INTRODUCTION
1. The necessary of the thesis
Nowadays, 316L stainless steel (316LSS), titanium and alloys of titanium
are widely used in orthopedic surgery with the purpose of splinting bone.
Materials made of titanium and titanium alloy have a good mechanical
properties and good biocompatibility but they have a high cost. Therefore, in
Vietnam, to reduce the cost of medical services, most of the splints are made of
316L stainless steel. However, 316L stainless steel could be corroded and
limited the ability of biological compatibility in the biological environment. To
improve these problems, 316LSS is generally coated biomaterials such as
hydroxyapatite (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2, HAp).
HAp has chemical composition and biological activity similar to the
natural bone. HAp could stimulate the bonding between the host bone to
implant materials and make bone healing ability faster. Moreover, HAp also
protects for the metal surfaces against corrosion and prevents the release of
metal ions from the substrates into the environment.
However, pure HAp has been dissolved in the physiological environment
which may lead to the disintegration of the coatings and affects the implant
fixation. These disadvantages could deal with doping some trace elements in
the HAp structure by replacing Ca2+
ions with cations and substituting OH-
group with anions. In addition, the present of trace element such as magnesium,
sodium, strontium, fluorine, zinc … has also the role to stimulate the new bone
formation and provides minerals for bone cells to grow. Besides, the problem of
postoperative infection should be concerned. Thus, antibacterial elements such
as copper, silver and zinc are also being studied to incorporated into HAp.
Based on the reasons mentioned above, the research topic of thesis is
chosen as following: “Synthesis and characterizations of trace elements co-
doped hydroxyapatite coatings on 316L stainless steel application in bone
implaint”

CHAPTER 1. OVERVIEW OF HAp AND DOPED HAp
1.1. The properties and synthesized methods of HAp and doped HAp coatings
Some trace elements doped HAp coatings have more advantages than
pure HAp coatings, such as: decrease of the dissolution, increase of the
metabolism, antibacterial ability and compatibility.
HAp coatings is deposited on the substrates by many methods: plasma,
magnetron and electrodeposition … These methods have advantages and
disadvantages. The electrodeposition has an important technology because of
the advantages: the low temperature, easily controlling the coatings thickness,
the high purity, high bonding strength and low cost of the equipment.
Furthermore, it is easy to substitute some trace elements ions (Mg2+
, Na+, K
+,
Sr2+
and F- …) into HAp coatings by addiction M(NO3)n or NaX into the
electrolyte. Dope HAp is producted according to the chemical reaction:
(10-x)Ca2+
+ 6PO43-
+ (2-y)OH- + xM
2+ + yX
- Ca10-x M x(PO4)6(OH)2-yXy
1.2. In vitro and in vivo test of HAp
The compatibility of materials is studied by immersion them in SBF
solution and investigate the formation of apatite on the material surface.
Besides, the compatibility of materials is also studied by in vivio test on the
animal.
1.4. The application of HAp, doped HAp
HAp and doped HAp are used as:
- The medicine of calcium supplements: the composition of HAp contains
a lot of calcium and be absorbed directly without transformation.
- Material for implantation: repair of the teeth and bone defects.
1.5. The situation of HAp research in the country
-

Basic on the overview of HAp and doped HAp, it can be seen that there is
no published report about doped HAp coatings in our country; in the world, the
trace elements doped HAp coatings have been only synthesized separately.
Thus, in this doctoral thesis, some trace elements (sodium, magnesium,
strontium, fluorine, copper, silver and zinc) doped HAp coatings were
synthesized separately and simultaneously. The HAp obtained coatings have
many good properties, such as: decrease of the dissolution and increase of the
metabolism, antibacterial ability and compatibility for HAp coatings.

The ratio of (Ca+0.5Na+Mg)/P in all obtained coatings samples at DNa1,
DNa2 and DNa3 solutions is the same the ratio of Ca/P in the natural bone
(1.67) (Table 3.1). However, to reach the Na/Ca ratio similar to its in natural
bone, the deposited NaHAp coatings in the DNa1 and DNa2 solution are

solution
Both IR spectra and XRD patterns of NaHAp deposited in DNa2 solution
exhibit that NaHAp coatings have crystals structure and single phase of HAp
(Figure 3.2).

