Fluoridated hydroxyapatite coatings (FHAP) were prepared on titanium substrate by electrochemical deposition technique containing Ca2+, PO4(3-), and F(-) ions. The deposition was all conducted at a constant current of 0.9 mA for 60 min at 60 degrees C. The as-prepared coatings were examined by scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy-dispersive Xray spectroscopy (EDS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Xray diffraction (XRD) tests. The results indicate that the FHAP cryatals take the morphology of nanoscale-rodlike cone rather than the micron-daisy petal, and the composite coating becomes more compact. The FTIR test indicates that the symmetry of stretching and bending vibration modes of hydroxyl changed, simulated body fluid immersion test proved that the FHAP coating had induced carbonate-apatite formation, indicating that the composite coating possesses excellent biocompatibility.
