In the last decade, Calcium Titanate has been introduced as a bioceramic with acceptable mechanical and biological properties for orthopaedic implant applications. In this study, CaTiO3 nano-structure coating was produced by sol-gel dip-coating route for biomedical applications. Calcium nitrate and titanium isopropoxide were used as a precursor. After coating process, the specimen was subjected to rapid thermal annealing (RTA) at 800°C. The phase structure, functional groups and surface morphology of coating were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Uniform crack-free nano-structured coatings were obtained with perovskite crystal structure.
