  • Silver nanocluster/silica composite coatings were deposited in a less than two hours process on both soda-lime and silica glasses by RF co-sputtering, without densification post-treatment. The effect of thermal treatments on their microstructure in the range of 150-450 ?C, the presence of silver ions and/or silver nanoclusters, the nanocluster size and their position inside the sputtered layers have been investigated by several characterization techniques (UV- Vis, XPS, XRD, TOF-ERDA) which evidenced a sodium/silver ionic exchange between the sputtered coatings and the soda-lime substrates after heating up to 450 ?C. The antibacterial activity of all coatings was verified against S. aureus and C. albicans by disk diffusion method and colonies forming units (CFU): in agreement with the microstructural results, the antibacterial activity present on all coatings was slightly reduced after heating at 450 ?C. All coatings retained their antibacterial activity after gamma ray and ethylene oxide gas (EtO) sterilization. However, they resulted damaged by humidity plus UV ageing and by autoclave sterilization. Tape resistance (ASTM D3359-97) nanoindentation and scratch resistance tests have been done on each coating, revealing a good adhesion on soda-lime substrates and a reduced hardness of the coating deposited on soda-lime substrates after heating at 450 ?C.

Abstract
  • Silver nanocluster/silica composite coatings were deposited on both soda-lime and silica glasses by radio frequency (RF) co-sputtering. The effect of thermal treatments on the microstructure in the range of 150-450 °C were examined by UV- visible spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Time of Flight-Elastic Recoil Detection Analysis. Sodium/silver ionic exchange was evidenced for coatings sputtered on soda-lime substrates after heating at 450 °C; presence of silver ions and/or silver nanoclusters, nanocluster size and their position inside the sputtered layers will be discussed for as-deposited and heated coatings on both substrates. The antibacterial activity of all coatings was determined against Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans by disk diffusion method and colonies forming units count; in agreement with microstructural results, the antibacterial activity present on all coatings was slightly reduced after heating at 450 °C. All coatings have been submitted to humidity plus UV ageing and sterilization by autoclave, gamma ray and ethylene oxide gas. Tape resistance (ASTM D3359-97) tests have been done on each coating before and after ageing and sterilizations, revealing a good adhesion on soda-lime substrates, except for those aged in humidity plus UV and sterilized by autoclave. Scratch tests and nanoindentation tests have been done on each coating, as-deposited and after heating at 450 °C. The coating hardness was improved by heating only when coatings were deposited on silica. The heating of coatings deposited on soda-lime substrates gave opposite effect on their hardness. (literal)
