Abstract:

Ag nanoparticles films were prepared by the potentiostatic electrodeposition strategy onto the surface of 316L stainless steel. The thin films were treated with an avantin solution of 1,1,2,2-perfluorooctyl triethoxysilane(25%, volume fraction) for 20 h to make surface hydrophobic. By controlling the deposition time and modification process, a series of modified materials with different hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties was prepared. Characterizations by means of scanning electron microscopy(SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDX) as well as contact angle measurements were performed. Then, MTT technique and flow cytometry examinations were employed for further investigations of the biocompatibility of this film towards human blood. Such modified 316L stainless steel was subsequently implanted into the experimental animals to study the biocompatibility towards tissue. It is verified that compared with the bare 316L stainless steel, the Ag nanoparticles films modified substrate demonstrated preferable blood and tissue compatibility. Such kind of modified material with improved hydrophobic superiority may be a promising candidate for further practical application as an ideal vascular scaffold stuff.
