Plasma Surface Modification Graft Polymerization of Metal Polymer Materials

Graft polymerization is one of the commonly used methods in plasma surface modification. The grafting of appropriate monomers or polymers can improve the hydrophilicity, adhesion, corrosion resistance, electrical conductivity and biocompatibility of metal polymer materials. Agnesr, Denes et al. grafted polyethylene glycol (PEG) onto the surface of stainless steel by plasma surface modification. XPS results showed that the introduction of a large number of -CH2-CH2-O groups on the surface of stainless steel could significantly improve the surface hydrophilicity of the material. It can reduce the roughness and greatly reduce the adsorption of bacteria on the surface of the material. In the treatment of coronary vascular disease, the common clinical method is to do coronary angioplasty (PTCA). That is, in the blood vessel with metal dilator will be open, but the polymer metallized Steetan fixed film used in them still has a high coagulation, so the blood vessel will be restenosis. Lahann et al. polymerized p-xylene chloride on the surface of polymer metal by CVD method, and then treated with SO2 microwave plasma. The results show that the contact Angle is reduced to 15 degrees after treated with SO2 plasma, and the hydrophilicity of the material surface is improved. The adhesion between polymer and metal is involved in the grafting of polymeric organic matter on the surface of metal plasma or the metallization of polymer surface. E.C.Zhang et al. studied the adhesion of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) to metal aluminum. They first pretreated PTFE with an argon plasma at a frequency of 40kHz, a power of 35W, and an argon pressure of 80Pa. And its exposure to the atmosphere about 10 min to produce oxide and peroxide, and then conducted on the acrylic ester of glycerol alcohol namely GMA graft copolymerization, and then to thermal evaporation aluminum, make with GMA graft copolymer of PTFE and PTFE is the adhesion force between A and 22 times between Al, that only by Ar plasma pretreatment of 3 times between PTFE and Al. E.D ayss respectively with three methods (mechanical casting rough method, oxygen, nitrogen, argon, low pressure plasma and produce interlayers method) to deal with polypropylene, research metal polymer on the adhesive properties, the results show that mechanical casting rough method in the improvement of adhesion of polypropylene and q of copper is valid, but the plasma treatment can lead to better results, especially the Ar plasma, plasma polymerization of acrylic acid middle tier contains C - 0 keys showed very strong adhesive.

Methods of surface modification of biomedical metal materials

Biomedical chemical method for surface modification of metal materials is a new kind of technology developed in recent years. This is based on the idea that bioactive substances are directly attached to the modified metal substrate, and organic macromolecular substances such as proteins or enzymes are introduced into the substrate surface to make it have better biological activity, so it has the characteristics of more direct and more effective. Some researchers have treated metal surfaces with NH3 and N2 plasma to introduce amino groups, which are then quaternized by methane iodide reaction. Heparin, an anticoagulant with a negative charge sulfate, is then used to form a complex with the quaternized amino groups on the surface, thus fixing heparin on the metal surface. The nitrogen group formed on the metal surface can also be used to fix proteins. Most metal materials are coated with a hydrophilic polymer film. Under certain conditions, it will interact with [H] or H- to form hydroxyl groups (-OH) adhering to the surface of the matrix. In this case, the matrix is silylated with APS(An1Inopropyltriethox-YSI-Lane) plasma. Some proteins or enzymes, such as trypsin, are bonded to the surface of the matrix by the action of glutarate aldehyde. This method can fix living biomolecules on the surface of metallic, inorganic, non-porous and non-loose biomaterials, thus greatly improving the surface activity of the materials. Most metal substrates, such as Ti, Ti6Al4V, Co-Cr-Mo and TiTA30, can be modified by plasma grafting of organic matter to adsorb biomolecules directly on the surface. Artificial biomaterials used for transplantation, tissue culture or other purposes must be biocompatible with the biological environment in which they are used. At present, the development needs the biocompatibility of the adherent cell surface, focused on the fixed ECM proteins and metal substrate surface, for those who don't need to attach to cells, such as blood cells used in material surface modification technology is to produce highly inert surface, such as hydrocarbons, fluoride or bioactive molecules to ban cell fixation, or producing highly hydrophilic groups, etc.

Biological research plasma surface treatment equipment to improve the corrosion resistance of metal

Once the metal material in the biological body corrodes, the corrosion products generated by the dissolved metal ions will have a bad effect on the human body, so the corrosion must be controlled. Research shows that the metal material itself will not produce allergic reaction to the human body, but because of corrosion and dissolved metal ions or dissolved ions in the form of metal salt and the combination of biological molecules or the form of abrasive powder will cause harm to the human body. In addition, the fracture of metal materials in the human body is usually caused by fatigue and friction fatigue, but these two factors are not simple, in fact, it is caused by corrosion fatigue, and corrosion is closely related. To prevent the toxicity of metal materials in the human body. To improve its safe use and prolong its service life, in the biological environment, biological research plasma surface treatment equipment on the corrosion performance of metal materials is very important. At present, most of the commonly used clinical medical stainless steel contains nickel (such as medical 316I stainless steel containing nickel for 10 ~ 14). Nickel element is a potential sensitization factor. The precipitation and enrichment of nickel ions in human body due to corrosion or wear can induce toxic effects, cell destruction and inflammatory reactions. Similarly, the Co and Ni elements in medical Cobalt-based alloys also have serious sensitization problems. The V and Al in medical titanium alloy are also harmful to organisms. These problems restrict the application of metal biomaterials. Metallic biomaterials direct contact with the body's tissues, in order to make implant materials, give full play to its function in the body by plasma surface modification on it, for example, in the stainless steel surface by a layer of polymer film, low temperature plasma grafting or spraying a layer of diamond thin films, in cobalt base alloy and titanium alloy surface with biological research of plasma surface treatment equipment of the preparation of plasma grafting TiO2 thin film can effectively prevent the precipitation of nickel ions, improve its corrosion resistance, reduce the abrasion of the product ion precipitation around the implants adverse reactions, greatly improve the safety of biological implant materials use for a long time.

The characteristic of this technology is that the surface properties can be changed by selectively changing the functional groups of the surface, so as to achieve the required surface properties.
