To achieve better biocompatibility with living tissues metal implants made of Ti-6Al-4V are often coated by calcium hydroxyapatite. Deposition techniques of calcium hydroxyapatite coatings using dipping method on metal implants almost not used. This paper presents new dipping-solution compounds used for deposition of hydroxyapatite on Ti-6Al-4V alloy. Scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffractometry have been used to study morphology, element and phase structure
