A nanosized zirconium phosphate coating for PEEK implants and its effect in vivo

Surface treatments and coatings can be applied to polyether ether ketone (PEEK) implants to improve their ability to osseointegrate. A new coating, consisting of amorphous nanosized zirconium phosphate (ZrP) was applied to PEEK and titanium substrates. The coating was applied by using a microemulsio...

Zusammenfassung:Surface treatments and coatings can be applied to polyether ether ketone (PEEK) implants to improve their ability to osseointegrate. A new coating, consisting of amorphous nanosized zirconium phosphate (ZrP) was applied to PEEK and titanium substrates. The coating was applied by using a microemulsion as a carrier for the nanoparticles. It was found that the coating formed a thin continuous porous layer on top of the substrate, with pore diameters of 10–50 nm. The thickness of the coating was estimated to
