Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present disclosure relates to a coated component having a surface, wherein at least a portion of the surface of the component is coated with a coating; a system or kit including the coated component; a closed system including the coated component; and a method of coating a component. Background Art
[0002] Pharmaceutical compositions for injection (e.g., vaccines) are usually administered to patients by means of syringes. Therefore, the pharmaceutical composition can be contained in a vial and drawn into the syringe only a few minutes before injection, or alternatively, the pharmaceutical composition is directly loaded into the syringe after production and is contained in the syringe until administration. If the pharmaceutical composition is directly loaded into the syringe after production, the pharmaceutical composition is in direct contact with the inner surface of the syringe for a long time. Therefore, the pharmaceutical composition may interact with the surface of the syringe, or air may diffuse through the wall of the syringe. Therefore, the efficacy of the pharmaceutical composition may be reduced or contaminated by extractables and leachables. In order to reduce the interaction and inhibit the diffusion of air, the surface of the syringe can be coated with a coating. However, these coatings are generally very sensitive to high or low pH values, and if the coating peels off or dissolves, it itself may contaminate the pharmaceutical composition. The inventors recognize these problems, and therefore, the purpose of the present application is to provide a coating element with sufficient barrier properties and improved resistance and a method for producing the coating element. In detail, the purpose of the present disclosure is to provide a coating element, which exhibits one or more of the following: - Improved barrier properties with respect to air (especially oxygen); - Improved pH resistance; - Reduced amount of extractables; - Reduced amount of leachables; - types of leachables reduced; - Reduce delamination; - improved adhesion of coatings or coatings and decorations; and / or - Improved coating slip properties.
[0003] In addition, the object of the present disclosure is to provide an improved method for producing a coated element. In detail, the object of the present disclosure is to provide a method for producing a coated substrate (preferably, according to any embodiment described herein), which exhibits one or more of the following: - Increased application speed; - Reduce costs; - increased production reliability; and / or - Reduced production fluctuations. Summary of the invention
[0004] The claimed subject matter addresses one or more of the above objectives.
[0005] In one aspect, the present disclosure relates to a coated element having a surface, wherein at least a portion of the surface of the element is coated with a coating, wherein the coating comprises, in the following order: - Smoothing layer (SL); - a barrier layer (BL); and - Protective layer (PL),
[0006] The smooth layer satisfies the condition a1 SL ≤[Si2O + ] SL / [SiC3H9 + ] SL ≤a2 SL , where a1 SL is 1.0, where a2 SL 1*10 5 , where [SiC3H9 + ] SL The content of [SiC3H9 in the smoothing layer measured by TOF-SIMS (Time-of-Flight Secondary-Ion-Mass-Spectrometry) + ] ion counts, among which [Si2O + ] SL The [Si2O + ] ion counts, and / or
[0007] Wherein the barrier layer satisfies condition a1 BL ≤[Si2O + ] BL / [SiC3H9 + ] BL ≤a2 BL , where a1 BL is 1, where a2 BL 1*10 5 , where [SiC3H9 + ] BL The [SiC3H9 + ] ion counts, and among them [Si2O + ] BL The [Si2O + ] ion counts, and / or
[0008] The protective layer satisfies condition a1 PL ≤[Si2O + ] PL / [SiC3H9 + ] PL ≤a2 PL , where a1 PL is 1.0, where a2 PL 1*10 10 , where [SiC3H9 + ] PL The protective layer [SiC3H9 + ] ion counts, and among them [Si2O + ] PL is the [Si2O + ] ion counts,
[0009] The coating element optionally has a sliding force of 0.1N to 10.0N and / or a static friction force of 1N to 18N.
[0010] The combination of cluster ion beams with surface-sensitive analytical techniques (such as X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) or secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS)) provides a path to the depth profile of organic materials while retaining molecular information. In contrast to atomic ions, cluster ions do not penetrate deeply into the target material, and therefore, their impact energy is deposited within the first few nanometers of the surface, resulting in high sputtering yields and minimal subsurface damage. This allows the micron-scale distribution of organic materials in industrial and medical related materials to be measured with a depth resolution of around 10 nm (Shard et al., Argon Cluster Ion Beams for Organic Depth Profiling: Results from a VAMAS Interlaboratory Study; Anal. Chem. 84, 2012, 7865-7873).
