dc.description.abstractThe utilization of magnesium-based biomaterials in biomedical applications has grown considerably in recent years due to their favourable biocompatibility, biodegradability, and mechanical properties that closely resemble those of bones. However, the use of Mg-based alloys in aggressive environments, such as human bodily fluids, is hindered by their susceptibility to rapid corrosion, which compromises their mechanical properties. This can lead to infections in the body due to uncontrolled corrosion. In this study, a novel approach was employed to enhance the corrosion resistance of biodegradable ZK60 magnesium alloy and achieve optimal surface properties that can potentially enhance its antibacterial performance, hardness, and toughness. This approach involved the application of duplex treatments consisting of TiN doped with Cu coatings deposited via high power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) followed by a Sol-gel top layer. The study systematically investigated the surface properties (wettability, roughness, and morphology), hardness, toughness and adhesion of the coatings to the substrate. To assess the corrosion resistance, mass change and hydrogen evolution of the samples, they were immersed in Hanks Balanced Salts Solution. Electrochemical tests were conducted to estimate the corrosion behavior of the samples. The in-vitro corrosion tests results demonstrated that the duplex treatments enhanced the corrosion resistance of the uncoated magnesium alloy samples. The duplex treatments exhibited suitable properties, including high corrosion resistance, hardness, toughness and adequate values of wettability and porosity-roughness. Therefore, they can be considered a promising option for use in biodegradable magnesium implants.en
