In order to overcome the poor adhesion of zirconia-silica coating electrophoretically deposited on 316 L stainless steel, graphene oxide (GO) was used as an interlayer. The effect of this interlayer on morphological, microstructural, corrosion performance and bioactivity behavior of ZrO-10 at. % SiO coating was studied.

Despite the attractive characteristics of three-dimensional pure hydroxyapatite (HA) scaffolds, due to their weak mechanical properties, researches have focused on the development of composite scaffolds via introducing suitable secondary components. The aim of this study was to develop, for the first time, three-dimensional HA-bredigite (Ca7MgSi4O16) scaffolds containing various amounts of bredigite nanopowder (0, 5, 10 and 15wt.%) using space holder technique.
