Abstract
This study aims to evaluate and compare the properties of a biomedical clinically established zirconium nitride (ZrN) multilayer coating prepared using two different techniques: pulsed magnetron sputtering and cathodic arc deposition. The investigation focuses on the crystalline structure, grain size, in-vitro oxidation behaviour and tribological performance of these two coating techniques. Experimental findings demonstrate that the sputter deposition process resulted in a distinct crystalline structure and smaller grain size compared to the arc deposition process. Furthermore, in vitro oxidation caused oxygen to penetrate the surface of the sputtered ZrN top layer to a depth of 700 nm compared to 280 nm in the case of the arc-deposited coating. Finally, tribological testing revealed the improved wear rate of the ZrN multilayer coating applied by sputter deposition.
期刊介绍：
Journal of Functional Biomaterials (JFB, ISSN 2079-4983) is an international and interdisciplinary scientific journal that publishes regular research papers (articles), reviews and short communications about applications of materials for biomedical use. JFB covers subjects from chemistry, pharmacy, biology, physics over to engineering. The journal focuses on the preparation, performance and use of functional biomaterials in biomedical devices and their behaviour in physiological environments. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their results in as much detail as possible. Therefore, there is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Several topical special issues will be published. Scope: adhesion, adsorption, biocompatibility, biohybrid materials, bio-inert materials, biomaterials, biomedical devices, biomimetic materials, bone repair, cardiovascular devices, ceramics, composite materials, dental implants, dental materials, drug delivery systems, functional biopolymers, glasses, hyper branched polymers, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), nanomedicine, nanoparticles, nanotechnology, natural materials, self-assembly smart materials, stimuli responsive materials, surface modification, tissue devices, tissue engineering, tissue-derived materials, urological devices.
