Pine oil mixed with hydroxyapatite for coating on CoCr alloy under heat treatment as a biomaterial for bone replacement application

CoCr-Legierungen wurden und werden für orthopädische Implantate verwendet, da sie eine Kombination aus hoher Festigkeit, Korrosionsbeständigkeit und Biokompatibilität ermöglichen. Seit 1985 wurden metallische Implantate umfassend untersucht, die mit Calciumphosphaten beschichtet sind, um die Biokompatibilität und die Anindung an das angrenzende Knochengewebe zu verbessern. Trotz des Fortschritts und der Entwicklung vieler Technologien ist die Ausfallrate solcher Implantate immer noch ein Problem. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurde ein neuer und einfacher Weg entwickelt, um eine Hydroxylapatit (HAp) -Beschichtung auf einer CoCr-Legierung vermittels einer Suspension aus umweltfreundlichem Kiefernöl (PO), das mit HAp-Partikeln gemischt ist, zu erhalten. Die HAp-Beschichtung wurde unter Verwendung eines Pinsels auf den CoCr-Substraten aufgebracht, gefolgt von einer Wärmebehandlung bei 800°C für 1 Stunde, um die Haftung zwischen dem Substrat und der Schicht zu verbessern. Verschiedene durch Polieren, Passivieren und einer Wärmebehandlung hergestellte Oberflächenmorphologien sowie ein unbehandeltes Substrat wurden getestet und dann beschichtet, um den Einfluss der Rauheit auf die Wechselwirkung zwischen Substrat und Beschichtung zu bewerten. Die Benetzbarkeit wurden wurde durch Kontaktwinkelmessungen bestimmt. Der Kontaktwinkel von Wasser auf den Metallimplantatoberflächen war viel höher (68°) als der von PO (23°), was einen homogeneren Beschichtungsprozess ermöglichte, wenn PO für die HAp-Suspension verwendet wurde. Rasterelektronenmikroskopie- (REM), Röntgenbeugungs- (XRD) und Fourier-Transform-Infrarotspektroskopie (FTIR) -Analysen ergaben, dass die Substrate vollständig mit reinem HAp bedeckt waren. Die Wechselwirkung zwischen Substrat und Beschichtung wurde mittels REM, optischem Profilometer und Bleistift-Kratztest analysiert. Es wurde eine gute Partikelverteilung und für alle getesteten Oberflächenmorphologien eine stabile Bindung zum Substrat nachgewiesen. Die in vitro in simulierter Körperflüssigkeit (SBF) durchgeführten Bioaktivitätstests zeigten eine hohe Beständigkeit gegen Abbau und es wurde eine verringerte Bildung von Rissen auf den Oberflächen nach 21 Tagen Auslagerung beobachtet. Potentiodynamische Polarizations- und Cyclovoltammetrieanalysen bestätigten, dass die beschichteten und unbeschichteten Proben eine gute Korrosionsbeständigkeit zeigten. Die HAp-Beschichtung auf dem passivierten Substrat zeigte im Vergleich zu unbeschichteten Proben eine überlegene Korrosionsbeständigkeit, und es kann angenommen werden, dass hierbei die HAp-Beschichtung den Oberflächenschutz gegen Korrosion verbessert. Die Hochtemperaturbehandlung förderte jedoch die Abnahme der Korrosionsbeständigkeit im Falle des beschichteten, polierten Substrats, was auch das Wachstum von menschlichen primären Zellen aus Knochengewebe beeinflusste, die für in vitro-Zytokompatibilitätstests der verschiedenen Oberflächenmodifikationen verwendet wurden. Um die hohen Kosten und die Komplexität der konventionellen Abscheidungsmethoden und das damit verbundene Risiko einer Phasenumwandlung von HAp zu überwinden, bietet diese Arbeit eine einfache und effiziente Möglichkeit, HAp als mögliche Alternative zur Verbesserung von Knochenimplantaten auf metallische Substrate aufzutragen.:List of Figures vi

