Description

Conductive hydrophilic MAX phase coating on surface of medical cutter and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The application belongs to the technical field of metal surface protection, and particularly relates to a conductive hydrophilic MAX phase coating on the surface of a medical cutter, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
The medical device industry is one of the fastest growing industries worldwide and is a high point of competition among the large countries of science and technology in the world. The surgical knife is an indispensable tool in surgical operation, and modern high-tech products integrating the functions of cutting, hemostasis, illumination, electric waves and the like, such as a high-frequency electric knife, an argon knife, an ultrasonic knife, a LEEP knife, a sapphire knife, a surgical scissors and the like, have been developed at present. With the development of bionics, researches on surface modification of surgical knives have attracted interest to researchers, and development of a hydrophilic and lubricious coating is important for reducing adhesion between a knife and tissues, reducing damage to the body, preventing thrombosis and vasospasm, improving safety of surgery, and relieving pain of patients. The most prominent use of hydrophilic coatings in the medical device field is to improve or create lubricity, a characteristic of this wet slip that allows a catheter, guidewire or medical accessory to easily pass through a patient's narrow and tortuous anatomical path. More advanced, hydrophilic coatings may also be used in the field of drug release and biological interactions to release antibodies or active pharmaceutical ingredients to interact with body tissues in a specific manner.
The high-frequency electric knife is a surgical instrument for tissue cutting instead of a mechanical surgical knife, and can accurately and efficiently cut tissues and stop bleeding and sterilize wounds by contacting the tissue with the body through high-frequency high-voltage electricity generated by the tip of the electrode, so that the surgical time can be effectively shortened, the surgical complications can be reduced, and the surgical efficiency can be greatly improved. However, conventional stainless steel electrodes can adhere to liquefied fat and denatured proteins at high temperatures, which can affect the electrical conductivity of the electrotome and the adhering tissue can lead to incision bleeding, increasing the risk of surgery and patient pain.
Aiming at the surface tissue adhesion problem, PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) coating has been developed to modify the surface of an electrode cutter. The PTFE coating can obviously reduce the adhesion between the cutter and the tissue and effectively avoid the pollution of the cutter, but the traditional PTFE coating has poor conductive performance, and arc discharge is formed on the surface of the electrode under high-frequency current, so that the instantaneous high temperature of thousands DEG C can be generated, which is far higher than the use temperature of the coating, so that the coating is vaporized and decomposed, harmful substances such as hydrofluoric acid and the like are released, and the health of both doctors and patients is influenced.
The MAX phase is a group of hexagonal structures with thermodynamic stability and close-packed (P6 3 Lamellate high performance material of/mmc), wherein M is a precursor comprising a lanthanideThe transition group metal element, A is a group IIIA or IVA element, the most common are Al, si and Sn elements, and X is C or N element. The unique structure ensures that the ceramic has the advantages of excellent conductivity, machinability and the like of metal and simultaneously has the advantages of high ceramic melting point and good corrosion resistance. The excellent thermal stability and conductivity make the coating possess wide application prospect in the fields of electric coagulation knives, high-frequency surgical knives and the like, but the wettability of the MAX phase coating is poor at present, so that development of a hydrophilic MAX phase coating is needed to prevent adhesion between a knife and tissues in the surgical process and reduce the pain of patients.

In the embodiment, the substrate is a 304 stainless steel medical cutter, and the preparation method of the substrate surface coating is as follows:
placing the polished, cleaned and dried 304 stainless steel electrode cutter on a rotatable base frame, and vacuumizing the cavity to 2×10 -3 Pa, heating the cavity to 150 ℃; to a vacuum degree of less than 3×10 -5 Pa,Introducing 30sccm argon, etching the substrate for 30min, wherein the current of the ion beam is 0.2A and the bias voltage is-150V; then changing the argon flow to 200sccm, the magnetron sputtering power to 2000W, the electric arc target current to 70A, and cleaning the target for 20min; then argon is introduced with the flow of 200sccm, the flow of methane is 25sccm, the power of an Al target is adjusted to 3300W, the current of a Ti target is adjusted to 60A, the bias voltage is adjusted to-200V, and a Ti-Al-C coating is deposited for 60min, wherein the thickness of the coating is about 4 mu m.
In this embodiment, after the Ti-Al-C coating deposited on the surface of the medical tool, no treatment was performed, and the contact angle of the obtained coating with water was 98.66 °.
Comparative example 3:
this example is a comparative example of example 1 described above.
In this example, the preparation method of the Ti-Al-C coating deposited on the surface of the medical cutter is exactly the same as that of example 1, except that: the temperature of the high-temperature steam heat treatment is 300 ℃, the heat preservation time is 30 hours, and the contact angle between the coating and water after the high-temperature steam treatment is 81.14 degrees.
Comparative example 4:
this example is a comparative example of example 2 described above.
In this example, the preparation method of the V-Al-C coating deposited on the surface of the medical cutter is exactly the same as that of example 2, except that: the temperature of the high-temperature steam treatment is 1000 ℃, the heat preservation time is 0.5h, and the contact angle between the coating and water after the high-temperature steam treatment is 89.54 degrees.
The above comparative example 1 and examples 1 and 1 were examined by XRD as shown in fig. 5. It can be seen that the phase composition and phase structure of the high-temperature steam heat treatment and the vacuum heat treatment have no obvious change, and are Ti with better crystallinity 2 AlC coating, it shows that the high temperature steam heat treatment does not change the phase structure of the coating, and still has excellent conductivity and high temperature stability of MAX phase coating.
The results of combining the surface morphology and XRD of all examples found that: the phase composition of the coating after high-temperature steam heat treatment is not obviously different from that of vacuum annealing treatment, but the former is decomposed to a certain extent due to large particles generated on the surface of the coating by arc molten dropsThe whole large particles are decomposed into tortoiseshells, so that the roughness of the surface of the coating is improved; on the other hand, the surface of the coating is oxidized by high-temperature steam heat treatment to generate Al 2 O 3 Isooxides, improve the hydrophilicity of the coating, but these oxides are less abundant and cannot be detected by XRD. Compared with the MAX phase prepared by the traditional vacuum annealing, the method greatly improves the wettability of the MAX phase coating and simultaneously still maintains good conductivity and corrosion resistance.
Fig. 6 shows a comparison of contact angles for comparative example 1, example 2 and example 3. It can be seen that comparative example 1 has a contact angle greater than 90 °, and is a hydrophobic coating; whereas the contact angles of the examples are all less than 90 deg., a hydrophilic coating. It is particularly pointed out that example 1 has a minimum contact angle of 52.95 °, and the hydrophilicity is significantly improved compared to comparative example 1. And can be seen from the illustrations: the comparative example showed severe tissue adhesion on the medical knife after the surgical environment test, but no such condition on the knife after the high temperature steam heat treatment, and no obvious difference between the knife and the morphology before the test.
In addition, the inventors have conducted experiments with other materials, process operations, and process conditions as described in this specification with reference to the foregoing examples, and have all obtained desirable results.
It should be understood that the technical solution of the present application is not limited to the above specific embodiments, and all technical modifications made according to the technical solution of the present application without departing from the spirit of the present application and the scope of the claims are within the scope of the present application.
