Abstract
Chitosan (CTS) coatings contained calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P) on titanium (Ti) surface are prepared by the cathode liquid phase plasma technology (CLPT), in a certain concentration electrolyte solution with selective additions of ammonium dihydrogen phosphate and calcium nitrate. It is indicated that the parameters for a stable discharge are voltage of 400 V, frequency of 100 Hz, duty cycle of 30% based on a large amount of experiment data. The morphology, structure and composition of the coated samples are studied by SEM, FTIR, XRD, XPS. The results demonstrate that the composite coatings are uniform, and some solid particles of inorganic salt containing calcium and phosphorus dispersed on the coatings. CA tests show that the samples treated by the liquid plasma became less hydrophilic. The variation of hydrophilicity on the CLPT treated titanium is attributed to the change of the function groups on the sample surface. Meanwhile, a possible formation mechanism of the composite coatings is discussed.
