In this study, fracture toughness values of calcium phosphate (CaP) coatings deposited onto Ti6Al4V substrate were determined by using Vickers indentation method. In this new patent holding method, the activation processes were performed with NaOH and NaOH + H2O2 on the Ti6Al4V material surface. Thicknesses of CaP coatings were measured from crosssections of the samples by using optical microscopy. Vickers indentation tests were performed by using microhardness tester. Young's modulus values of the coatings were determined by using ultra microhardness tester. As a result, fracture toughness (K-1C) values of the CaP coatings produced by using two different activation processes, were calculated by using experimental study results. These were found to be 0.43 MPa m(1/2) and 0.39 MPa m(1/2), respectively. It was determined that the CaP coating on Ti6Al4V activated by NaOH + H2O2 had higher fracture toughness than the CaP coating on Ti6Al4V activated by NaOH.
