Abstract
Calcium phosphate/chitosan composites have been extensively studied as bone substitutes, tissue engineering scaffolds, or bone cements. In
the present study, we have prepared octacalcium phosphate (OCP) micro-fiber/chitosan composite coatings through an electrochemical deposition
method. OCP coatings with microporous structure, which are woven by micro-fibers with 2030 m in length and 0.11 m in width, have a
good ability to incorporate chitosan. This novel OCP micro-fiber/chitosan composite coating could have broad applications in the biomedical
engineering.

1. Introduction
Titanium is the most widely used metallic biomedical
materials used in orthopedics due to its good mechanical
properties. Various techniques have been developed to deposit
bioceramic coatings on titanium substrates to improve their
surface bioactivity as reviewed by de Groot et al. [1]. Among
them, electrochemical deposition (ED) is one of the most
commonly used methods. Ease of processing control, variability
of the coating composition, the possibility of protein delivery
and the suitability for complex implant geometries have made
the ED method increasingly popular [2]. Different types of
calcium phosphate (Ca-P) bioceramic coatings have been
achieved with the ED method, such as dicalcium phosphate
dehydrate (DCPD, CaHPO42H2O) [3], dicalcium phosphate
