摘要
A uniform and dense TiO2 film was grown on the surface of porous NiTi shape memory alloys(SMAs) successfully by RF magnetron sputtering.The morphology and composition of the surface film were analyzed by using scanning electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.The corrosion resistance measurement proved that the surface modified porous NiTi SMAs exhibit better corrosion resistance and over 25% reduction of Ni ion release in the blood of the rabbits in comparing with the samples without surface modification.Moreover,the biocompatibility,as demonstrated by cell adherence and implant surgery,revealed that the cell adherence and bone tissue inducing capability are respectively enhanced over 1.1-1.2 and 9-10 times by sputtering a uniform TiO2 film on the surfaces of porous NiTi SMAs.
