Abstract
Ceramic composite coating of biocompatible hydroxy-apatite and yttria-stabilized zirconia was performed using an electrophoretic deposition technique. Use of the mixed solvent of acetylacetone and alcohol was effective for the control of the composition of coating layers; the powders of hydroxyapatite and yttria-stabilized zirconia showed different deposition behavior depending on the mixed ratio of the two solvents.
