Abstract

Contamination resulting from microbial adhesion on magnesium alloys is very common in many applications. Self-assembly technology was employed to prepare an antibacterial composite coating by fixing silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) onto the surface of magnesium alloys. The AgNPs were immobilized on the surface of 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS)-modified magnesium alloy AZ31 (APTMS/Mg) through electrostatic inter-attraction between partially protonated amino groups and negatively charged citrate-capped AgNPs, resulting in the AgNPs attached APTMS/Mg (AgNPs/APTMS/Mg) substrate. The prepared Ag colloid and functionalized AZ31 alloy were characterized by ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and electrochemical methods. Finally, the bactericidal activity of AgNPs/APTMS/Mg substrate against Escherichia coli was assessed by the inhibition zone. The results demonstrated that Si-O-Si covalent bonds existed on the substrate with the formation of inorganic Si-O-Mg bonds. AgNPs were immobilized and well-dispersed, forming a uniform submonolayer on the silane film in two dimensions. The AgNPs/APTMS-pretreated AZ31 alloys exhibited better corrosion resistance and excellent antibacterial performance.
