Preparation of a hydrophobic cerium oxide nanoparticle coating with polymer binder via a facile solution route

Study of Biological Behavior and Antimicrobial Properties of Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles

“…CeO 2 NPs have been used in bone tissue engineering because they can regulate mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) development and differentiation, encourage bone regeneration on titanium surfaces, and improve vascularization [20,21]. Their usage in clinical practice could be as different surface coating techniques for metal oxide NPs, such as dip coating, spray coating, and spin coating [22]. Apart from the bone regenerative abilities and the role of CeO 2 NPs as osteogenic agents, there are absolute indications that nanoceria could provide a prerequisite for successful regeneration with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial factors [23].…”

Molecular dynamics investigation of the structural and energetic properties of CeO2–MOx (M = Gd, La, Ce, Zr) nanoparticles

“…For example, it has been already known that ceria can be used to build hydrophobic nanoparticles for coating, although powder or bulk ceria is slightly hydrophilic. 15 The CeO 2 (111) surface is more hydrophobic and the edges are the main factor in the surface-water interaction, 13 so this application is only possible because of the particles edge abundance. However, our atomistic understanding on the CeO 2 surface-edge relation is far from satisfactory when compared with surface-edge effects in metallic nanoparticles.…”

“…36,37 Beyond that, the amorphization and recrystallization methodology can be easily extended to mixed particles and other systems with an adequate force-field. 38,39 Therefore, all those experimental 5,6,10,11,14,15,21,[26][27][28][29] and theoretical 8,9,13,22,25,30,31,33,35 For that, we employed nanoparticles formed by 500 or 864 cations combined with the appropriate number of oxygen anions, which generates particles with sizes from 1 nm to 5 nm.…”