[0011] The coated elements according to the present disclosure were characterized using cluster ion beam measurements in combination with secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) (see "ToF-SIMS" section in the "Methods" section), which demonstrated the improved layer structure obtained according to the methods described in the present disclosure.
[0012] In another aspect, the present disclosure relates to a coated element having a surface, wherein at least a portion of the surface of the element is coated with a coating, wherein the coating comprises, in the following order: - Smoothing layer (SL); - a barrier layer (BL); and - Protective layer (PL),

[0014] wherein the thickness of the barrier layer is 1 nm or more, and / or
[0015] wherein the protective layer has a sliding force of 0.1N to 10.0N and / or a static friction force of 1N to 18N, and / or
[0016] The coating element has a sliding force of 0.1N to 10.0N and / or a static friction force of 1N to 18N.
[0017] It is advantageous if the coating comprises a smoothing layer (SL), a barrier layer (BL) and a protective layer (PL) because the interaction of the pharmaceutical composition with the surface of the element can be significantly reduced. The smoothing layer (SL) provides an optimal contact and interaction with the (coated) element. The barrier layer (BL) is characterized by being mainly inorganic, which can be provided by a combination of high temperature and oxygen employed during the coating process (e.g. using a PICVD method that generates a plasma). The barrier layer (BL) greatly reduces the oxygen permeability in and across the coating. The protective layer (PL) can be chemically similar to the smoothing layer (SL) and protects the barrier layer (BL).

Preferably, the precursor is HMDSO.
[0317] In one embodiment of the method, the precursor comprises, preferably consists of, the elements Si, C, O and H.
[0318] In one embodiment of the method, with regard to the application of the smoothing layer, barrier layer, protective layer and / or sliding layer, one or more of the following conditions are met: i. wherein the coating process is a plasma pulse chemical vapor deposition (PICVD) process, ii. wherein the irradiation is performed by a microwave generator, preferably, wherein the frequency of the radiation is 300 MHz to 300 GHz, more preferably 600 MHz to 100 GHz, more preferably 800 MHz to 10 GHz, more preferably 900 MHz to 3 GHz, more preferably 2.45 GHz; and / or iii. wherein the input power IP, preferably the input power of the microwave generator, is 100 W to 10000 W, preferably 300 W to 9000 W, more preferably 500 W to 8000 W, more preferably 700 W to 6000 W, more preferably 900 W to 4000 W, more preferably 1100 W to 2000 W; and / or iv. wherein the precursor P comprises hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO), hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS), tetramethylsilane (TMS), trimethylboroxane (TMB), tris(dimethylaminosilyl)-amino-bis(dimethylamino)- At least one of trimethylsilyl) borane (TDADB), tris(trimethylsilyl) borate (TMSB), hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane (HMCTSO), octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (OMCTS), decamethylcyclopentasiloxane (DMCPS), dodecamethylcyclohexasiloxane (DMCHS), diacetoxy-di-tert-butoxysilane (DADBS), tetraethoxysilane (TEOS), tris(trimethylsiloxy)vinylsilane (TTMSVS), vinyltriethoxysilane (VTES) and / or a combination thereof, preferably, the precursor P is HMDSO; and / or In addition to the precursor P, a gas, preferably oxygen, is also fed in.
[0319] It has long been accepted that the frequency of the sustained high-frequency discharge has a considerable influence on the properties of the plasma (Moisan, M., Barbeau, C., Claude, R., Ferreira, CM, Margot, J., Paraszczak, J., Sá, AB, Sauvé, G. and Wertheimer, MR (1991). Radio frequency or microwave plasma reactors? Factors determining the optimum frequency of operation. Journal of Vacuum Science & Technology B: Microelectronics and Nanometer Structures Processing, Measurement, and Phenomena 9(1), 8-25). For a given high-frequency power density, the electron density produced by deposition into the plasma at microwave frequencies is higher than that produced at radio frequencies. Based on their studies, the authors have determined that converting the plasma process from 13.56 MHz to 2450 MHz does not necessarily lead to the maximum possible process intensification and that optimization may require constructing the plasma reactor in a way that allows changing the excitation frequency.
