Zinc and its alloys show a good application prospect as a new biodegradable material. However, one of the drawbacks is that Zn and its alloys would induce the release of more Zn ions, which are reported to be cytotoxic to cells. In this study, a Ca-P-Sr bioactive coating was prepared on the surface of pure zinc by the hydrothermal method to address this issue. The morphology, thickness, and composition were characterized, and the effects of the coating on the degradation, cell viability, and ALP staining were investigated. The results demonstrated that the degradation rate of pure zinc was reduced, while the cytocompatibility was significantly improved after pure zinc was treated with Ca-P-Sr coating. It is considered that the Ca-P-Sr bioactive coating prepared by the hydrothermal method has promising application in the clinic.
