Abstract
The AgMnFe2O4-MgO composite coatings with the Ag/(Mn+Fe) atomic ratio of 0, 0.3%, 1% and 3%, respectively were prepared by sol-gel method to improve antibacterial property and biocompatibility of titanium for orthopaedic implants. SEM observation shows rare cracks of the films due to the gelling effect of MgO and silver nanoparticles precipitation at the surface. XRD analysis reveals the decreased crystallinity of MnFe2O4 by the addition of MgO. XPS analysis indicates metallic Ag, high-valence manganese, Fe3+ and Mg2+ species in the composite film. Contact angle measurement and potentiodynamic polarization test show that the coating samples have higher contact angles and better corrosion resistance than the polished titanium. The bonding strength of the coating is relatively low tested by the pull-out method (2.6 MPa for sample with 1%Ag). Plate counting test demonstrates the silver content dependent antibacterial activity of the coating samples against E. coli, and the antibacterial rate reaches 100% at 1%Ag. MTT assay shows good compatibility with MC3T3-E1 cells for the samples with Ag ratio up to 1%. Silver, manganese ferrite and degradable MgO together determine the biological properties of the composite coatings.
期刊介绍:
The primary objective of the Journal of Sol-Gel Science and Technology (JSST), the official journal of the International Sol-Gel Society, is to provide an international forum for the dissemination of scientific, technological, and general knowledge about materials processed by chemical nanotechnologies known as the "sol-gel" process. The materials of interest include gels, gel-derived glasses, ceramics in form of nano- and micro-powders, bulk, fibres, thin films and coatings as well as more recent materials such as hybrid organic-inorganic materials and composites. Such materials exhibit a wide range of optical, electronic, magnetic, chemical, environmental, and biomedical properties and functionalities. Methods for producing sol-gel-derived materials and the industrial uses of these materials are also of great interest.
