The in vitro simulated body fluid (SBF) assay confirms the deposition of a hydroxyapatite layer on 81S and 85S bio-glasses, verified by XRD, FTIR and HRSEM analyses. However, a notable difference emerges in the pH study, where a slower degradation rate has been observed in the case of 85S compared to that of 81S bio-glass, which can be attributed to the presence of high silica content. In the MTT assay, 81S bio-glass exhibits significantly higher cell viability of 130%, surpassing that of 85S bio-glass, where 114% of cell viability is detected. While both bio-glasses exhibit antibacterial properties, 81S shows a higher efficacy in inhibiting the growth of E. coli by 47% and S. aureus by 51%, whereas 85S demonstrates comparatively lower inhibition, restraining E. coli by 16% and S. aureus by 35%. The substantial difference in antibacterial activity can be attributed to a slower dissolution rate of 85S bio-glass, which results in a very small change in pH of the surrounding environment. In conclusion, 81S bio-glass demonstrates superior bioactivity, cell proliferation and antimicrobial efficacy, making it a promising candidate for biomedical applications.</div>","PeriodicalId":502,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of Materials Science","volume":"47 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142208486","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite the energetic favourability of room-temperature synthesis of ZrNx, only a handful attempts have been made to understand the low-temperature synthesis protocols. In the present work, we synthesized a series of Zr–N thin films by varying partial N2 gas flow (RN2) at room temperature (300 K). The structural and compositional characteristics of resulting Zr–N films were studied. The investigation combines X-ray reflectivity (XRR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) measurements, which includes X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES), extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) and variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometer (VASE). XRR results reveal the effects of varying RN2 on deposition rate, providing insights into the formation of ZrN phase. XRD patterns reveal the structural evolution from the hcp Zr to fcc ZrN phase. Further, structural parameters, including lattice parameter and crystallite size are systematically examined, revealing high-quality nature of the films, with optimal results observed in RN2 = 5–10% samples. XAFS measurements, particularly XANES of N and Zr K-edges, provide insights into the local environment, showing a centrosymmetric structure with octahedral symmetry within the ZrN films. Shifting of pre-edge features in the XANES spectra suggests variations in the oxidation state, implying a complex interplay between Zr and N atoms within the films. Emphasizing the importance of EXAFS, this study showcases its reliability for quantitative analyses. The technique unravels atomic coordination and bond lengths within the Zr–N films, which is crucial for a comprehensive understanding of the film’s structural characteristics.

OTO-coating depicted a water contact angle (WCA) of 121°, revealing its hydrophobic nature, with further affirmation from X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Durability of the TO-coating was explored using the scratch hardness (Hs) test at different loading conditions (5, 10 and 15 N). Biofouling study was conducted by culturing blue-green algae (BGA, Phormidium sp.) in an in-house laboratory setup for 40 days, using seawater (collected from the Arabian Sea, Karnataka). The SS, TO- and OTO-coatings were immersed for 14 days in a controlled sea-water environment in the laboratory with the presence of BGA.
