Abstract
Zinc and its alloys provide a scalable alternative to the list of biodegradable metals due to its moderate degradation rates and biocompatible degradation products. However, one of the challenges impeding their clinical applications is the uncontrollable and unstable interfacial reactions between zinc implants and the corrosive media. In this study, we report a facile synthesis of metal–organic framework (MOF) nanocrystal coating with tunable thickness on the high-strength Zn-0.8Li alloy matrix for controlled corrosion. The as-obtained dense and uniform MOF nanocrystals form a strong connection with the zinc matrix via coordination bond so as to maintain the mechanical properties, and meantime provide highly rough surfaces exhibiting tunable wettability. The varied MOF coating thus regulate the interface structure between the zinc matrix and corrosive media to control the degradation behavior. Excellent antibacterial activity and biocompatibility are also achieved because of the unique topology morphologies, surface superhydrophilicity, as well as the dynamic Zn2+ release. This study sheds valuable lights on the design of MOF-functionalized metal implants for practical use and also triggers extensive applications of MOF in biomaterials.
期刊介绍:
Science China Materials (SCM) is a globally peer-reviewed journal that covers all facets of materials science. It is supervised by the Chinese Academy of Sciences and co-sponsored by the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the National Natural Science Foundation of China. The journal is jointly published monthly in both printed and electronic forms by Science China Press and Springer. The aim of SCM is to encourage communication of high-quality, innovative research results at the cutting-edge interface of materials science with chemistry, physics, biology, and engineering. It focuses on breakthroughs from around the world and aims to become a world-leading academic journal for materials science.
