Chemical nanoroughening of Ti40Nb surfaces and its effect on human mesenchymal stromal cell response

Abstract: Samples of low modulus beta-type Ti40Nb and cp2-Ti were chemically treated with 98% H2 SO4 + 30% H2 O2 (vol. ratio 1:1) solution. Surface analytical studies conducted with HR-SEM, AFM, and XPS identified a characteristic nanoroughness of the alloy surface related with a network of nanopits of ∼25 nm diameter. This is very similar to that obtained for cp2-Ti. The treatment enhances the oxide layer growth compared to mechanically ground states and causes a strong enrichment of Nb2 O5 relative to TiO2 on the allo… Show more

“…The highest proliferation was observed for an Nb 2 O 5 -containing coating. Increased adhesion and spreading of human mesenchymal stromal cells on the Piranha etched surface of a Ti40Nb alloy containing an Nb 2 O 5 phase relative to the adhesion and spreading of the cells on the etched surface of Ti with the same surface topography has recently been observed [22]. In line with our previous results [4], the increased biocompatibility of the alloy surface was attributed to the presence of the surface Nb 2 O 5 phase, which strongly affects the surface energy and the charge of the alloy.…”

“…Cylindrical rods of nominal compositions Ti-xNb (x = 16, 18.5, 21, 23.5, 26, 28.5, 31 wt.% Nb) 2 were prepared by casting methods in two steps [13,28]. First, button-shaped ingots were obtained by arcmelting pure Ti and Nb according to the desired composition.…”

“…Finally, the alloy composition was determined by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (iCAP 6500 Duo, Thermo Fisher Scientific GmbH, Germany). The structural state of the cast and homogenized samples was checked with X-ray diffraction (STOE Stadi P instrument, STOE & CIE GmbH, Germany) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM, LEO 1530 Gemini, Carl Zeiss, Germany) and verified a polycrystalline single b-phase state with a mean grain size of approximately 70 mm [9].…”