The charge, mass, thickness and adhesion strength of NaHAp coatings at
the different potential ranges show that the thickness and adhesion strength of
NaHAp coatings reaches the maximum value at potential range of 0 ÷ -1.7
V/SCE (Table 3.2). Thus, the potential range 0 to -1.7 V/SCE is chosen for
NaHAp coatings electrodeposition.

observed in all samples. At 25 and 35 oC, the obtained coatings is mostly
dicalcium phosphate dehydrate (CaHPO4.2H2O, DCPD) with the typical peaks
at 2 12o and 24

Table 3.6 shows that the concentration of doped ions in the solution
increases leading to the increase of their components and the atomic ratios of
X/Ca in obtained coatings. However, to reach the X/Ca similar to its in natural
bone, the soluion of DMg1, DMg2, DMg3, DSr1 or DSr2 are suitable to
deposite the MgNaHAp or SrNaHAp coatings. The ratio of F/Ca is smaller than
its in natural bone but the extension of F- concentration is more than 2.10
-3 M
leading to precipitation of CaF2 in the solution. Therefore, DMg3 or DSr2 or
DF3 is chosen to deposite the MgNaHAp or SrNaHAp or FNaHAp coatings.

b. The effect of scanning potential range
Table 3.8 shows that the scanning potential range of 0 ÷ -1.7 V/SCE for
MgNaHAp + SrNaHAp and at 0 ÷ -1.8 V/SCE for FNaHAp, the mass, thickness
and adhension strength of obtained ĐNaHAp coatings are best. Thus, the
scanning potential range of 0 ÷ -1.7 V/SCE is selected to synthesize the MgNaHAp
+ SrNaHAp coatings and 0 ÷ -1.8 V/SCE for FNaHAp coatings.

The results of the mass and thickness of ĐNaHAp coatings at the
different scanning times show on Table 3.9. The mass, thichness and adhesion
strength of deposited ĐNaHAp coatings at 5 scanning times are higher than
othes scanning times so 5 scanning times is chosen to deposited the ĐNaHAp
coatings.

The analysed results of IR spectra, XRD patterns and SEM images show
that deposited ĐNaHAp coatings have crystals structure and single phase of
HAp (Figure 3.7) and the morphology change because of the presence of Mg,
Sr or F into NaHAp coatings (Figure 3.8).

SEM images of MgSrFNaHAp coatings deposited with different potential
ranges are presented in Fig. 3.9. With potential ranges of 0 ÷ -1.7 và 0 ÷ -1.8
V/SCE, the deposited coatings are denser with cylinder shapes.
Therefore, the potential ranges of 0 ÷ -1,7 V/SCE is selected to
electrodeposited MgSrFNaHAp coatings.

b. Effect of electrodeposition temperature
At 25 and 35 oC, the deposited coatings are mostly DCPD. With higher
temperature, the peaks of DCPD are not detected and there are only peaks of
HAp phase (Figure 3.10a). Thus, 50 oC is chosen to prepare MgSrFNaHAp
coatings.
c. The effect of the scanning times
The XRD patterns indicate that the phase of deposited coatings at one
scanning times is only DCPD without HAp. At 3 scanning times, it appears the
phase of HAp but DCPD is still the mainly component. From 5 scanning times,
the obtained coatings have single phase of HAp (Figure 3.10b). Thus, 5
scanning times is chosen for MgSrFNaHAp coatings electrodeposition.
d. Effect of the scanning rate
Figure 3.10c presents the XRD patterns of MgSrFNaHAp coatings
deposited at different scanning rates. Both XRD patterns exhibit the
hydroxyapatite phase with the typical peaks at 2 of 32o and 26
o. However, with
the scanning rate at 6, 7 mV/s, there are also appear peaks of DCPD at 2 of
12o. Thus, scanning rate 5 mV/s is chosen to deposite of MgSrFNaHAp
coatings.

e. Characterization of MgSrFNaHAp coatings
The EDX spectra of MgSrFNaHAp coatings shows that: the presence of 7
main elements doped in HAp including: Ca, O, P, Mg, Na, F and Sr (Table
3.11). These results have been used to calculate the atomic ratios of M/Ca, (Ca
+ M)/P (Table 3.12). The ratios suggest that the components of the elements in
the coatings are similar to component of mineral phase in natural bone .

SEM and AFM images of deposited coatings are shown in Figure 3.11. At
the same conditions, MgSrFNaHAp coatings with the presence of Mg, Sr, F
are high density, uniform and has a rod shape, while HAp coatings has a plate
shape. The roughness value (Ra) of MgSrFNaHAp coatings is less 2 times than
its of NaHAp coatings.

