Nanostructured ceramics for biomedical implants

Recent progress in the synthesis, characterization, and biological compatibility of nanostructured ceramics for biomedical implants is reviewed. A major goal is to develop ceramic coating technology that can reduce the friction and wear in mating total joint replacement components, thus contributing to their significantly improved function and longer life span. Particular attention is focused on the enhancement of mechanical properties such as hardness, toughness, and friction coefficient and on the bioactivity as they pertain to the nanostructure of the material. The development of three nanostructured implant coatings is discussed: diamond, hydroxyapatite, and functionally graded metalloceramics based on the Cr-Ti-N ternary system. Nanostructured diamond produced by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) techniques and composed of nano-size diamond grains have particular promise because of the combination of ultrahigh hardness, improved toughness over conventional microcrystalline diamond, low friction, and good adhesion to titanium alloys. Nanostructured processing applied to hydroxyapatite coatings is used to achieve the desired mechanical characteristics and enhanced surface reactivity and has been found to increase osteoblast adhesion, proliferation, and mineralization. Finally, nanostructured metalloceramic coatings provide continuous variation from a nanocrystalline metallic bond at the interface to the hard ceramic bond on the surface and have the ability to overcome adhesion problems associated with ceramic hard coatings on metallic substrates.     

About the Method of Thermoreactive Electrospark Surface Strengthening

The method of Thermoreactive Electrospark Surface Strengthening (TRESS) is presented in this work. Thus the process of coating formation becomes a less energy consuming one as compared to the basic technology of the electrospark alloying. The additional heat of the chemical reaction of the synthesis final products formation on the substrate contribute to the increase of thickness and continuity of the coating, to the diminution of the inner tension due to the smoother concentration gradients through the coating thickness. The opportunities of TRESS method are exposed with the example of the FGM wear- and heat-resistant coating formation on the base of NiAl, TiAl. FGM diamond containing coatings production by the said method is presented. Optimal conditions and technological parameters for diamond containing coatings deposition is found. The masstransfer kinetics, the coating structure and properties were studied.     

Deposition of diamond coating on pure titanium using micro-wave plasma assisted chemical vapor deposition

The nucleation and growth of diamond coatings on pure Ti substrate were investigated using microwave plasma assisted chemical vapor deposition (MW-PACVD) method. The effects of hydrogen plasma, plasma power, gas pressure and gas ratio of CH₄ and H₂ on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the deposited diamond coatings were evaluated. Results indicated that the nucleation and growth of diamond crystals on Ti substrate could be separated into different stages: (1) surface etching by hydrogen plasma and the formation of hydride; (2) competition between the formation of carbide, diffusion of carbon atoms and diamond nucleation; (3) growth of diamond crystals and coatings on TiC layer. During the deposition of diamond coatings, hydrogen diffused into Ti substrate forming titanium hydride and led to a profound microstructure change and a severe loss in impact strength. Results also showed that pre-etching of titanium substrate with hydrogen plasma for a short time significantly increased the nuclei density of diamond crystals. Plasma power had a significant effect on the surface morphology and the mechanical properties of the deposited diamond coatings. The effects of gas pressure and gas ratio of CH₄ and H₂ on the nucleation, growth and properties of diamond coatings were also studied. A higher ratio of CH₄ during deposition increased the nuclei density of diamond crystals but resulted in a poor and cauliflower coating morphology. A lower ratio of CH₄ in the gas mixture produced a high quality diamond crystals, however, the nuclei density and the growth rate decreased dramatically.

Preparation of high thermal conductivity copper–diamond composites using molybdenum carbide-coated diamond particles

Molybdenum carbide (Mo₂C) coatings on diamond particles were proposed to improve the interfacial bonding between diamond particles and copper. The Mo₂C-coated diamond particles were prepared by molten salts method and the copper–diamond composites were obtained by vacuum pressure infiltration of Mo₂C-coated diamond particles with pure copper. The structures of the coatings and composites were investigated using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The results indicated that the Mo₂C coatings effectively improved the wettability between diamond particles and copper matrix, and Mo₂C intermediate layers were proved to decrease the interfacial thermal resistance of composites. The thermal conductivity of the composite reached 608 Wm^?1 K^?1 with 65 vol.% Mo₂C-coated diamond, which was much higher than that with uncoated diamond. The greatly enhanced thermal conductivity is ascribed to the 1-μm-thick Mo₂C coatings. Mo₂C coatings on diamond particles are proved to be an effective way to enhance the thermal conductivities of copper–diamond composites.     

