Apatite layer growth on glassy Zr48Cu36Al8Ag8 sputtered titanium for potential biomedical applications
Abstract
The bioactivity of magnetron sputtered thin film metallic glasses (TFMGs) of Zr48Cu36Al8Ag8(at.%) ontitanium substrates was tested for bio implant applications. The structural and elemental compositions of TFMGs were analyzed by XRD, XPS and EDAX. X-ray diffraction analysis displayed a broad hump aroundthe incident angle of 30–50◦, suggesting that the coatings possess a glassy structure. An in situ crystal growth of hydroxyapatite was observed by soaking the sputtered specimen in simulated body fluid (SBF). The nucleation and growth of a calcium phosphate (Ca–P) bone-like hydroxyapatite on Zr48Cu36Al8Ag8(at.%) TFMG from SBF was investigated by using XRD, AFM and SEM. The presence of calcium and phosphorus elements was confirmed by EDAX and XPS. In vitro electrochemical corrosion studies indicated that the Zr-based TFMG coating sustain in the stimulated body-fluid (SBF), exhibiting superior corrosion resistance with a lower corrosion penetration rate and electrochemical stability than the bare crystalline titanium substrate.
