Dataset of the synthesis parameters to deposit YSZ on stainless steel AISI 316L by sputtering technique.

The data presented in this article are related to the research previously published "improvement of adhesion and barrier properties of biomedical stainless steel by deposition of YSZ coatings using RF magnetron sputtering". It contains the structural, morphological, compositional and electrochemical characterization of bare AISI 316L substrate which was used as a substrate to coat with yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ). The chemical composition and topography analyses from X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and micrographs from atomic force microscopy (AFM) as well as the roughness value of the YSZ-sputtered coating on AISI 316L substrates are presented as complementary data of the article.

Dataset on electrochemical reduced graphene oxide production: Effect of synthesis parameters.

Structural and microstructural characterization combined with vibrational, rotational modes are quite important to determinate reduction degree during synthesis of reduced graphene oxide. These data and analysis support the research article "Electrochemical alternative to obtain reduced graphene oxide by pulse potential: effect of synthesis parameters and study of corrosion properties" (López-Oyama et al., 2018).

Fabrication of Sputtered Ce/La, La/Ce Oxide Bilayers on AA6061 and AA7075 Aluminum Alloys for the Development of Corrosion Protective Coatings.

This work provides a comparative study on the corrosion protection efficiency of Ce, La films as well as Ce/La and La/Ce oxide bilayered coatings deposited onto AA7075 and AA6061 substrates by the radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering technique. The coating thickness ranged approximately from 12 to 835 nm, which changed with the deposition parameters and substrate composition. The relationship between microstructure, roughness and electrochemical performance is examined.

Response of MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts, L929 fibroblasts, and J774 macrophages to fluoride surface-modified AZ31 magnesium alloy.

The present work evaluates the biocompatibility of a fluoride surface-modified AZ31 magnesium alloy (AZ31HF) with different cell lines that coexist in the implant environment to test its potential use as a biodegradable and absorbable biomaterial for bone repair. A clear stimulation of cell proliferation and an enhancement of the mitochondrial respiratory activity were observed when mouse osteoblasts (MC3T3-E1), fibroblasts (L929), and macrophages (J774) cell lines were cultured with the modified alloy. No significant change in apoptosis or viability rates was observed when osteoblasts and fibroblasts cultures were grown in the presence of this alloy.