[0320] The latter task of (re)configuring the plasma reactor to allow changing the excitation frequency is by no means trivial and, to the best of the applicant's knowledge, has not been performed so far nor shared as public knowledge.
[0321] Pulsed microwave plasmas with low pulse frequencies (e.g., about 100 Hz) and low duty cycles (D≤0.1) as employed in the present disclosure are advantageous for optical and other functional coatings. In the PICVD process, a dielectric substrate can typically be placed directly on a microwave window while a very dense plasma is formed near the substrate during very short pulses, typically 1 ms to 100 ms in duration, at relatively high pressures on the order of less than about 1 Torr.
[0322] Radjef et al. (Characterizing a Custom-Built Radio Frequency PECVDReactor to Vary the Mechanical Properties of TMDSO Films. Molecules 26, 2021, 5621) studied the comparison between radio frequency (RF) PECVD and microwave (MW) PECVD for the deposition of organosiloxane films based on TMDSO as a precursor, and found that most MW TMDSO films were slightly smoother than RF TMDSO films, with R q As low as 0.4nm. In general, higher concentrations of O2 in the system lead to fragmentation of larger TMDSO molecules. It is speculated that higher concentrations of O2 lead to effective cleavage of the methyl groups, leaving relatively bare O-Si-O backbones, and this fragmentation produces a harder, more "silica-like" film with a cross-linked O-Si-O network.
[0323] The inventors of the present disclosure have determined processes and process conditions that maintain the integrity of the selected precursors to a large extent. The layer structure of the coated element includes a smoothing layer (SL), a barrier layer (BL), a protective layer (PL) and optionally a sliding layer (GL) in the following order. The coated element can be a polymer substrate. Each of the layers is chemically different and is characterized by detecting specific ToF-SIMS species, namely SiC in negative ion mode. - 、C4 - 、C4H3 - 、SiCH3O - and SiO3 - , and C3H5 in positive ion mode + 、SiO + 、SiC2H + 、SiC2H3 + 、Si2O +、SiC3H9 + and CH3 + In addition to the chosen precursor, the exact qualitative and quantitative characteristics depend on the PICVD parameters adopted in each of the four deposition steps (1 to 4) and the sputtering and analysis parameters measured by ToF-SIMS (see Figure 1B and Figure 1C ).
[0324] Without being bound by theory, as part of the PICVD process, all pulse durations PD LAYER [ms] and all pulse pause time PP LAYER The ratio of [ms / ms] is an important parameter for controlling and regulating the deposition of each of the three or four individual layers. This parameter can alternatively be expressed as a "duty cycle" or "power cycle", which is the fraction of a cycle that a signal or system is active. The duty cycle can be expressed as a percentage or a ratio. The cycle is defined as the time it takes for a signal to complete an on and off cycle.
[0325] In an advantageous embodiment of the method, the smoothing layer is applied with all pulse durations PD SL [ms] and all pulse pause time PP SL The ratio [ms / ms] is 0.01 to 0.5, the blocking layer is applied for all pulse durations PD BL [ms] and all pulse pause time PP BL The ratio [ms / ms] of [ms] is 0.01 to 1, preferably 0.1 to 0.8, and / or the protective layer is applied with all pulse durations PD PL [ms] and all pulse pause time PP PL The ratio [ms / ms] of [ms] is 0.001 to 1, preferably 0.01 to 0.5.
[0326] In one embodiment of the method, for applying the smoothing layer, one or more of the following conditions are met: i.

[0364] Methods and definitions
[0365] ToF-SIMS (Time of Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry)
[0366] The measurement method and data evaluation of a specific TOF-SIMS measurement are explained in detail below. According to the following description, ions (e.g., ions [C3H5 + ]、[C4H3 - ]、[SiC2H3 + ] and [SiCH3O - ])'s value.
