Currently, phenomena such as civilizational development, the fast pace of life, and increased pollution are leading to the development of civilizational diseases. Research conducted over the years indicates that despite significant advances in medicine, problems related to the circulatory, skeletal, and immune systems are not decreasing. In addition, an aging population contributes to the development of many skeletal diseases. For this reason, it is necessary to work on increasingly advanced implants.

This paper focuses on the production of titanium–ceramic composite materials using powder metallurgy, followed by the selection of appropriate sintering conditions. The addition of hydroxyapatite to the metallic material introduces properties such as bioactivity, which improves the osseointegration of damaged bone tissue. In turn, the Ti6Al4V titanium alloy, as one of the widely used materials in implantology, is characterized by excellent mechanical properties and good biocompatibility.

The obtained materials were then subjected to structural and phase analysis. In order to assess their behavior under conditions resembling the physiological environment, tests were carried out in incubation fluids. Microstructural analysis of the composite surfaces was performed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM-EDS) to determine the amount of calcium and phosphorus, indicating the formation of apatite layers.

The studies indicate that the modification of titanium alloy with bioactive ceramics affects its physicochemical properties, particularly in terms of biocompatibility and integration with bone tissue. The introduction of this type of modification may contribute to the development of more advanced medical implants that effectively support the bone regeneration process.
