[PMID: 38434039 PMCID: PMC10906185 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e24348] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2023] [Revised: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 03/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Magnesium and its alloys are considered excellent materials for biodegradable implants because of their good biocompatibility and biodegradability as well as their mechanical properties. However, the rapid degradation rate severely limits their clinical applications. Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO), also known as micro-arc oxidation (MAO), is an effective surface modification technique. However, there are many pores and cracks on the coating surface under conventional PEO process. The corrosive products tend to penetrate deeply into the substrate, reducing its corrosion resistance and the biocompatibility, which makes PEO-coated Mg difficult to meet the long-term needs of in vivo implants. Hence, it is necessary to modify the PEO coating. This review discusses the formation mechanism and the influential parameters of PEO coatings on Mg. This is followed by a review of the latest research of the pretreatment and typical amelioration of PEO coating on biodegradable Mg alloys in the past 5 years, including calcium phosphate (Ca-P) coating, layered double hydroxide (LDH)-PEO coating, ZrO2 incorporated-PEO coating, antibacterial ingredients-PEO coating, drug-PEO coating, polymer-PEO composite coating, Plasma electrolytic fluorination (PEF) coating and self-healing coating. Meanwhile, the improvements of morphology, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, biocompatibility, antibacterial abilities, and drug loading abilities and the preparation methods of the modified PEO coatings are deeply discussed as well. Finally, the challenges and prospects of PEO coatings are discussed in detail for the purpose of promoting the clinical application of biodegradable Mg alloys.

MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 16:5669.

Abstract
Recently, Mg-Zn/hydroxyapatite (HA) composites have attracted much attention as potential candidates for use in bone implants. In this paper, the MgZn/HA composites were prepared using powder metallurgy (PM) and the merging mechanism of MgZn and HA particles was investigated by adjusting the weight ratio of the HA powder. The evolution of the HA distribution in the matrix was examined using SEM and micro-CT images. Afterward, the mechanical properties and biocompatibility of the composites were discussed in detail. The results revealed that the mechanical properties and biocompatibility of the Mg-Zn/HA composites were significantly affected by the HA content. Composites with a low HA content showed increased porosity, improved mechanical strength, and enhanced corrosion resistance after ball milling and cold pressing. These results underscore the importance of optimizing the HA content in Mg-Zn/HA composites for bone implants. Based on our findings, PM Mg-Zn/HA composites with a moderate HA content demonstrate the most promising characteristics as bone implants. The insights gained from this work contribute to the advancement of bone implant materials and hold great potential for enhancing orthopedic surgery outcomes.

In Vivo Degradation Behavior of Magnesium Alloy for Bone Implants with Improving Biological Activity, Mechanical Properties, and Corrosion Resistance. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24021602.

Abstract
This study aimed to establish a surface modification technology for ZK60 magnesium alloy implants that can degrade uniformly over time and promote bone healing. It proposes a special micro-arc oxidation (MAO) treatment on ZK60 alloy that enables the composite electrolytes to create a coating with better corrosion resistance and solve the problems of uneven and excessive degradation. A magnesium alloy bone screw made in this way was able to promote the bone healing reaction after implantation in rabbits. Additionally, it was found that the MAO-treated samples could be sustained in simulated body-fluid solution, exhibiting excellent corrosion resistance and electrochemical stability. The Ca ions deposited in the MAO coating were not cytotoxic and were beneficial in enhancing bone healing after implantation.

MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2021; 131:112491. [PMID: 34857277 DOI: 10.1016/j.msec.2021.112491] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/23/2020] [Revised: 10/07/2021] [Accepted: 10/10/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
Calcium phosphate coating is an attractive surface modification strategy for magnesium alloys, since it can increase their corrosion resistance and endow them with osteogenic function simultaneously. Herein, a calcium metaphosphate (CMP) coating was fabricated on magnesium alloy by using sol-gel approach assisted with micro-arc oxidation pre-treatment. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the micro-pores and cracks in micro-arc oxidation inner layer generated during the pre-treatment process were sealed by the grainy sol-gel outer layer. Energy dispersive spectrometry and X-ray diffraction results demonstrated the identity of the coating as CMP. The cross-cut test showed that the adhesion of CMP coating was strong. Applying bare magnesium alloy substrate as a control, the CMP coating surface was rougher and more hydrophilic. The potentiodynamic polarization test demonstrated that the corrosion resistance was significantly improved by using CMP coating. Hydrogen evolution in immersion test further confirmed that the degradation rate was decelerated within 14 days. Moreover, CMP coating facilitated the adhesion speed, spreading area, and focal adhesion formation of bone marrow stem cells. The number of cells in the active proliferating state and proliferated cells present on the CMP coating also increased. Additionally, CMP coating upregulated alkaline phosphatase activity and osteogenic gene expression in cells. In summary, the micro-arc oxidation assisted sol-gel CMP coatings increased the corrosion resistance and promoted the interfacial cell behavior for magnesium alloy implants, which might inform the further development of surface modifications on magnesium alloys for bone related applications.