[0367] Measurement method
[0368] For the measurement, TOF SIMS (TOF.SIMS 5 of Iontof) can be used. If not otherwise specified, TOF-SIMS is measured according to ASTM E 1829 and ASTM E 2695.
[0369] The measurement was started after a vacuum below 1.0 mbar had been established.
[0370] The following parameter settings were used for TOF-SIMS: For analysis: Primary ion: Bi 3+ ; Energy: 30keV; Measuring area: 100 x 100 μm 2 ; Pattern: 128 x 128 random; and Bismuth analysis current: 0.3pA. For sputtering guns (argon cluster source): Sputtering ions: Ar cluster; Energy: 10keV; Sputtering area: 300 x 300 μm 2 ;and Sputtering current of Ar cluster source: 8.5 nA. Additional experimental details: Cycle time: 200μs Analyzer Extractor: 2462V (cation) and 2480V (anion); Analyzer Detector: 9000V; Charge compensation: flooded electron gun; Primary Ion Time of Flight Correction: On; and Gas flooding: 9x 10 -7 mbar.
[0371] A sample of the coated polymer container (e.g. half of the inner coated container cut in two longitudinally) is placed in such a way that the center line of the sputtering gun and the center line of the liquid metal ion gun of the TOF-SIMS hit the coated area of the sample, thereby making the sputtering area cover the entire measurement area, preferably, the center line of the sputtering gun and the center line of the liquid metal ion gun of the TOF-SIMS hit the same point of the coated area of the sample. TOF-SIMS measures cations or anions. In order to obtain both ions, two measurements can be performed, each measurement using a new area of the same sample or a new sample, for example, the first half and the second half of the coated container cut in two longitudinally.
[0372] Determination of layer
[0373] The layer structure of the coated element comprises in the following order a smoothing layer (SL), a barrier layer (BL), a protective layer (PL) and optionally a sliding layer (GL), wherein the coated element has a polymer substrate. Each of the layers is chemically different and is detected by specific ToF-SIMS substances, i.e. by SiC in negative ion mode. - 、C4 - 、C4H3 - 、SiCH3O - and SiO3 - and C3H5 in positive ion mode + 、SiO + 、SiC2H + 、SiC2H3 + 、Si2O + 、SiC3H9 + and CH3 + The exact qualitative and quantitative characteristics also depend on: the PICVD parameters employed during each of the four deposition steps (1 to 4) in addition to the selected precursor; and the sputtering and analysis parameters of the ToF-SIMS measurement. Figure 1B and Figure 1C Characteristic trends of the point-to-point normalized intensity of selected ToF-SIMS species in positive and negative ion modes are shown, respectively.
[0374] Layer boundaries
[0375] The order of layers built up on the polymer substrate is in the following order: smoothing layer (SL), barrier layer (BL), protective layer (PL) and optionally sliding layer (GL). Based on Example 1, and using the sputtering and analytical ToF-SIMS setup described above, the boundaries between the smoothing layer (SL), barrier layer (BL), protective layer (PL) and optionally sliding layer (GL) can be found or established according to one or more of the following criteria: [SiCH3O - ] GL / [SiO3 - ] GL >1.0; [SiCH3O - ] BL / [SiO3 - ] BL <1.0; [SiC3H9 + ] GL / [SiO + ] GL >1.1; [SiC3H9 + ] PL / [SiO + ] PL <1.0; [SiO + ] BL / [SiC2H + ] BL >1.1; [SiO + ] GL / [SiC2H + ] GL <1.1; [SiO + ] PL / [SiC2H + ] PL <1.1; and [SiO + ] SL / [SiC2H + ] SL <1.1.
[0376] Once on the polymer substrate, i.e. after sputtering away all smoothing layers (SL), barrier layers (BL), protective layers (PL) and optionally sliding layers (GL), C3H5 + and C4H3 - and C4 -Became the dominant ToF-SIMS species in both positive and negative ion modes, with a site-to-site normalization (intensity) >> 1.0 compared to all Si-containing ToF-SIMS species.
