A corrosion and wear resistant coating was developed on the surface of titanium alloy using micro-arc oxidation (MAO) technology with addition of lignin sulfonate (SLS) as an additive in electrolytes containing 15 g/L of NaSiO·9HO and 10 g/L of NaPO·12HO. The effects of concentration of SLS on the surface morphology, microstructure, and corrosion-wear performance of the MAO coatings were systematically investigated. Wetting properties and mechanical characteristics of MAO coatings were determined by contact angle measurements, microhardness testing, and bonding strength assessments. The corrosion resistance of the MAO coating in artificial saliva media was assessed through electrochemical testing, while its tribological and corrosion-wear performance was evaluated via dry friction tests and corrosion-wear tests, respectively. Experimental results indicate that the incorporation of lignin sulfonate as the electrolyte additive enhances pore filling within the coating matrix while improving both mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. Notably, MAO coatings with a concentration of 1 g/L exhibited superior mechanical properties; furthermore, their corrosion current density decreased by one to three orders of magnitude compared to that of the TC4 substrate.

Pyroptosis, a form of programmed cell death mediated by the gasdermin family, has emerged as a promising strategy for inducing anti-tumor immunity. However, efficiently inducing pyroptosis in tumor cells remains a significant challenge due to the limited activation of key mediators like caspases in tumor tissues. Herein, a self-priming pyroptosis-inducing agent (MnNZ@OMV) is developed by integrating outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) with manganese dioxide nanozymes (MnNZ) to trigger pyroptosis in tumor cells.

Magnesium alloys are often used in bone repair surgeries due to their biodegradability and excellent elastic modulus, making them a promising alternative to traditional nondegradable implants like titanium alloys. However, their rapid degradation rate limits their use as implants in the body. To enhance the corrosion resistance and bioactivity of magnesium alloys, we applied an ultrasonic spray coating on microarc oxidized (MAO) AZ31 magnesium alloy, using a mixture of silk fibroin (SF) and nanohydroxyapatite (nHAp).

Introduction: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) frequently invades the jaw, and surgical treatment often leads to bone defects requiring reconstruction with titanium plates. To enhance the anti-tumor and bone regeneration properties of titanium, a selenium-modified hydroxyapatite coating was developed on titanium surfaces.
Methods: Selenium-modified hydroxyapatite coatings was fabricated using micro-arc oxidation (MAO).

Initiated chemical vapor deposition (iCVD) has emerged as a versatile technique for developing functional nanocoatings that address critical food and agricultural challenges. This review highlights the unique capacities of iCVD nanocoatings, which enable precise engineering of surface properties, such as targeted cellular and molecular interactions, antimicrobial activity, and fouling resistance. In addition, the solvent-free nature of iCVD is particularly advantageous for coating sensitive materials and complex geometries commonly used across food and agriculture applications.
