Özet

The damages seen in orthopedic/dental implants that are widely used today, since these structures are generally related to their surfaces; the surface conditions of these structures have attracted the attention of many researchers interested in surface engineering around the world. In engineering applications, surface treatments in macro, micro or atomic dimensions, which can be carried out in gas, liquid or solid environments, are frequently applied to the material surface in order to prevent the damage caused by the surface properties of the materials and to increase the mechanical, tribological and electrochemical performance of the materials.

 

In this study, CoCrW samples were first produced with the Selective Laser Melting (SLM) method with the dimensions of 10x10x2 mm, then the samples were boronized at 900°C – 1 hour and 900°C – 4 hours. Then, in order to increase the surface activity, 45S5 Bioactive Glass material with high biocompatibility was coated on the surfaces of these samples by Electrophoretic Deposition (EPD) method. Then, the characterization of the obtained surface was examined with XRD, SEM, FT-IR devices. This study was supported by BAP of Atatürk University under project no: FCD-2021-8958.
