Cobalt–chromium (Co–Cr)-based alloys have been used extensively as medical implants, but the ion release and the corrosion products can affect their mechanical integrity and biocompatibility. One of the solutions is to surface coat the substrate with hydroxyapatite via electrophoretic deposition tec...
