Abstract
A coating with a through branched porosity could be obtained on sinter ing workpieces of various shapes with globular powder particles 0.1 - 1.0 mm in diameter obtained from VT6 titanium alloy by a rotating-elec trode plasma-spray method. The pores 0.125 - 0.400 mm in size could ex tend into the coating at any predetermined depth beneath the surface. A bone tissue could grow in the pores. Due to the globular shape of th e powder particles, vessels do not get damaged and no unfavorable bend ings of the vessels growing in the pores take place. On the base of th e technology developed, design of endoprostheses of new generation is targeted.
