Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of material surface treatment, and particularly relates to a calcium-based phosphate sealing treatment method for a micro-arc oxidation coating of a biomedical magnesium alloy. Background Art
[0002] As an emerging biodegradable implant material, biomedical magnesium alloy has mechanical properties matching those of human bone, excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability. However, its rapid degradation problem in the physiological environment has become a major challenge in clinical applications. This rapid degradation makes it unable to provide stable support for tissue repair, thus affecting the implantation effect. To solve this problem, it is particularly important to perform surface treatment on the magnesium alloy. The surface treatment aims to improve the corrosion resistance, wear resistance and biocompatibility of the magnesium alloy, so as to extend its service life and ensure its safety and effectiveness in the body. Among many surface treatment technologies, micro-arc oxidation has attracted much attention due to its unique advantages.
[0003] The micro-arc oxidation technology uses the high temperature and high pressure generated by arc discharge to directly form an oxide ceramic coating on the surface of the magnesium alloy that is firmly bonded to the substrate. This coating can not only effectively resist corrosion media, but also has high hardness and wear resistance, protecting the stability of the implant in the body. In addition, the micro-arc oxidation treatment process is simple, efficient, and has little environmental pollution, meeting the concept of green and sustainable development. However, the micro-arc oxidation coating often has a porous structure, making the coating vulnerable to erosion in specific environments such as humid and corrosive media, and the long-term corrosion resistance of the coating is insufficient, thus unable to meet the degradation performance requirements of biomedical magnesium alloys.
[0004] Sealing the micro-arc oxidation coating is an effective method to improve the long-term corrosion resistance of the coating. Most of the sealing solutions used in current sealing treatment methods are rare-earth-based solutions or use rare-earth oxide particles for sealing. However, the content of rare-earth elements in the human body is very small (less than 1 mg), and the effects of different rare-earth elements on the human body have not been fully understood. In recent years, some phosphate solutions have also been used for sealing the micro-arc oxidation coating of magnesium alloys, but in these sealing treatment methods, the sealing solution only relies on the established cation quantity in the solution and the magnesium ions dissolved from the magnesium alloy substrate to achieve the deposition and sealing of the corresponding phosphate, and the deposition and sealing effects are not good. Summary of the Invention
[0005] Aiming at the deficiencies of the above-mentioned existing technologies, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a calcium-based phosphate sealing treatment method for a micro-arc oxidation coating of biomedical magnesium alloy. First, the present invention uses micro-arc oxidation treatment to obtain a coating with good corrosion resistance on the magnesium alloy, and then performs a sealing treatment to fill the coating pores with the sealing solution. Through the phosphate deposition reaction, the deposited substances fill the pores and cracks in the micro-arc oxidation coating and are deposited on the surface of the micro-arc oxidation coating, improving the density of the micro-arc oxidation coating, enhancing the long-term degradation performance of the coating, and increasing the calcium element content in the solution through the complexing agent in the sealing solution to improve the sealing effect. At the same time, due to the advantages of calcium element such as promoting osteogenesis, using calcium-based phosphate for sealing treatment can further improve the biocompatibility of the coating.

