Abstract
The bioactivity of the microwave and conventionally processed coatings was investigated in terms of formation of fluroapatite layer onto the coating after immersion in SBF solution. The microwave and conventionally processed bioactive coatings were characterized by XRD, SEM and EDX analysis to identify the coating composition and morphology. It was observed that microwave processed coating favored the formation of fluroapatite layer on its surface compared to the conventionally processed coating and thereby, indicating enhancement in bioactivity of the microwave processed coating surface.
