Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effects of hydrophilic treatment on the surface morphology and surface properties of pure titanium and titanium-zirconium alloy implants, and to provide reference for the studies of implant surface modification.
Methods:The pure titanium group, the hydrophilic pure titanium group, the titanium zirconium alloy group and the hydrophilic titanium-zirconium alloy group were prepared by sandblasting and acid-etching or hydrophilic sandblasting and acid-etching, (11 specimens in each group). The surface morphology and surface properties of four types of titanium specimens were analyzed by surface contact angle meter, scanning electron microscope (SEM), optical profilometer, atomic force microscope (AFM) and Raman spectrometer.
Results:The surface contact angles of hydrophilic pure titanium and hydrophilic titanium-zirconium alloy were 1.6°±0.3° and 1.5°±0.2°, and the surface contact angles of pure titanium and titanium-zirconium alloy were 101.4°±4.6° and 96.2°±3.0°, respectively. SEM showed that the nano-protrusions on the surface of pure titanium and titanium-zirconium alloys were less or even absent, while the nano-protrusions on the surface of hydrophilic pure titanium and hydrophilic titanium-zirconium alloys were relatively more; the nano-protrusions on the surface of hydrophilic pure titanium surface were small and dense relatively, but the nano-protrusions of the hydrophilic titanium-zirconium alloy had large diameters and were dispersed relatively. The optical profiler and AFM showed that the surface roughness of hydrophilic pure titanium and hydrophilic titanium-zirconium alloy was significantly higher than that of pure titanium and titanium-zirconium alloy (P<0.05). Raman spectroscopy showed that only the amorphous TiO2 was present on the surface of the pure titanium group, while the rutile TiO2 characteristic peak was observed in the other three groups, but the lateral inhomogeneity was observed. After Raman shift 610 cm-1, the Raman spectra of four groups were similar.
Conclusions:Hydrophilic sandblasting and acid-etching treatment can improve the surface hydrophilicity and surface roughness of pure titanium and titanium zirconium alloy, and improve the surface properties of pure titanium and titanium zirconium alloy implants.
