TI  - The Investigation of Corrosion Performance and Durability of Hydroxyapatite-Coated Titanium Implants and the Effect of Antibiotic Additives
AB  - In this study, amoxicillin and potassium clavulanate were loaded as antibiotic additives to hydroxyapatitecoating (L-HAP) and were used to enhance biocompatibility and corrosion resistance of titanium (Ti) in- vitroconditions. Coating was achieved using the Successive Ionic Layer Adsorption and Reaction (SILAR) process.Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images, energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis, atomic forcemicroscopy (AFM) images, X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, and attenuated total reflectance-Fouriertransform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) were used to determine the surface morphology. The corrosiontest was performed using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and polarization curves in artificialsaliva at 310 K. Furthermore the quantum chemical parameters of amoxicillin and potassium clavulanate wereinvestigated and associated with the adsorption ability of these molecules. Results revealed that the corrosionperformance of Ti was improved by L-HAP, which had a lower anodic current density and better corrosionresistance. This situation dealt with the more durable, compact film that had been produced on the surface.
