Abstract:
316L stainless steel alloys are widely employed in the biomedical application for replacement defect bones for old and young .This study aims to improve the coating layer by applying pulsed electrophoretic deposition PEFD technique by depositing a coating layer from chitosan and hydroxyapatite. The characterization of the layer was done using scanning electron microscope spectroscopy Infrared spectroscope, contact angle and adhesion strength. The results showed that a homogeneous coating layer free of cracks and bubbles was obtained under a deposition time 10 minutes , frequency 50 Hz and a concentration of hydroxyapatite 0.6 g /100 ml with a  layer of coating resistant to E- coli bacteria.