Diamond Materials for Electromagnetic Railguns

The use of diamond film insulator in electromagnetic railguns is currently being seriously considered since the state of the art in synthetic: diamond exceeds the requirements of electromagnetic railguns. The reasons for not using diamond, however, include the major difficulty in producing diamond insulators in the required shape and size that can survive the harsh railgun environment. This paper reviews railgun operation dynamics and potential materials including diamond for high performance of railguns. It further reviews the present status of scientific, technological and commercial developments; of diamond coatings. Alternate coatings and the properties that make them amenable for railgun applications are also discussed.     

MACHINING OF THERMALLY SPRAYED WC-Co COATINGS

This paper reports the research results obtained from machining of thermally sprayed WC-Co coatings. WC-Co coatings are used in marine applications. The machined coatings were obtained by using two thermal spraying processes: arc spraying and high-velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) spraying. Different techniques were tried to optimize the surface finishing of the thermally sprayed coatings based on surface finish and time required. The machining processes tried for WC-Co coatings were diamond grinding, cubic boron nitride (CBN) grinding, diamond turning, and diamond polishing. Diamond turning had the advantage of speed, however, the surface finish was not as good as that with fine grinding. Polishing should have given the best surface finish, however, this process was slow. It is suggested to reduce the machining time, first by rough grinding or diamond turning to near the final dimensions, and then by fine grinding or polishing to get the required surface finish and dimensions.     

Residual stress, Young''s modulus and fracture stress of hot flame deposited diamond

Chemical vapour deposition (CVD) diamond coatings deposited on various substrates usually contain residual stresses. Since the residual stress affects the adhesion of the coating to the substrate, as well as the performance of the coating/substrate composite in many technical applications it is of importance to study the magnitude of these stresses.

In the present study the hot flame method was used to deposit diamond coatings on cemented carbide inserts by scanning the surface with a nine flame nozzle. By varying the oxygen to acetylene flow ratio and the deposition time coatings of different qualities and thicknesses were obtained. The residual strain/stress of the coatings was measured by three different methods: X-ray diffraction using the sin² (Ψ) method, Raman spectroscopy and disc deflection measurements. To extract the residual stress from the strain data the Young's modulus was obtained from bending tests of diamond cantilever beams manufactured from free standing diamond films. The latter technique was also used to determine the fracture stress of the diamond films.

All deposited coatings displayed a residual compressive strain/stress state. The residual strain in the diamond coatings did not vary with coating thickness (1.5 μm to 20 μm) but was found to increase from −1.8 × 10⁻³ to −2.2 × 10⁻³ with decreasing diamond quality. The compressive residual stress was found to decrease from −2 GPa to −1.3 GPa with decreasing diamond quality. This is mainly due to a decrease in Young's modulus (from 1.1 TPa to 0.6 TPa) with decreasing diamond quality. Also the fracture stress was found to decrease (from 1.8 GPa to 0.8 GPa) with decreasing diamond quality. The three methods used for measuring the stress state in the coatings, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy and deflection measurement, all give the same result. The deflection technique has the advantage that no information about the elastic properties of the coating is needed, whereas Raman spectroscopy has the best lateral resolution (≈5 μm) and is the fastest method (≈5 min).     

A comparative study of the mechanical strength of chemical vapor-deposited diamond and physical vapor-deposited hard coatings

Four mechanical parameters of physical vapor-deposited (PVD) hard coatings were obtained, which were the residual strain, Young's modulus, film toughness, and interface toughness, concerning titanium aluminum nitride (TiAlN) and titanium nitride (TiN) coatings deposited on WC-Co substrates. The results were quantitatively compared with the author's previous trials for the case of chemical vapor-deposited (CVD) diamond coatings. Due to the significant difference in the mechanical properties between PVD hard coatings and CVD diamond coatings, it was necessary to develop new experimental techniques, which could properly evaluate those parameters for the case of PVD hard coatings. As a conclusion, film toughness of PVD hard coatings was surprisingly brittle. It was an order of magnitude smaller than that of CVD diamond coatings. In contrast, no significant difference was found in interface toughness between these different kinds of coatings. Concerning the residual strain, TiN had far larger level than the other two. These differences in mechanical properties were further discussed in relation to the difference in their wear behavior.