[0377] The thickness of the coating and its layers
[0378] The thickness of the coating and each layer (i.e., smoothing layer, barrier layer, protective layer and sliding layer) was estimated by TEM (transmission electron microscopy). A scanning transmission electron microscope (SETM; Hitachi HF5000) was used at an accelerating voltage of 200 kV, a capture resolution of 1024 x 1024 and a collection time of 20 seconds. Other instrument settings were: column mode operation (HR), DF mode (ZCM), BF mode (WAM) and STEM condenser aperture #2.
[0379] First, the sample was prepared by sputtering a 50 nm metallic titanium layer using a cold magnetron to establish conductivity and surface protection. Subsequent steps were performed using an Auriga 40 SEM / FIB cross beam: SEM-induced carbon deposition using an organic precursor (to prevent Ga ions), FIB-induced Pt deposition using an organic precursor (to protect the surface during thin-section preparation), thin sections were cut at 30 kV Ga FIB, the sample was transferred to a copper grid, ion thinned with 30 kV Ga, and finally ion thinned with 2 kV Ga. This typically resulted in a final thin section width of 20 μm and a final thickness of the titanium layer of about 50 nm.
[0380] Roughness of the uncoated surface of the component
[0381] The surface roughness depth SRz has been determined using a white light interferometer (WLI) on the uncoated inner surface of the element and the uncoated outer surface of the element based on and according to ISO 25178-2:2012. Using Zygo's WLI (NexView type), and before any subsequent calculations, a field of view of 400μm x 400μm is measured and the curvature of the element is corrected. In order to obtain the SRz parameter, the surface area is analyzed by fitting the minimum circumscribed rectangle and applying a 5x 5 sampling grid, totaling 25 sampling areas. All sampling areas together constitute the evaluation area. However, Rz refers to the roughness obtained from a single line scan (across 5 points), and SRz reflects the average radial peak-to-valley area roughness on the surface, that is, the average of the largest half of many individual Rz results is determined by dividing the regional data array 360 degrees around its center. The Rz results are classified by amplitude, and SRz is calculated by averaging the largest 50% of the Rz values. The actual pixel-to-pixel path for each slice is determined using a line generation algorithm, and there is no interpolation between pixels. Therefore, SRz covers the entire array and is position-independent due to its radial generation.
[0382] Depending on the type of container, several measurements are taken at a well-defined number of containers and a well-defined number of measuring locations and averaged.
[0383] For the syringe (COC, 1 ml length), 6 different positions of 10 containers were measured, resulting in a SRz of 132 nm ± 109 nm (mean ± standard deviation). These 6 different positions were measured at 10 mm, 25 mm and 40 mm from the die and at a relative position of 180° relative to the central axis of the syringe.
[0384] For small bottles (COP, 2 ml), 3 different positions of 10 containers were measured, resulting in a SRz of 147 nm ± 118 nm (mean ± standard deviation). The 3 different positions were measured at a bottle height of 10 mm and at an angular position of 120° relative to the central axis of the bottle.
[0385] Sliding force
[0386] The static and sliding friction coefficients of the sliding layer were determined by pressing a V9361 FM457 / 0FLNC2 057 stopper (outer diameter 6.9±0.1 mm) from Datwyler Pharma Packaging into the corresponding syringe at a speed of 100 mm / min. The force required for this pressing action was recorded.
[0387] The coefficients of static friction and sliding friction are determined by moving a suitable stopper through the hollow body at a constant speed of 100 mm / min immediately after it has been inserted into the hollow body and measuring the force required as a function of the insertion depth. A typical static / sliding friction diagram shows a linear increase in force when the stopper starts to move. As soon as the static friction force is overcome, the stopper starts to move and the stopper slides through the cylinder, which requires a relatively constant thrust in the case of a good sliding layer. There is usually a maximum in the static / sliding friction diagram just before the stopper starts to slide, which represents the coefficient of static friction. The relatively constant force during the sliding movement represents the coefficient of sliding friction. Static / sliding friction diagrams are usually measured with stoppers, which are also used as stoppers for primary pharmaceutical packaging and which can achieve corresponding compactness without much effort.
[0388] Static friction (breaking force)
[0389] Static friction is understood to be the static friction measured on the surface of a coated or uncoated component.
