Abstract:
In this study, a biomimetic coating in which hydroxyapatite (HAp) and collagen (Col), the major components of bone, were coated together on titanium was performed using the ECD method. The polished CP-Ti (commocially pure–titanium) disks (Ti-As), and the roughened CP-Ti disks (Ti-R) fabricated by anodic oxidation method were prepared. An electrolyte (E) was prepared by mixing Ca(NO 3 ) 2 and NH 4 H 2 PO 4 . Collagen-contaiing electrolyte (ECol) was prepared by adding collagen (Type-I) to E electrolyte. A pulse-type negative electric current of -5 mA, -10 mA, and -15 mA was applied to the titanium specimens, respectively.The temperature of electrolyte solution was maintained at 37℃. The fabricated specimens were named to Ti-As-E-5, Ti-As-E-10, Ti-As-E-15, Ti-As-ECol-5, Ti-As-ECol-10, Ti-As-ECol-15, Ti-R-E-5, Ti-R-E-10, Ti-R-E-15, Ti-R-ECol-5, Ti-R-ECol-10, and Ti-R-ECol-15, respectively. The nanorod-shaped crystallites were evenly formed on the surface of Ti-As-E groups. The length of nanorods on Ti-As-ECol groups was shorter than that on Ti-As-E groups. A low crystalline HAp structure was detected in X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of Ti-As-E groups. For Ti-As-ECol groups, the HAp structure was confirmed by analysis of the selected area electron diffraction (SAED) patterns obtained from a transmission electron microscope (TEM). Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) spectra of Ti-As-ECol groups showed the amide peaks assigned to collagen and related to carbonate apatite. Similarly to the Ti-As specimens, HAp crystallites were coated on Ti-R-E and Ti-R-ECol groups and their surface roughness was maintained. It is expected that the results of this study could be applied to the development of a biomimetic surface treatment method for titanium implants.
