Novel Coatings to Minimize Bacterial Adhesion and Promote Osteoblast Activity for Titanium Implants

Novel Coatings to Minimize Bacterial Adhesion and Promote Osteoblast Activity for Titanium Implants

Titanium nitride (TiN) and silicon carbide (SiC) adhesion properties to biofilm and the proliferation of human osteoblasts were studied. Quaternized titanium nitride (QTiN) was produced by converting the surface nitrogen on TiN to a positive charge through a quaternization process to further improve...
