeO2 have an effect on forming-ability of HA\β-TCP in bioceramic coating and also refined the grain of bioceramic coatings. The largest amount of HA\β-TCP is presented among all the groups when the contents of La2O3 and CeO2 are 0.6wt.%, 0.4 wt.%, respectively.
