The effect of HAP addition on properties F-75 alloy fabricated via P/M 6 for biomaterial applications
A Co-Cr-Mo (ASTM F-75) alloy is generally used because of their mechanical properties, good wear and corrosion resistance as well as biocompatibility. In order to obtain chemical similarity and interfacial bond form between implanted biomaterials and living tissue, addition of Hydroxyapatite (HAP) i...

Every interval of 48 hours, the weight loss per area was recorded. By increasing amount of HAP, it is noticed that the composites were less shrink and grain size getting larger compared to the reference sample. The largest grain size was obtained for composite consists of 10 wt.% of HAP (32.56μm) meanwhile the smallest grain size was obtained for reference sample (21.43μm). These results are inversely proportional to the decreasing value of bulk density and microhardness. The result of apparent porosity closely to 30% is obtained due to the increasing amount of HAP.

For microstructure analysis, the composites microstructure showed agglomeration of HAP and pores scattered on the composite surface. Meanwhile, biocompatibility test has indicated that the corrosion rate are increasing due to addition of HAP except for composite that consists of 2 wt.% of HAP which has the lowest corrosion rate among others (2.53mpy). The possibilities that contribute to the increasing of corrosion rate as a function of HAP addition are; the formation of general attack and pitting between matrix and electrochemical solution used.
