Enhanced physicochemical and biological properties of ion-implanted Titanium using Electron Cyclotron Resonance ion sources
The surface properties of metallic implants play an important role in their
clinical success. Improving upon the inherent shortcomings of Ti implants, such
as poor bioactivity, is imperative for achieving clinical use. In this study,
we have developed a Ti implant modified with Ca or dual Ca + Si ions on the
surface using an electron cyclotron resonance ion source (ECRIS). The
physicochemical and biological properties of ion-implanted Ti surfaces were
analyzed using various analytical techniques, such as surface analyses,
potentiodynamic polarization and cell culture. Experimental results indicated
that a rough morphology was observed on the Ti substrate surface modified by
ECRIS plasma ions. The in vitro electrochemical measurement results also
indicated that the Ca + Si ion-implanted surface had a more beneficial and
desired behavior than the pristine Ti substrate. Compared to the pristine Ti
substrate, all ion-implanted samples had a lower hemolysis ratio. MG63 cells
cultured on the high Ca and dual Ca + Si ion-implanted surfaces revealed
significantly greater cell viability in comparison to the pristine Ti
substrate. In conclusion, surface modification by electron cyclotron resonance
Ca and Si ion sources could be an effective method for Ti implants