[0011] Among them, the sealing solution is a mixed aqueous solution of soluble calcium salt, NH4H2PO4, NaNO3 and C 10 H 14 N2Na2O8·2H2O.
[0012] First, the present invention uses micro-arc oxidation treatment to obtain a coating with good corrosion resistance on the magnesium alloy, and then performs a sealing treatment to fill the coating pores with the sealing solution. Through the phosphate deposition reaction, the deposited substances fill the pores and cracks in the micro-arc oxidation coating and are deposited on the surface of the micro-arc oxidation coating, improving the density of the micro-arc oxidation coating, enhancing the long-term degradation performance of the coating, and increasing the calcium element content in the solution through the Ca(NO3)2·4H2O complexing agent in the sealing solution to improve the sealing effect. At the same time, due to the advantages of calcium element such as promoting osteogenesis, using calcium-based phosphate for sealing treatment can further improve the biocompatibility of the coating.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the soluble calcium salt is Ca(NO3)2·4H2O or CaCl2. In the sealing solution, the dosage ratio of Ca(NO3)2·4H2O, NH4H2PO4, NaNO3, C 10 H 14 N2Na2O8·2H2O to water is 30 g to 40 g: 30 g to 40 g: 2 g to 4 g: 2 g to 5 g: 1 L.
[0014] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the sealing treatment temperature is 60 °C to 70 °C.
[0015] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, before the sealing treatment, 10% H3PO4 is used to adjust the pH value of the sealing solution to 3 to 4.
[0016] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the soaking time of the micro-arc oxidation treatment coating in the sealing solution is 10 min to 30 min.
[0017] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the electrolyte is an aqueous solution mixture of Na2SiO3·9H2O, KF·2H2O, and NaOH.
[0018] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in the electrolyte, the dosage ratio of Na2SiO3·9H2O, KF·2H2O, NaOH to water is 20 g to 25 g: 7 g to 8 g: 8 g to 10 g: 1 L.
[0019] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the micro-arc oxidation treatment process parameters are: voltage 0 to 450 V, current density 3 A / cm 2 ~5 A / cm 2 , pulse frequency 100 Hz to 500 Hz, duty cycle -30% to 30%.
[0020] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the micro-arc oxidation treatment time is 30 min to 35 min.
[0021] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the magnesium alloy is a Mg-0.45Zn-0.45Ca alloy.
[0022] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the method of successively grinding the specimen after cutting is to grind with 240#, 600#, 1000#, and 2000# SiC sandpapers in sequence.
[0023] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0024] 1. The calcium-based phosphate sealing treatment method of the present invention first uses micro-arc oxidation treatment to prepare a micro-arc oxidation coating, and then performs a sealing treatment on the micro-arc oxidation coating to fill the coating pores with a sealing solution. Through a phosphate deposition reaction, the deposited substances fill the pores and cracks in the micro-arc oxidation coating and are deposited on the surface of the micro-arc oxidation coating, improving the density of the micro-arc oxidation coating, enhancing the long-term degradation performance of the coating, and increasing the calcium element content in the solution through the soluble calcium salt complexing agent in the sealing solution to improve the sealing effect. At the same time, since calcium has advantages such as promoting osteogenesis, using calcium-based phosphate for sealing treatment can further improve the biocompatibility of the coating.
[0025] 2. The present invention first performs micro-arc oxidation treatment to obtain a micro-arc oxidation coating with good corrosion resistance, and then adopts a new calcium-based phosphate sealing process to finally form a wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant composite coating on the surface. After the magnesium alloy is treated by micro-arc oxidation, the micro-arc oxidation coating formed on its surface often has defects such as cracks and pores, which is not conducive to the long-term corrosion resistance of the coating. In order to further eliminate the influence of these defects in the coating, a new calcium-based phosphate sealing treatment technology is adopted, which can not only deposit phosphates in the coating defects to improve the coating density and significantly enhance the corrosion resistance of the coating, but also improve the biocompatibility of the coating by introducing calcium elements.

[0033] Combined with the embodiments of the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the preferred embodiments and the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0035] In view of the problem that in the traditional sealing treatment method of magnesium alloy, the sealing solution only relies on the established cation quantity in the solution and the magnesium ions dissolved from the magnesium alloy matrix to achieve the deposition and sealing of the corresponding phosphate, and the deposition and sealing effects are not good, the present invention proposes a micro-arc oxidation-calcium-based phosphate sealing treatment method for the surface of magnesium alloy. Taking the magnesium alloy sample as the anode and the graphite plate as the cathode, they are placed in the electrolyte for micro-arc oxidation treatment to obtain a micro-arc oxidation coating; the micro-arc oxidation coating is sealed in a sealing solution containing soluble calcium salt, NH4H2PO4, NaNO3, C 10 H 14 N2Na2O8·2H2O to obtain a micro-arc oxidation-calcium-based phosphate sealing treatment coating on the surface of the magnesium alloy. Among them, in the sealing solution, the dosage ratio of soluble calcium salt, NH4H2PO4, NaNO3, C 10 H 14 N2Na2O8·2H2O to water is 30-40g:30-40g:2-4g:2-5g:1L; the results show that the pores of the micro-arc oxidation film after calcium-based phosphate sealing are significantly reduced. The immersion experiment after soaking in simulated body fluid for 90 days proves that the corrosion resistance of the samples after phosphate sealing treatment is significantly better, indicating that the present invention obtains a coating with good corrosion resistance on the surface of the magnesium alloy through micro-arc oxidation treatment, retains the good corrosion resistance of the surface coating of the alloy after micro-arc oxidation treatment, enables the sealing solution to fill the pores of the coating while phosphate deposition occurs, thereby filling the pores in the coating. This method can improve the densification of the micro-arc oxidation coating of magnesium alloy and greatly extend the time for the coating to effectively protect the magnesium alloy matrix, solve the problem of pores existing on the surface of the coating formed after micro-arc oxidation, and greatly extend the service life.

Among them, (a) is Comparative Example 1 and (b) is Example 1, as follows Figure 7 As shown, the corrosion resistance of the samples subjected to calcium-based phosphate sealing treatment is significantly better.
[0079] In summary, the present invention first performs micro-arc oxidation treatment to obtain a coating with good corrosion resistance, and then adopts a new calcium-based phosphate sealing process to finally form a wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant coating on the surface. After the magnesium alloy is subjected to micro-arc oxidation treatment, the micro-arc oxidation coating formed on its surface maintains excellent corrosion resistance. In order to further eliminate the problem of pores existing on this layer of film, a phosphate sealing treatment technology is adopted, which not only successfully fills the micropores on the surface of the micro-arc oxidation coating and significantly enhances the corrosion resistance of the coating.
