Abstract :
A construction of laboratory apparatus for heat treatment of titanium implants by high-frequency currents is described. Dependencies of heating of titanium implant samples at different power consumption were defined. Novel matrix coatings of titanium dioxide with colloidal hydroxyapatite (nanophase filler) were produced on the surface of medical items, which are made of commercially pure titanium VT1-00 and titanium alloy VT16 (Ti-2.5Al-5Mo-5V). Consistency changes of morphological characteristics, hardness and biological compatibility of titanium intraosseous implants with coatings produced by the above-mentioned technique using induction heating were defined. Technological recommendations for obtaining bioceramic coatings with extremely high strength on titanium items surface were given.
