Sol-gel bioactive glass-ceramics Part II: Glass-ceramics in the CaO-SiO2-P2O5-MgO system

Ceramics, with basic composition based on the CaO-SiO₂-P₂O₅-MgO system with different Ca+ Mg/P+Si molar ratio (R), were prepared via polystep sol-gel technique. The structure of the obtained ceramic materials has been studied by XRD, FTIR spectroscopy, and SEM. X-ray diffraction showed the presence of akermanite and HA for the sample with R = 1.68 and Mg substituted β-TCP and silicocarnotite for the sample with R = 2.16, after thermal treatment at 1200°C/2 h. The obtained results are in good agreement with FTIR. In vitro test for bioactivity in static condition proved that the carbonate containing hydroxyapatite (CO₃HA) can be formed on the surface of the synthesized samples. CO₃HA consisted of both A- and B-type CO₃²⁻ ions. SEM micrographs depicted different forms of HA particles, precipitated on the surface after soaking in 1.5 simulated body fluid (SBF).

A new series of water soluble platinum(II) complexes of the type [Pt(DACH)[R-CH(COO)₂]], wherein DACH represents IR,2R-cyclohexanediamine and R represents formamido. acetamido, (penta-O-acctyl-gluconyl)amino, and gluconylamino have been synthesized. The modes of binding of amidodicarboxylic acid derivatives in these complexes have been determined by various spectroscopic techniques: ¹H, ¹³ C, and ¹⁹⁵PtNMR; 2D-COSY{¹H-¹H} and 2D-HETCOSY{¹H-¹³C} NMR, MS(FAB), IR and conductivity measurements.     

Surface characteristics of Ti‐10Ta‐10Nb alloy modified by hydrogen peroxide treatment for dental implants

The use of titanium‐based alloys as biomaterials is becoming more common because they have a reduced elastic modulus, superior biocompatibility, specific strength, good corrosion resistance, superior strain control, and fatigue resistance compared to conventional stainless steel and Co? Cr alloys. However, when implanted into the human body these metals are problematic because they do not directly bond with living bone. Surface treatments play an important role in nucleating calcium phosphate deposition on a surgical titanium alloy implant. The purpose of this study is to examine whether the precipitation of apatite on Ti? 10Ta? 10Nb alloy is affected by surface modification in H₂O₂ solution. Specimens were chemically treated with a solution containing 30 wt% H₂O₂ at 80 °C for 1 h, and subsequently heat treated at 400 °C for 1 h. All specimens were immersed in SBF (Simulated Body Fluid) with a pH of 7.4 at 36.5 °C for seven days, and the surfaces were examined with XRD, SEM, EDX and in vitro testing. The microstructure analysis of the Ti? 10Ta? 10Nb alloy after etching with Keller's etchant showed a Widmanstatten pattern. The micro‐Vickers hardness number was 236.44 ± 4.99, and surface roughness was increased by the surface treatment. The wettability after surface treatment was better than on the nontreated surface. Resistance to cytotoxicity was decreased by the chemical surface treatment (P < 0.05). Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Bioactivity and mechanical properties of nickel‐incorporated hydrogenated carbon nanocomposite thin films

In this paper, the influence of nickel incorporation on the mechanical properties and the in vitro bioactivity of hydrogenated carbon thin films were investigated in detail. Amorphous hydrogenated carbon (a‐C:H) and nickel‐incorporated hydrogenated carbon (Ni/a‐C:H) thin films were deposited onto the Si substrates by using reactive biased target ion beam deposition technique. The films' chemical composition, surface roughness, microstructure and mechanical properties were investigated by using XPS, AFM, TEM, nanoindentation and nanoscratch test, respectively. XPS results have shown that the film surface is mainly composed of nickel, nickel oxide and nickel hydroxide, whereas at the core is nickel carbide (Ni₃C) only. The presence of Ni₃C has increased the sp² carbon content and as a result, the mechanical hardness of the film was decreased. However, Ni/a‐C:H films shows very low friction coefficient with higher scratch‐resistance behavior than that of pure a‐C:H film. In addition, in vitro bioactivity study has confirmed that it is possible to grow dense bone‐like apatite layer on Ni/a‐C:H films. Thus, the results have indicated the suitability of the films for bone‐related implant coating applications. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
