However, the adhesion of these coatings to the titanium substrates needs to be improved for clinical use. it is demonstrated that anodization of a titanium alloy does marginally increase the adhesion of calcium phosphate coatings."
"Although scratch test measurements on coatings deposited at a constant potential appear to suggest that adhesion improves with increased thickness of the anodized layer, when a constant current is...
