Surface Modification of Electrospun Bioresorbable and Biostable Scaffolds by Pulsed DC Magnetron Sputtering of Titanium for Gingival Tissue Regeneration

Abstract: In this study, polymer scaffolds were fabricated from biodegradable poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) and from non-biodegradable vinylidene fluoride-tetrafluoroethylene (VDF-TeFE) by electrospinning. These polymer scaffolds were subsequently surface-modified by sputtering titanium targets in an argon atmosphere. Direct current pulsed magnetron sputtering was applied to prevent a significant influence of discharge plasma on the morphology and mechanical properties of the nonwoven polymer scaffolds. The scaffold… Show more

“…Viable L-929 and MG-63 cells stained green were observed throughout the membrane, showing significant cell proliferation over more than 24 h of culture. It proliferated continuously over time, suggesting that it is suitable for applications in membranes for tissue and bone regeneration [8,30,31]. The PLLA/gelatin…”

“…The Raman spectra of unmodified PLGA scaffolds did not show peaks because the metal coating on the fibers can easily reflect the light, which significantly reduces the signal intensity. In addition, the absence of polymer peaks in the Raman spectra and the significant change in the intensity of C1s peaks in the XPS spectra of the surface-modified PLGA scaffolds might be related to carbon contamination [ 62 ]. According to reference [ 62 ], after argon ion beam etching of surface-modified PLGA scaffolds, the intensity of C1s spectra decreased and the intensity of Ti2p and O1s spectra increased.…”

According to reference [ 62 ], after argon ion beam etching of surface-modified PLGA scaffolds, the intensity of C1s spectra decreased and the intensity of Ti2p and O1s spectra increased. This indicates the formation of impurities on the surface of the framework after modification by magnetron sputtering.…”

“…Over the past few decades, these thin films have undergone extensive study, and numerous efforts have been made to broaden their application fields to include areas such as oil hydrophobicity [ 11 , 12 ], hydrophobic anti-icing [ 13 ], and hydrophobic anti-corrosion [ 14 , 15 ]. Additionally, fresh studies that explore approximate theories and fabrication techniques for hydrophobic thin films have emerged [ 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 ].…”

“…However, these techniques differ in terms of their efficiency, cost, simplicity of use, and requirements for specialized reagents. Some techniques are also Materials 2023, 16, 3764 2 of 22 restricted to basic laboratory experiments, and much work still needs to be performed to prepare hydrophobic films on a commercial scale. Therefore, researchers are working to make these films easier to prepare, cheaper, more durable, and more functional.…”