3.1.2. Synthesis of doped HAp by ion exchange method
3.1.2.1. Synthesis of Cu2+
, Ag+ or Zn
2+ doped NaHAp coatings
a. Effects of M2+
concentration
For the ion exchange between HAp and Cu2+
, the initial concentration of
Cu2+
increases from 0.005 M ÷ 0.02 M, the ion exchange capacity rises rapidly.
When the concentration of Cu2+
was elevated to 0.05 M and 0.1 M, the capacity
altered slightly, as the ion exchange process had reached trace of the
equilibrium. Therefore, 0.02 M Cu2+
solution is used to synthesize CuHAp
coatings (Table 3.13).
For ion exchange between HAp coatings with Ag+ and Zn
2+ ions, ion
exchange capacity increased simutaneously as Ag+ and Zn
2+ concentration
increased. Xray diffraction of the obtained samples after ion exchange are
presented in Fig. 1. With concentration of Ag+
from 0.001 M to 0.005 M and
Zn2+
from 0.01 M to 0.1 M, all the samples have crystals structure and single
phase of HAp. Contrary, with the Ag+ concentration of 0.01 M, the obtained
coatings have mainly the phase of Ag3PO4. Therefore, 0.001 M Ag+ and 0.05 M
Zn2+
solutions are used to synthesize AgHAp and ZnHAp coatings.

b. Effect of contact time
The change in ion exchange capacity folowing the contact time are

and after 30 minutes contact with Cu2+
or Zn2+
, the ion exchange capacity has
reached equilibrium trace (figure 3.13); if the contact time is longer, this value
changes light. Thus, the contact time is selected to synthesize CuNaHAp or
ZnNaHAp of 30 minutes and AgNaHAp coatings of 10 minutes.

and show on Table 3.16. To compare with component of mineral phase in
natural bone, the element components of Mg, Sr, F and Na in the coatings are
similar to but this values of Cu, Ag and Zn and Na are higher to increase the

Figure 3.17. IR spectra and XRD patterns of NaHAp (a) and HApđt (b)
coatings and SEM images of HApđt coatings
The dissolution behaviors of HApđt, MgSrFNaHAp and NaHAp coatings is
studied by immersions materials in 0.9% NaCl and SBF solutions. For all
samples, the dissolved amount of Ca2+
ions from these coatings increases with
immersion time. However, The dissolution of HApđt coatings is slowest and of
NaHAp is faster at any time (Figure 3.18a). The release concentration of iron
ions from substrates increases according to time for all sample. Because HApđt
coatings play as a barrier to protect the substrates and the dissolution of the
coatings decreases with the presence of the trace elements in HAp structure so
the iron ion release is arranged in order: 316LSS > NaHAp/316LSS >
MgSrFNaHAp/316LSS > HApđt/316LSS.
This suggested that the protect ability for the substrates of the coatings:
HApđt > MgSrFNaHAp > NaHAp.

Figure 3.19. The variation of pH (1) and Eo (2) vs. different immersion
times in SBF solution
With doped HAp/316LSS materials, pH solution and value of Eo have
fluctuated which shows the formation of new apatite crystals or the dissolution
of the coatings in the immersion process. The dissolution HAp causes to
increase pH solution Eo. In the process of forming apatite, OH- as Ca
2+, PO4
3- is
consumed large quantities leading to reduce pH and rise Eo.
b. The electrochemical impedance
During 21 immesion days, the impedance of 316LSS increases, these
values of doped HAp coated 316LSS changes, but they are much higher than
316LSS because of protection ability of coatings and tend to increase which
demonstrates that the rate of the formation is higher than the rate of the
dissolution of the coatings (Figure 3.20).
Moreover, the variations of impedance modulus at 100 mHz frequency
show that the values of impedance modulus of MgSrFNaHAp/316LSS and
HApđt/316LSS material are higher than of NaHAp/316LSS and 316LSS which
indicates that HAp doped with the present of some trate elements have the
protection ability better than NaHAp coatings.

c. The polarized Tafel curves
The presence of trace elements in HAp structure leads to move the
corrosion potential (Ecorr) toward the positive side and reduce the corrosive
current density (icorr) in comparation with 316LSS (Figure 3.21 and Table 3.17).
This indicates that the protection ability for the substrates of doped HAp
coatings is better than that of NaHAp one.