[0390] Static friction was measured in a 1 ml long COC syringe with a siliconized stopper from Datwyler Pharma 257 / 2ISAF2. Static friction was measured as the maximum force along the initial path of 4 mm. After the initial path, the average sliding force was obtained by monitoring the additional 30 mm path. The stopper was measured under dry conditions after being stored in the syringe for 24 hours at a temperature of 20°C. Additional test parameters were: 100 N load cell, 100 mm / min test speed, non-threaded plunger rod.
[0391] Example
[0392] Embodiment 1 (embodiment of the present invention)
[0393] A resin syringe (1 ml long COC) was provided and then coated in four steps without vacuum break using the apparatus described in WO 2007 / 022976A2 (Fig. 1). The plasma was driven by microwave irradiation at a frequency of 2.45 GHz. The plasma reaction chamber was mainly inside the syringe and the outside of the syringe was mainly ambient conditions. Before starting film deposition, the reaction chamber was evacuated until a gas pressure of 0.05 mbar was reached.
[0394] Four separate and consecutive coating steps are applied:
[0395] In the first step, a gas flow of 20 sccm HMDSO was adjusted at a pressure of 0.66 mbar. Subsequently, the plasma was ignited in pulse mode with an input power of 1460 W, with a pulse duration of 0.5 ms and a pulse pause time of 10 ms, which is equivalent to a duty cycle of 4.8%. The plasma treatment was carried out for 5 seconds.
[0396] In the second step, a gas mixture of 0.6 sccm HMDSO and 39.4 sccm oxygen was adjusted at a pressure of 0.36 mbar. Subsequently, the plasma was ignited in pulse mode with an input power of 1180 W, with a pulse duration of 2 ms and a pulse pause time of 5 ms, which is equivalent to a duty cycle of 28.6%. The plasma treatment was carried out for 9 seconds.
[0397] In the third step, a gas mixture of 14 sccm HMDSO and 6 sccm oxygen was adjusted at a pressure of 0.66 mbar. Subsequently, the plasma was ignited with an input power of 1420 W in pulse mode with a pulse duration of 0.5 ms and a pulse pause time of 10 ms, which is equivalent to a duty cycle of 4.8%. The plasma treatment was carried out for 1 second.
[0398] In the fourth step, a gas flow of 10 sccm HMDSO was adjusted at a pressure of 0.84 mbar. Subsequently, the plasma was ignited in pulse mode with an input power of 980 W, with a pulse duration of 0.04 ms and a pulse pause time of 1 ms. The plasma treatment was carried out for 9 seconds. Finally, the reaction chamber was evacuated with nitrogen until atmospheric pressure was reached.
[0399] Embodiment 2 (embodiment of the present invention)
[0400] A resin syringe (1 ml long COC) is provided and, except that the fourth coating step is omitted, coating is carried out according to Example 1. Additional coating is carried out by adopting the liquid coating according to Example 2 of EP 3636303 A1. Liquid coating is prepared by loading 80 g of vinyl functionalized polydimethylsiloxane into a reaction vessel and mixing with 640 g of hexamethyldisiloxane. Under constant stirring at 1000 rpm, 2 g of methylhydrogensiloxane / dimethylsiloxane copolymer, 48 g of liquid polydimethylsiloxane, 1.1 g of 1,1,3,3-tetramethyl-1,3-divinyldisiloxane platinum complex and 0.1 g of butynol as an inhibitor are added to this reaction mixture. The preparation can be used after stirring for 60 s.
[0401] The formulation was applied to the inside of the plastic hollow body by a wiping process and cured by heating to 250° C. for 3.5 seconds. A 1-ml COC syringe of standard size "1-ml long" with an inner diameter of 6.5 mm was used as a substrate for depositing the sliding layer.
[0402] Subsequently, the static friction coefficient and the sliding friction coefficient of the cured sliding layer were determined. This involved pressing a V9361 FM457 / 0FLNC2 057 stopper of Datwyler Pharma Packaging with an outer diameter of 6.9±0.1 mm into a syringe at a speed of 100 mm / min. The force required for this was recorded. Both the static friction coefficient and the sliding friction coefficient were less than 10 N.
