... cells, blood capillaries, and soft tissue. In this work, hydroxylapatite coatings were deposited by atmospheric plasma spraying on titanium alloy substrates, and characterized by synchrotron radiation X-ray diffraction and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The deposition parameters...

...Robert B. Heimann; Horst J. Pentinghaus; Richard Wirth Abstract 2:1-mullite coatings of (17–23) ± 6 μm thickness were deposited by atmospheric plasma spraying (APS) onto flat aluminium coupons. Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) showed that the coatings immediately adjacent...

... ) are employed and demonstrate linear wear rates <1 μm/year. Currently, coating the metal stem of hip endoprosthetic implants by atmospheric plasma spraying (APS) of hydroxylapatite powder with particle diameters of tens to hundreds of micrometers is the most popular, and the only Food and Drug...

... of rainfall, sea spray, and eolian dust. Mineralogical and isotopic data suggest that contribution from eolian dust is minimal in semiarid northwestern Hawaii (<40 cm annual rainfall), so atmospheric input consists primarily of rainfall or sea spray, both of which have an 87 Sr/ 87 Sr ratio of ∼0.7092...

..., iodates) coupled with dry atmospheric deposition (i.e., nitrates, perchlorates) and sea spray inputs (i.e., sulfates, chlorides), triggered by increasing aridity and tectonic uplift.

... Valleys, atmospheric sources of sulfate dominate inland, and sea spray dominates near the coast, though in both settings a non-negligible terrestrial weathering component is also inferred ( Bao and Marchant, 2006 ). Chloride also shows diminishing influence of sea spray with distance inland ( Bao et al...

... ). Atmospheric sources of cations are principally sea spray and its constituents dissolved in precipitation. The 87 Sr/ 86 Sr ratio of modern seawater, sea spray, and Hawaiian precipitation is 0.7092. In many continental calcretes, Mg 2+ is taken up in clay minerals such as palygorskite or smectite...