Microscopic images at implantation area shows that all implanted animals
have the same results. The area of the direct contact with the material is forming
a membrane link. However, some lymphocyte cells appear on 316LSS and
NaHAp/316LSS materials but in contrast, they are completely not observed on
MgSrFHAp/316LSS material.
3.2.2.2. Results of transplantation on the femur
The wound has been edema but not bleeding at the first 3 days and after 1
month, the skin was almost completely covered at the location of transplantation.
Microscopic images at transplantation area shows that:
- After 1 week: all transplanted animals have the same results. At the
transplantation area, many osteoblasts cells are observed but acute inflammation
cells still exist (Figure 3.24).
Figure 3.24. Images of NaHAp/316LSS after 1 week transplantation
- After 1 month: the acute inflammation cells have absented and the
necrosis have not observed on all transplanted materials. There are many
osteoblasts cells on 316LSS and NaHAp/316LSS but still have the lymphocyte
cells (Figure 3.25a). With MgSrFNaHAp/316LSS, the osteoblast concentrate on
the location of the bone edge to form bone (Figure 3.25b) and form a membrane
link attached on the surface of this material (Figure 3.25c).

CONCLUSIONS
1. The optimal conditions is selected to synthesize the NaHAp coatings and NaHAp coatings doping magnesium, strontium and fluorine separately and
simultaneously by cathodic scanning potential method: the scanning
potential range of 0 to -1.7 V/SCE (0 ÷ -1.8 V/SCE for FNaHAp); the
reaction temperatures of 50 oC; the scanning time of 5; the scanning rate of
5 mV/s in DNa2, DMg3, DSr3, DF3 và DNaMgSrF, respectively. The dope
deposited HAp have crystals structure and single phase of HAp with the
thickness about 7,6 ÷ 8,1 µm. The component wt% of the elements Na, Mg,
-
24
Sr or F in the NaHAp, MgNaHAp, SrNaHAp, FNaHAp coatings are 1.5; 0.2;
6.3x10-4
hoặc 1.55 %, respectively and in the MgSrFNaHAp are 0.56 % Na;
0.14 % Mg; 0.03 % Sr and 1.5 % F.
2. The NaHAp coatings doping copper, siliver and zinc separately and simultaneously are synthesized successfully by ion exchange method and
by the way: immersion the material of NaHAp/316LSS at room
temperature in 4mL solutions containing separately or simultaneously:
Cu(NO3)2 0.02 M, AgNO3 0.001 M and Zn(NO3)2 0.05 M about 30 minutes
(10 minute for AgNaHAp coatings).
3. The HAp coatings doping 7 elements simultaneously: Mg, Sr, F, Na, Cu, Ag, Zn are synthesized successfully by the combination two methods:
electrodeposition and ion exchange. The HApđt obtained coatings have
crystals structure with coral shape and single phase of HAp. The component
wt% of the elements Mg, Sr, F, Na, Cu, Ag and Zn in the coatings are 0,04;
0,03; 1,07; 0,15; 0,18; 0,39 và 1,06 %, respectively. The presents of seven
elements in the coatings lead to decrease the dissolution behaviors and
increase the protect ability for the substrates.
4. The in vitro test in SBF solution by the methods of open circuit potential, electrochemical impedance measurements and the polarized Tafel curves show
that the biological activity and the protect ability of these material follow the
order: HApđt/316LSS > MgSrFNaHAp/316LSS > NaHAp/316LSS > 316LSS.
5. The cytotoxicity ability test by Trypan Blue and the MTT method show that NaHAp or MgSrFNaHAp powder with different concentrations are safe for
fibroblasts cells.
6. The antibacterial ability test with three strains (P.aerugimosa, E. coli and E.faecalis) show that: AgHAp and HApđt have good resistance to all of
them; CuHAp has a good effect on P. aerugimosa; the HAp and ZnHAp
have no effect on all strains.
7. The in vivo test on dog’s body by implantation 3 splints made from: 316LSS, NaHAp /316LSS and MgSrFNaHAp/316LSS at the thigh and on
the femur with tested time from 1 to 3 months show that their biological
compatibility follows the order: MgSrFNaHAp/316LSS > NaHAp /316LSS
> 316LSS.
NEW CONTRIBUTIONS OF THESIS
1. The HAp coatings doping 7 elements simultaneously: Mg, Sr, F, Na, Cu, Ag, Zn are synthesized successfully on 316LSS substrates by the combination
two methods: electrodeposition and ion exchange. The presents of seven
elements in the coatings lead increasing the abilities of the biological
compatibility, the antibactery and the protection for the substrates and
decreasing the dissolution behaviors in comparation with MgSrFNaHAp and
NaHAp coatings.
-
25
2. The in vivo tests on dog’s body with tested time from 1 to 3 months indicate that MgSrFNaHAp/316LSS with the presents of some trace
elements (Mg, Sr and F) in the coatings lead the biological compatibility
better than NaHAp/316LSS and uncoated 316LSS which is demonstrated
by the forminations a thick new bone on the surface of
MgSrFNaHAp/316LSS after 3 months transplantation.
