    Effect of magnesium and osteoblast cell presence on hydroxyapatite formation on (Ti,Mg)N thin film coatings
    (Springer, 2016-07-19) Önder, Sakip; Çalıkoğlu Koyuncu, Ayşe Ceren Eren; Köse, Gamze Torun; Kazmanlı, Kürşat Muhammet; Kök, Fatma Neşe; Ürgen, Mustafa
    TiN and (Ti,Mg)N thin film coatings were deposited on Ti substrates by an arc-physical vapor deposition technique. The effect of cell presence on hydroxyapatite (HA) formation was investigated using surfaces with four different Mg contents (0, 8.1, 11.31, and 28.49 at.%). Accelerated corrosion above 10 at.% Mg had a negative effect on the performance in terms of both cell proliferation and mineralization. In the absence of cells, Mg-free TiN coatings and low-Mg (8.1 at.%)-doped (Ti,Mg)N surfaces led to an early HA deposition (after 7 days and 14 days, respectively) in cell culture medium (DMEM), but the crystallinity was low. More crystalline HA structures were obtained in the presence of the cells. HA deposits with an ideal Ca/P ratio were obtained at least a week earlier, at day 14, in TiN and low-Mg (8.1 at.%)-doped (Ti,Mg)N compared with that of high-Mg-containing surfaces (>10 at.%). A thicker mineralized matrix was formed on low-Mg (8.1 at.%)-doped (Ti,Mg)N relative to that of the TiN sample. Low-Mg doping (<10 at.%) into TiN coatings resulted in better cell proliferation and thicker mineralized matrix formation, so it could be a promising alternative for hard tissue applications.

    Effect of annealing rate on film formation from poly(vinyl acetate) latex particles
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2008) Arda, Ertan; Kara, Selim; Pekcan, Mehmet Önder
    The photon transmission technique was used to monitor the time and temperature evolution of film formation from poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) latex particles. The latex films were prepared below the glass transition temperature (T-g) of PVAc. These films were annealed at various annealing rates above the Tg of PVAc. It was observed that transmitted photon intensity (I-tr) from these films increased at all annealing rates as the annealing time and temperature are increased. The increase in the I-tr is attributed to the increase in crossing density at the junction surface. The healing points (tau(H), T-H) were determined for various annealing rates and the healing activation energy (Delta H) was measured and found to be 43.4 kcal/mol. The interdiffusion (backbone) activation energies (Delta E) and reptation frequencies (nu) of PVAc chains were measured. The averaged value of Delta E was found to be 226.6 kcal/mol. It is observed that Delta E is unchanged but nu is increased as increasing the annealing rates.
