Abstract
The influence of plasma spraying currents and gun transverse speeds on the characteristics of composite coatings was investigated. The porous microstructure and low bonding strength of the composite coatings were due to lower spraying current and faster gun transverse speed. In hydroxyapatite (HA)/Y-ZrO2 coatings, the amount of HA decomposition increased with increasing spraying currents. Y-ZrO2 reacted with CaO in HA forming CaZrO3 and causing an increase in the decomposition of CaO-poor HA.
