纯铁由于其可降解性和无毒性,在血管支架材料领域具有潜在的应用前景。本文采用等离子体浸没离子注入与沉积(PⅢ&D)方法,在纯铁表面沉积-层Fe-O薄膜以改善纯铁表面的抗腐蚀性,用X射线光电子能谱和X射线衍射研究了薄膜表面成分和物相结构,用极化腐蚀试验研究了薄膜在模拟体液中的腐蚀行为,采用划痕试验法评价了薄膜与基体的结合力。结果表明:采用PⅢ&D法制备Fe-O薄膜,不同氧流量下沉积的薄膜具有不同的物相结构,当氧流量较小时,在纯铁表面形成一层FeO薄膜,随着氧流量的增加,FeO相逐渐转变为Fe3O4相。通过划痕试验和腐蚀试验发现,氧流量为3.4sccm时,形成的FeO薄膜与基体具有较好的结合力,并可对基体产生较好的保护作用,从而大大提高了纯铁表面在模拟体液中的抗腐蚀性能。
The Fe-O films were deposited on pure iron substrates by immersion ion implantation and deposition (Pro&D) to improve the medical performance of stents.The microstmctures and mechanical properties of the films were characterized with X-my diffraction (XRD), glancing angle X-ray diffraction (GAXRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and conventional mechanical probes. The impact of film growth conditions on the films was studied and the corrosion characteristics of the Fe-O films were evaluated with the simulated body fluid (SBF). The results show that the oxygen flow rate strongly affects the phase structures of the Fe-O films and the interfacial adhesion. For instance, Fe- O forms at low oxygen flow rates;whereas at an increased oxygen flow rate,FeO phase changes into Fe304.phase. At an oxygen flow rate of 3.4sccm, Fe-O films with high corrosion resistance and fairly strong interfacial adhesion can be grown on iron substrates. We suggest that Fe-O films coated stainless steel be a potential material for stent fabrication.
