A novel strategy for the preparation of Si-doped hydroxyapatite (Si-HA) coatings on H2O2-treated carbon/carbon composites (C/C) was developed. HA coating was prepared on C/C through chemical liquid vaporization deposition (CLVD)/hydrothermal treatment. HA coating was immersed in an H2SiO3 solution at an autoclave at 413 K for transformation into Si-HA coating. The effects of H2SiO3 mass contents on the phase, morphology, and composition of the Si-HA coatings were studied through SEM, EDS,XRD, and FTIR. Their bonding performance to C/C was measured through a scratch test. Under the optimal content condition, the in vitro skull osteoblast response behaviors of the Si-HA coating were evaluated. Results showed that SiO3(2-) could enter into the HA lattice and occupy the PO4(3-) sites. Doped SiO3(2-) significantly improved the bonding performance of the HA coating to C/C in comparison with the untreated HA. The adhesive strength of the coatings initially increased and then decreased with increasing H2SiO3 content. Meanwhile, the cohesive strength of the Si-HA coatings was almost nearly identical. The Si-HA coating achieved at a content of 90% H2SiO3 exhibited the best bonding performance, and its osteoblast compatibility in vitro was superior to that of the untreated HA coating on C/C through CLVD/hydrothermal treatment.

Synthetic hydroxyapatite (HA) is a widely studied bioceramic for bone tissue engineering (BTE) due to its similarity to the mineral component of bone. As bone mineral contains various ionic substitutions that play a crucial role in bone metabolism, the bioactivity of HA can be improved by adding small amounts of physiologically relevant ions into its crystal structure, with silicate-substituted HA (Si-HA) showing particularly promising results. Nevertheless, it remains unclear how distinct material characteristics influence the bioactivity due to the intertwined nature of surface properties.

An ideal intraosseous transcutaneous implant should form a tight seal with soft tissue, besides a requirement of osseointegration at the bone-fixed position. Si substituted hydroxyapatite (Si-HA) nanorods releasing Si ion and simulating nanotopography of natural tissue were designed on Ti to enhance fibroblast response and biosealing with soft tissue . Si-HA nanorods were fabricated by alkali-heat treatment followed with hydrothermal treatment.

A high-performance multilayer coating with external, flexible, and silicon-doped hydroxyapatite (Si-HA) nanorods was designed using bionics. Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) and the microwave hydrothermal (MH) method were used to rapidly deposit this multilayer coating on a titanium (Ti) substrate, applied for 5 and 10 min, respectively. The bioactive multilayer coating was composed of four layers, and the outermost layer was an external growth layer that consisted of many Si-HA nanorods with a single-crystal structure.

Osteoporosis is one of the most commonly identified bone disorders, which leads to an enhanced risk of bone fracture, especially for the older population. Hydroxyapatite (HA) coated titanium (Ti) alloys have been used widespread for load bearing applications like hip or knee replacements owing to their compositional similarity to natural bone; however, incorporation of osteoinductivity is still a challenge. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of SiO and ZnO as dopants in HA coated Ti alloys on cellular osteoporotic conditions mimicked by an osteoblast and osteoclast coculture model.

In this study, functional elements coatings on the plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO)-treated Ti-6Al-4V alloy by electrochemical precipitation method were investigated. Ti-6Al-4V ELI disks were used as specimens for PEO and HA coating. The applied voltage and time were selected to be 280 V and 3 minutes for PEO treatment, respectively.