Acknowledgements 90 / CoCr alloys have been used for orthopedic implants as they allow combining high strength, corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. Since 1985 metallic implants coated with calcium phosphates have been widely studied to improve the biocompatibility and adequate bonding to the adjacent bones, but despites of advances and development of many technologies, rate of failure of such implants still are a problem. In the present work, a novel and simple route was developed to obtain hydroxyapatite (HAp) coating on CoCr alloy from a slurry of eco-friendly pine oil (PO) mixed with HAp particles. The HAp coating was deposited onto CoCr substrates using a paint brushing followed by heat treatment at 800°C for 1 h in order to improve the adhesion between the substrate and coating. Several substrate surface morphologies made by polishing, passivation, heat treatment and remaining the substrate untreated were tested, and then coated to evaluate the influence of the roughness on the interaction between substrate and coating. Wettability tests were carried out by sessile drop method; the contact angle of water on the metal implant surfaces was much higher (68°) than that of PO (23°), allowing a more homogeneous coating process when PO was used for HAp suspension. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analyses indicated a substrate fully covered by pure HAp. The interaction between substrate and coating was analyzed by SEM, optical profilometer and pencil scratch tests. Good particle distribution and tight bonding to the substrate were found for all surfaces morphologies tested. The bioactivity tests in vitro performed in simulated body fluid (SBF) showed high resistance to degradation and a decreased formation of cracks was observed on the surfaces after 21 days of soaking. Potentiodynamic polarization and cyclic voltammetry analyses corroborated that the coated and uncoated samples showed good corrosion resistance. The HAp coating on the passivated substrate presented a superior corrosion resistance compared to uncoated ones and it can be assumed that the HAp coating improve the surface protection against corrosion. However, the high temperature treatment promoted decrease of corrosion resistance in case of the coated polished substrate, which also affected the growth of human primary bone-derived cells which were used for in vitro cytocompatibility tests of the different surface modifications. In order to overcome the high costs and complexity of the conventional deposition methods and the risk of phase transformation of HAp, related to those, this thesis presents a straightforward and efficient route to coat HAp onto metallic substrates as a potential alternative for improvement of bone implants.:List of Figures vi

Acknowledgements 90 / Ligas de CoCr têm sido empregadas em implantes ortopédicos por permitirem a combinação de alta resistência mecânica, resistência a corrosão e biocompatibilidade. Implantes metálicos revestidos com fosfatos de cálcio têm sido estudados desde 1985 devido a sua capacidade de aumentar a biocompatibilidade e promover a ligação adequada com os ossos adjacentes. No entanto, apesar de todos os avanços e o desenvolvimento de muitas tecnologias, a taxa de falha destes implantes ainda é um problema. No presente trabalho, uma nova e simples rota foi desenvolvida para revestir a liga de CoCr com hidroxiapatita (HAp) a partir de uma mistura óleo de pinho (PO) ecológica com partículas de HAp. O revestimento de HAP foi depositado sobre o substrato de CoCr usando uma pincel de pintura seguido de tratamento térmico a 800 °C por 1 h a fim de aumentar a adesão entre o substrato e o revestimento. Foram testadas diversas morfologias de superfície do substrato, sendo estas polidas, passivadas, tratadas termicamente, além de um substrato não tratado, e em seguida foram revestidas para avaliar a influencia da rugosidade na interação entre substrato e revestimento. Testes de molhabilidade foram realizados pelo método de gota séssil; o ângulo de contato da água na superfície metálica do implante foi muito maior (68°) que os com PO (23°), permitindo uma maior homogeneidade no processo de revestimento quando utilizado PO na suspensão de HAp. Análises por Microscopia Eletrônica de Varredura (MEV), difração de raio-x (DRX) e espectroscopia infravermelha por transforma de Fourier (FTIR) indicaram que o substrato foi completamente coberto com a HAp pura. A interação entre o substrato e o revestimento foi analisada por MEV, perfilômetro óptico e teste de arrancamento, os quais demonstraram uma boa distribuição de partículas e uma próxima ligação para todas as morfologias de superfície testadas. Testes in vitro de bioatividade foram realizados com fluido corpóreo simulado (SBF) e apresentaram alta resistência a degradação e uma redução da formação de trincas na superfície foi observada após 21 dias de imersão. Análises de polarização potenciodinâmica e voltametria cíclica comprovaram uma boa resistência à corrosão nas amostras revestidas e não revestidas. O revestimento de HAp no substrato passivado apresentou uma resistência à corrosão superior aos não revestido e pode ser assumido que o revestimento de HAp melhorou a proteção da superfície contra corrosão. No entanto, o tratamento térmico com alta temperatura promoveu uma diminuição da resistência à corrosão no caso do substrato polido revestido, no qual afetou o crescimento de células primárias derivadas de osso humano que foram usadas nos testes de citocompatibilidade in vitro nas diferentes superfícies modificadas. A fim de solucionar o alto custo e a complexidade no método convencional de deposição, além dos riscos da transformação de fase da HAp, esta tese apresenta uma direta e eficiente rota de revestimento de HAp em substratos metálicos como uma potencial alternativa para o melhoramento de implantes ósseos.:List of Figures vi
