Antibacterial and corrosion resistance of TiN/Ag multilayers by ion beam assisted deposition
TiN/Ag multilayers were deposited on medical stainless steel 317L by ion beam assisted deposition (IBAD). Standard agar dilution method was used to test antibacterial ratio using E.coil and S.aureus. Electro-chemical method was used to test corrosion resistance of the film in Hank’s simulated human plasma. The structure and depth profile of the elements were investigated by XPS
XRD and AES. The results show that a strong antibacterial ratio (>99%) can be obtained when the modulation period of TiN/Ag multilayers is 8 nm (5 nm TiN and 3 nm Ag). Its corrosion resistance is better than medical stainless steel 317L
