Surface modification of polypropylene with an atmospheric pressure plasma jet sustained in argon and an argon/water vapour mixture

In this paper, an atmospheric pressure plasma jet sustained in pure argon and an argon/water vapour mixture has been used to modify the surface of polypropylene (PP) films. The gas temperature of the plasma jet was found to be 625 K in an active zone between the electrodes and was found to increase in the afterglow. Based on these results, the PP films are placed as close as possible to the edge of the capillary in order to avoid thermal damage to the polymer. XPS results on the untreated and modified PP samples revealed incorporation of a significant amount of oxygen on the polymer surface, however, this oxygen inclusion is more pronounced for the argon/water vapour jet due to the higher radicals density in the jet afterglow. One can therefore conclude that adding water vapour to an argon plasma jet can be a convenient way to increase the efficiency of plasma surface modification.     

Enhanced in vitro biocompatibility of ultrafine-grained biomedical NiTi alloy with microporous surface

Bulk ultrafine-grained Ni_50.8Ti_49.2 alloy (UFG-NiTi) was successfully fabricated by equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) technique in the present study, and to further improve its surface biocompatibility, surface modification techniques including sandblasting, acid etching and alkali treatment were employed to produce either irregularly roughened surface or microporous surface or hierarchical porous surface with bioactivity. The effect of the above surface treatments on the surface roughness, wettability, corrosion behavior, ion release, apatite forming ability and cytocompatibility of UFG-NiTi alloy were systematically investigated with the coarse-grained NiTi alloy as control. The pitting corrosion potential (E_pit) was increased from 393 mV (SCE) to 704 mV (SCE) with sandblasting and further increased to 1539 mV (SCE) with following acid etching in HF/HNO₃ solution. All the above surface treatment increased the apatite forming ability of UFG-NiTi in varying degrees when soaked them in simulated body fluid (SBF). Meanwhile, both sandblasting and acid etching could promote the cytocompatibility for osteoblasts: sandblasting enhanced cell attachment and acid etching increased cell proliferation. The different corrosion behavior, apatite forming ability and cellular response of UFG-NiTi after different surface modifications are attributed to the topography and wettability of the resulting surface oxide layer.     

Effect of stearic acid, zinc stearate coating on the properties of synthetic hydromagnesite

Synthetic hydromagnesite (SHM), used as flame retardant for polymers, may have similar or better flame retardancy effectiveness than aluminum tri-hydroxide (ATH) and magnesium di-hydroxide (MDH). Suitable surface modifiers are often employed to improve its dispersion and compatibility with polymer matrix. In this study, we chose stearic acid (SA) and zinc stearate (ZS) as the surface modifier, and investigated the properties of SHM modified with various surface modifier content using dry blending coating process. Scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermogravimetry (TG), particle size distribution, contact angle, oil absorption, bulk density, tapped density and Carr's index were employed to characterize the effect of surface modification. The results showed that the surface of SHM powders was changed from hydrophilic to lipophilic. The flowability of the surface modified powder was also improved. TG graphs showed that the surface modifier had no obvious influence on the degradation pathway of the SHM.
