The antibacterial activity of the silver chloride loaded MSPs(AgCI-MSPs) was evaluated by the minimum bactericidal concentration(MBC) against Candida albieans(ATCC 10231). The AgC1-MSPs with the highest antibacterial activity were then dispersed in hybrid coatings with different mass ratios to fabricate antibacterial coatings. The antibacterial activity of the coatings was tested against Candida albicans{ATCC 10231) and Streptococcus mutans(ATCC 25175). The resulting antibacterial coatings exhibited high antibacterial activity, good adhesion to the substrate and high hardness.展开更多

The HMSPs possess radially oriented pore channels and a high loading amount of AgCl. The AgCl loaded HMSPs were then dispersed in hybrid coatings with different mass ratios to fabricate antibacterial coatings. The antibacterial activities of the coatings were tested against Candida albicans(ATCC 10231) and Streptococcus mutants(ATCC 25175). The resulting antibacterial coatings exhibited high antibacterial activities, high hardness, and acceptable adhesion to the substrate.展开更多

The results showed that AgSt/AgC1 composite grains were composed of plateqike AgSt grains with small face-centered cubic AgC1 particles formed on the surface of AgSt. UV spectra displayed a red shift of absorption for AgSt/AgC1 relative to pure AgSt or AgC1. DSC showed a new thermal phase transition of AgSt/AgC1 grains.展开更多
