PublicationSynthesis and process evaluation of calcium phosphate coatings depositions on pure magnesium via simple chemical conversion method(Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP), 2018-12)
;Mohd Amin Farhan Zaludin ;Azmi RahmatSimple chemical conversion has been employed in order to coat calcium phosphates (CaP) on magnesium (Mg) substrate. The Mg substrates were coated in a primary phosphating bath before secondary treated with an alkaline solution of sodium hydroxide, NaOH. In this paper, the fabrication process of the coatings via simple chemical conversion method were discussed and evaluated in terms of electrochemical, phase analysis, and microstructural aspects. XRD diffractogram confirmed that the primary coating composed of dicalcium phosphate dehydrates (DCPD) and after the secondary treatment, the DCPD transformed into more stable hydroxyapatite, HA. The microstructural observations show that the coating is composed of flower-like shape crystallites. Besides, the potential-time curves of both primary and secondary coated samples suggests that the minimum deposition time for better coverage of the coatings is 30 minutes.
