Presentation / Conference Contribution
Chew, K. K., Zein, S. H. S., Ahmad, A. L., McPhail, D. S., & Boccaccini, A. R. Corrosion resistance study of electrophoretic deposited hydroxyapatite on stainless steel for implant applications

Stainless steel (SS) is often used for orthopaedic and dental implants because of its excellent mechanical characteristics. However, from an electrochemical perspective, SS can be susceptible to corrosion-related problems. Inorganic bioactive coating...
