Abstract

Sonoelectrodeposition technique has been used to prepare bioactive brushite coatings on carbon/carbon composites. The effects of current density on the structures and morphology of the bioactive brushite coatings were also investigated. It is found that the coatings with plate-like (021), granular-like (111), and flower-like (22̄0) morphology can be fabricated by using different current densities respectively. The results show that the sizes of as-deposited particles decrease with increasing current density. In addition, the mechanism of the variation of their microstructures was also discussed.
