Popis: The nano-silver/Mg-Al hydrotalcite (Ag-LDH) functional coating was prepared onto magnesium alloy by one-step hydrothermal reaction for improving its antibacterial and degrading property. The properties of coating involving microstructure, composition, in vitro degradation, cytocompatibility and antibacterial were also studied. The results show that the nano silver particles and hydrotalcite coating were in-situ formed from the alloy surface during the reacting process. Additionally, the pH variation and antimicrobial test reveal that the fabricated Ag-LDH coating can effectively suppress the degradation of the matrix and significantly inhibit the proliferation of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, which is with great potential to improve functionality and corrosion resistance of biomedical magnesium alloy.
