Abstract
Ti6Al4V is often used in the manufacture of biomedical equipment due to its excellent properties such as light weight, high strength and good corrosion resistance in the physiological environment. Therefore, it is very important to form a non-toxic antibacterial surface on Ti6Al4V material. In this paper, a micro-nano manufacturing method of Ti6Al4V antibacterial surface was studied. In this process, the surface was firstly cut by low speed wire electrical discharge machine, and then the cut surface was hydrothermal treated. The antibacterial surface prepared by this process had the characteristics of non-toxic, stable structure, and would not cause bacteria to develop drug resistance. The preparation process is simple, friendly to the environment, and can realize mass production. The influence of different cutting times on the antibacterial surface morphology in the low speed wire electrical discharge machining was studied. The micron-grade surface obtained after three cutting times was of good quality, less molten material and high wear resistance. The influence of two etching agents mixed with different molar ratios on the micro-nano structure of antibacterial surface during hydrothermal treatment was analyzed. When the molar ratio of A and B solution was 14:1, the surface structure of the best size was obtained, and the wear resistance of the micro-nano structure surface was improved compared with the polished surface. The antimicrobial test results show that the surface of the prepared workpiece had obvious antimicrobial properties compared with the surface of the polished part after cultured for 24 h. The bacteriostatic rate of Escherichia coli was 49.55%. Based on the above, the research results of this paper have positive significance for the development of micro-nano antibacterial surface.
