In this work, laser interference lithography was employed to fabricate the microstructures of grooves, dots and dimples onto the surfaces of Ti-6Al-4V samples. Two and three beam LIL systems were developed to carry out the experiments. The laser treatment resulted in the increases of the roughness and the contact angle of water on the implant alloy surfaces. The proliferation of osteoblasts was analyzed by MTT （3-（4,5-dirnethyl- 2-thiazolyl）-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide） assay for the time periods of 4 hours, 2 days, 3 days, and 6 days. The MTT test results demonstrated that the laser treatment surfaces had a positive impact on the proliferation of os- teoblast cells after 24 hours. The alloy surface morphology and the morphological changes of MG63 cells cultured on the laser textured Ti-6Al-4V surface were observed by Scanning Electron Microscope （SEM）. The SEM results indicated that the os- teoblast cells were aligned on grooved surfaces and they were prolonged with the structures. Enzymatic detachment results showed that the 20 μm grooved structures provided the better cell adhesion to the textured Ti-6Al-4V surfaces.展开更多

In this study, threedimensional nanocomposite scaffolds consisting of calcium phosphate （Ca-P） nanoparticles and poly（hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate） （PHBV） copolymer with controlled external and internal architectures were successfully produced via selective laser sintering （SLS）, one of the versatile rapid prototyping techniques. The Ca-PIPHBV nanocomposite scaffolds had a porosity of （61.75±1.24）%, compressive strength of （2.16±0.21） MPa and Young＇s modulus of （26.98±2.29） MPa. The surface modification of scaffolds by gelatin was achieved through physical entrapment. The amount of entrapped gelatin could be controlled by varying the solvent composition and reaction time. The surface modification improved the hydrophilicity of scaffolds but did not significantly affect the surface morphology and mechanical properties. Osteoblast-like cells （SaOS-2） were cultured on scaffolds with and without gelatin surface modification. The majority of SaOS-2 cells were viable and proliferated in both types of scaffolds for up to 14 d in culture, as indicated by MTT assay and live and dead assay. Surface modification significantly increased cell proliferation for surface modified scaffolds, which could be due to the improvement in hydrophilicity of the scaffolds.展开更多

The process allows, depending on the parameters, a local halogenation with sharp edges at the interfaces to areas where no halogenation is desired. This is achieved via a nonreactive halogen-containing gaseous precursor and a UV source providing photons which dissociate the precursor photolytically. Thus, only where the UV photons affect the precursor, halogens are generated and the polymer is being halogenated.展开更多

The influence of process parameters was studied. The microstructure and composition of the coatings were analyzed by SEM, XRD and EDS. The hardness and wear-resistant property of the coatings and Q235 steel were measured. The results show that LMI layer can be achieved only under the condition that process parameters meet the strict requirements. By optimizing the process parameter, excellent coatings can be acquired by injecting WC powder onto the surface of Q235 steel. The microstructure in the coatings is complex, which consists of WC, W2C and M6C(Fe3W3C-Fe4W2C) phases. The difference of Fe3W3C microstructure in different zones of the coatings is obvious. Both the compositions of the reaction layers around the particle and dendrite precipitation carbides in the upper coating are Fe3W3C. The average hardness of LMI layer is above HV 900, which is about four times that of Q235 steel. The friction coefficient of LMI layer is only one quarter that of the substrate, which indicates that the wear resistance of the coatings is enhanced sharply.展开更多
