摘要
This study investigates the effect of the nitrided layer on antibacterial properties of biomedical stainless steel, grade 316L. The surfaces were sanded #1200 mesh papers, subsequently plasma-nitrided at a temperature of 400 degrees C for 2 h, which resulted in a 4.5 pm thick layer. The characterization was made using optical and scanning electron (SEM) microscopies, energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS) X-ray diffraction, and Vickers hardness testing. The antibacterial characteristic of the untreated steel and the nitrided layer was evaluated using Gram-negative Escherichia coli ATCC8739, according to Japanese International Standard (JIS) no. Z2801:2000. A single gamma-phase layer was formed, supersaturated in nitrogen, increasing the surface hardness significantly by 35%. The bacterial test demonstrated that the nitrided layer presented suitable antibacterial characteristics.
