[PMID: 38962507 PMCID: PMC11220736 DOI: 10.1021/acsanm.4c02000] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2024] [Revised: 06/03/2024] [Accepted: 06/07/2024] [Indexed: 07/05/2024]
Abstract
Anodization of transition metals, particularly the valve metals (V, W, Ti, Ta, Hf, Nb, and Zr) and their alloys, has emerged as a powerful tool for controlling the morphology, purity, and thickness of oxide nanostructures. The present review is focused on the advances in the synthesis of micro/nanostructures of anodic tantalum oxides (ATO) in inorganic, organic, and mixed inorganic-organic type electrolytes with critically highlighting anodization parameters, such as applied voltage, current, time, and electrolyte temperature. Particularly, the growth of ATO nanostructures in fluoride containing electrolytes and their applications are briefly covered. The details of the current- or voltage-time transient and its relation to the growth of the anodic oxide films are presented systematically. The main discussion revolves around the incorporation of various electrolyte species into the surface of ATO structures and its effects on their physicochemical properties. The latest progress in understanding the growth mechanism of nanoporous/nanotubular ATO structures is outlined. Additionally, the impact of annealing temperature (ranging from 400-1000 °C) and atmosphere on the crystalline structure, morphology, impurity content, and physical properties of the ATOs is briefly described. The common modification methods, such as decorating with other transition metal/metal oxide, heteroatom doping, or generating defects in the ATO structures, are discussed. Besides, the review also covers the most promising applications of these materials in the fields of capacitors, supercapacitors, memristive devices, corrosion protection, photocatalysis, photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting, and biomaterials. Finally, future research directions for designing ATO-based nanomaterials and their utilities are indicated.

Abstract
Tantalum (Ta) is a valuable and rare metal that is extensively used in the production of implant materials and high-performance capacitors. However, a convenient and effective method for the separation of Ta from other compounds has yet to be developed. On the basis of first-principle density functional theory (DFT), we simulated the vibrational spectrum of potassium heptafluorotantalate (K2TaF7). By performing a dynamics analysis of vibrational modes, we assigned peaks in infrared (IR) absorption and Raman scattering spectra to their corresponding vibrations. We focused on the strong IR absorption peaks of Ta-related vibrational modes in K2TaF7 and concluded that three observed IR absorption peaks, at 285, 315, and 530 cm-1, are good candidates. Provided with high power radiation at these three frequencies (at about 8.55, 9.45, and 15.9 THz), the good efficiency of photon-phonon resonance absorption will facilitate Ta separation from a compound.

Abstract
Tantalum is receiving increasing attention in the biomedical field due to its biocompatible nature and superior mechanical properties. However, the bioinert nature of tantalum still poses a challenge and limits its integration into the bone tissue. To address these issues, we fabricated nanotubular (NT), nanocoral (NC), and nanodimple morphologies on tantalum surfaces via anodization. The size of these nanofeatures was engineered to be approximately 30 nm for all anodized samples. Thus, the influence of the anodized nanostructured morphology on the chemical and biological properties of tantalum was evaluated. The NT and NC samples exhibited higher surface roughness, surface energy, and hydrophilicity compared to the nonanodized samples. In addition, the NT samples exhibited the highest corrosion resistance among all of the investigated samples. Biological experiments indicated that NT and NC samples promoted human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cell (hADMSC) spreading and proliferation up to 5 days in vitro. ALP, COL1A1, and OSC gene expressions as well as calcium mineral synthesis were upregulated on the NT and NC samples in the second and third weeks in vitro. These findings highlight the significance of nanostructured feature morphology for anodized tantalum, where the NT morphology was shown to be a potential candidate for orthopedic applications.

Abstract
This paper focuses on the preparation of Zn2+-doped Ta2O5nanorods on porous tantalum using the hydrothermal method. Porous tantalum is widely used in biomedical materials due to its excellent elastic modulus and biological activity. Porous tantalum has an elastic modulus close to that of human bone, and its large specific surface area is conducive to promoting cell adhesion. Zinc is an important component of human bone, which not only has spectral bactericidal properties, but also has no cytotoxicity. The purpose of this study is to provide a theoretical basis for the surface modification of porous tantalum and to determine the best surface modification method. The surface structure of the sample was characterized by x-ray diffractometer, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, and the Zn-doped Ta2O5nanorods are characterized by antibacterial test, MTT test, ICP and other methods. The sample has good antibacterial properties and no cytotoxicity. The results of this study have potential implications for the development of new and improved biomedical materials.

Abstract
After bone defects reach a certain size, the body can no longer repair them. Tantalum, including its porous form, has attracted increasing attention due to good bioactivity, biocompatibility, and biomechanical properties. After a metal material is implanted into the body as a medical intervention, a series of interactions occurs between the material’s surface and the microenvironment. The interaction between cells and the surface of the implant mainly depends on the surface morphology and chemical composition of the implant’s surface. In this context, appropriate modification of the surface of tantalum can guide the biological behavior of cells, promote the potential of materials, and facilitate bone integration. Substantial progress has been made in tantalum surface modification technologies, especially nano-modification technology. This paper systematically reviews the progress in research on tantalum surface modification for the first time, including physicochemical properties, biological performance, and surface modification technologies of tantalum and porous tantalum.

Abstract
Micro-structured coatings with functional properties have been investigated due to a wide range of applications. It is known that micro-structures can play an important role in surface interactions determining the materials’ performance. Amongst the other materials, there has been an increasing interest in tantalum oxide (Ta2O5). This attention is mainly due to its variety of properties: biocompatibility and bioactivity; high dielectric constant; good thermal and chemical stability; excellent corrosion and mechanical resistance. Moreover, there is a wide range of applications in which the properties can be fitted. Furthermore, according to the final application, these properties can be enhanced or tailored through surface micro-structures manipulation. Due to this purpose, over the past decade, Ta surface modification by micro-arc oxidation (MAO) has been investigated mostly for biomedical applications. Therefore, this review focuses on Ta surface functionalization using the MAO technique. A clear understanding of the micro-discharge phenomena and the formation mechanism of a Ta2O5 anodic coating by MAO is supplied. The Ta2O5 coating morphology, topography, chemistry, and structure are explored, establishing their correlation with the MAO parameters. Additionally, an understanding of Ta2O5’s biological, mechanical, and electrochemical properties is provided and reviewed.

Abstract
Porous tantalum (Ta) is a promising biomaterial and has been applied in orthopedics and dentistry for nearly two decades. The high porosity and interconnected pore structure of porous Ta promise fine bone ingrowth and new bone formation within the inner space, which further guarantee rapid osteointegration and bone-implant stability in the long term. Porous Ta has high wettability and surface energy that can facilitate adherence, proliferation and mineralization of osteoblasts. Meanwhile, the low elastic modulus and high friction coefficient of porous Ta allow it to effectively avoid the stress shield effect, minimize marginal bone loss and ensure primary stability. Accordingly, the satisfactory clinical application of porous Ta-based implants or prostheses is mainly derived from its excellent biological and mechanical properties. With the advent of additive manufacturing, personalized porous Ta-based implants or prostheses have shown their clinical value in the treatment of individual patients who need specially designed implants or prosthesis. In addition, many modification methods have been introduced to enhance the bioactivity and antibacterial property of porous Ta with promising in vitro and in vivo research results. In any case, choosing suitable patients is of great importance to guarantee surgical success after porous Ta insertion.
