Abstract

          This research aimed to study the surface treatment of zirconium dioxide (ZrO2) thin film coated on stainless steel by using alkaline treatment, ozone treatment and combined treatment with alkaline and ozone. The alkaline treatment was carried out by soaking ZrO2 thin film in 3 mol/L of calcium chloride (CaCl2) solution at 60 ºC for 24 h. The ozone treatment was performed by introducing ozone gas through the flask containing ZrO2 thin film with flowrate of 250 mg/h for 24 h. The combined method was carried out by introducing ozone gas with flowrate of 250 mg/h through the flask containing ZrO2 thin film soaked in 3 mol/L CaCl2 at 60 ºC for 24 h. Then the hydroxyapatite (HAp) formation on ZrO2 thin film was examined for all treated ZrO2 thin films and untreated sample after soaking in simulated body fluid (SBF) for 7 days. The crystallography of HAp was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The formation and adhesion of HAp were determined by photographs taken from scanning electron microscope (SEM). Moreover, the element composition of HAp was analyzed by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The results showed that the treated ZrO2 thin film provided greater density of HAp formation and higher ratio of Ca/P than that of the untreated sample. Moreover, the sample treated by the combined alkaline and ozone treatments had higher adhesive with HAp and film surface than the untreated sample.
