In addition, the current research mainly focuses on the use of organic anti-infection or bone formation drugs to achieve the treatment of bone infection or bone defect, but in the face of various enzymes in the body and the long period of bone defect repair / bone infection treatment, we wonder whether inorganic metal materials with corresponding functions are more suitable for the application scenario of orthopedics.

[0026] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following advantages:

[0027] 1) The present application uses titanium / titanium alloy, tantalum, silver, etc. as raw materials, and a combination process of ultrahigh voltage anodizing, vacuum heating cleaning, vacuum PVD, heat treatment, etc. to prepare a fusion type tantalum-silver composite double-layer functional coating material based on metal continuous porous network structure. The above raw material selection and process combination are unique to the present application.

[0028] 2) The double-layer functional coating material of the present application has a three-level composite structure: a new type of metal continuous porous network structure is prepared using ultrahigh voltage anodizing and a specially designed electrolyte formula; a secondary tantalum coating structure and a three-level inlaid double-layer composite coating structure are respectively fused into the mesh holes of the first continuous porous metal network structure using PVD twice, i.e. a fusion type tantalum-silver composite double-layer functional coating material based on metal continuous porous network structure is obtained. The first structure is prepared based on the ultrahigh voltage anodizing and the special electrolyte formula in the present application, the metal porous structure is continuous (the continuous structure can provide complete mechanical engagement after the tantalum / silver coating is fused, so that the coating with three-level structure forms an approximately integral structure, thereby ensuring high bonding strength of the coating), the structure is smooth and flat, the internal space is large, providing physical space sites for deposition of the second and third structures, and increasing the contact area and mechanical engagement, which provides the possibility for improving the bonding strength of the second and third structures; the tantalum coating and the silver coating are fused into the metal continuous porous network structure, and the tantalum coating is located in the middle layer and the silver coating is located in the uppermost layer, which matches the time sequence of the silver coating releasing silver ions first for sterilization and the tantalum ions releasing later for promoting osteogenesis.

[0029] 3) The introduction of the tantalum / silver coating in the present application adopts a double vacuum physical vapor deposition (PVD) technology. According to the problem of high surface tension existing in the continuous porous metal network structure, the air in the pore structure can be directly stripped by vacuum physical vapor deposition, so that tantalum and silver can be easily deposited in the pore, realizing the efficient integration of tantalum and silver in the pore. After forming a three-level composite structure of a double-layer functional coating material, further combined with a vacuum heat treatment process, the molecules on the interface between the three metal layers of titanium, tantalum and silver are made to enter each other by heat treatment, the diffusion distance is increased, so that the bonding strength between the coating and the substrate is increased. And it is also clamped by the physical space site provided by the first-level metal continuous porous network structure, the tantalum and silver coating is integrated into the pore structure, increasing the contact area and mechanical occlusion, and the coating bonding strength is energized twice.

[0030] 4) The coating material in the present application has high biocompatibility, high bonding strength, anti-infection function and bone formation function. The stability of the inorganic metal titanium, tantalum and silver raw materials guarantees the high biocompatibility of the coating material; the above-mentioned porous continuous network structure and vacuum heat treatment guarantee the high bonding strength of the coating, which guarantees the long-period stable use of the coating; the silver coating on the outer layer has a high-efficiency broad-spectrum and long-period sterilization effect, and kills the bacteria at the surgical site by continuously releasing silver ions; and the tantalum coating in the middle layer is physically wrapped and blocked by the silver coating, and is released later than silver, which meets the clinical scene of anti-infection first and then bone formation, and the tantalum ion has recognized curative effect on bone formation. The organic synergy of the above-mentioned materials and structures can guarantee the perfect match of the function of the coating material and the clinical demand.

[0031] 5) The coating preparation technology of the present application has platform property, and can introduce coating on the surface of bone implant instruments of any shape, meet the needs of various bone infections and bone defects, and has obvious universality and generalizability.
