Item Cytocompatibility by MTT assay and platelet adhesion of Ti and Ti-6Al-4V coated with hydroxyapatite in different plasma gas atmospheres(Jaypee Brothers Medical Publishers (P) Ltd 4838/24 Ansari Road, Daryaganj New Delhi 110 002, 2017) Kotian, R.; Rao, P.P.; Madhyastha, P.; Shobha, K.L.; Satish Rao, B.S.S.; Ginjupalli, K.Aim: This study was performed to evaluate the biocompatibility of pure titanium and Ti-6Al-4V metals coated with hydroxyapatite (HA) by plasma spray using different plasma gas atmospheres. Materials and methods: The cell viabilities for each HA-coated sample in an atmosphere of argon, argon–hydrogen, nitrogen, and nitrogen–hydrogen were studied using MTT assay and platelet adhesion test. Results: The mean cell viabilities by MTT [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol- 2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide] assay of samples coated with HA in argon–hydrogen plasma atmosphere showed maximum cell viability at different time intervals compared with other coating atmospheres of argon–hydrogen, nitrogen, and nitrogen–hydrogen. A statistically significant value of cell viability (p < 0.001) was observed between and within the groups of argon, argon–hydrogen, nitrogen, and nitrogen–hydrogen plasma gas atmosphere. The platelet adhesion study showed agglomerates of platelet cells in some isolated regions of HA for all atmospheres. Significance: The results obtained in this study can serve as a guide for the development of new Ti-based HA-coated implants in different plasma gas atmospheres. © 2017, Jaypee Brothers Medical Publishers (P) Ltd.

Materials and Methods: Ti and Ti-6Al-4V metal substrates were coated with HA by plasma spray using four plasma gas atmospheres of argon, argon/hydrogen, nitrogen, and nitrogen/hydrogen. The degree of crystallinity, the phases present, and microstructure of HA coating were characterized using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. Results: Variation in crystallinity and the microstructure of HA coating on plasma gas atmosphere was observed. Micro-cracks due to thermal stresses and shift in the 2? angle of HA compared to feedstock was seen. Conclusion: Plasma gas atmosphere has a significant influence on composition, crystallinity, and micro-cracks of HA-coated dental implants. © 2017 European Journal of Dentistry.Item Investigation of the effect of NiCrAlY/Cr2O3/YSZ plasma coatings on erosion performance of MDN 420 steel at high temperature(Inderscience Publishers, 2023) Reddy, G.M.S.; Prasad, C.D.; Patil, P.; Shetty, G.K.; Kakur, N.; Ramesh, M.R.The purpose of the current study was to use an air jet erosion tester to examine the erosive behaviour of plasma sprayed coatings on MDN-420 that were composed of 70% NiCrAlY, 25% Cr2O3, and 5% YSZ. Microstructure and phase studies were performed. Measurements were made on the microhardness and adhesion strength. Al2O3 erodent was used in a solid particle erosion test with impact angles of 30° and 90° at 300°C, 500°C, and 700°C. The erosion volume loss was measured using an optical profilometer. For the test temperature used, it was found that the coating’s erosion resistance was greater than that of the substrate and that it was more pronounced at higher impact angles and higher temperatures. The shape of the degraded coating surface reflects the coating’s ductile nature. © © 2023 Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.
