Abstract: | The silicocarnotite, as an inorganic part of the coatings, has been synthesized using a polystep sol-gel method. The chemical
composition of the prepared silicocarnotite sol is described as 58.12 CaO, 29.42 P2O5, 12.45 SiO2 (wt%), where Ca/P+Si = 1,67. The acid soluble type I collagen, as an organic part of the obtained coatings, was mixed with
silicocarnotite powder in a weight ratio of 25:75 and 75:25 weight ratio without cross-linkage. The acidity of the obtained
mixture was readjust with 25% NH4OH to pH = 9.0. The mixture was then dried at 37°C for 12 h.
The growth of B-type carbonate containing hydroxyapatite (B-type CO3HA) in which CO3
2+→PO4
3− on the surface of collagen/silicocarnotite coatings soaked in 1.5 simulated body fluid (1.5 SBF) was observed. The nucleation
of B-type CO3HA was estimated on the obtained coatings after 3 days immersion in 1.5 SBF. The negatively charged carboxylate groups from
the collagen surface may be responsible for the HA deposition. This was confirmed by the “red shift” of carboxylate groups
of collagen molecules in the FTIR spectra. After soaking in 1.5 SBF, the morphology of prepared coatings and HA formation
was observed by SEM. |
