As an alternative strategy to achieve the desired bone augmentation, tenting screw technology (TST) has considerably broadened the indications for implant treatment. Titanium tenting screws are typically used in TST to maintain the space for bone regeneration . However, a high degree of osteogenic integration complicate titanium tenting screw removal and impact the bone healing micro-environment. Previous efforts have been focused on modifying titanium surfaces to enhance osseointegration while ignoring the opposite process. Due to the vital role of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in bone regeneration, it might be feasible to reduce osseointegration around titanium tenting screws by resisting the adhesion of BMSCs. Herein, poly(ethylene glycol)methyl ether methacrylate (poly(PEGMA)) with an optimal length of PEG chain was incorporated with a Ti surface in terms of surface-initiated activators regenerated by electron transfer atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ARGET ATRP). The cell apoptosis analysis showed that the new surface would not induce the apoptosis of BMSCs. Then, the adhesive and proliferative behaviors of BMSCs on the surface were analyzed which indicated that the poly(PEGMA) surface could inhibit the proliferation of BMSCs through resisting the adhesion process. Furthermore, in vivo experiments revealed the presence of the poly(PEGMA) on the surface resulted in a lower bone formation and osseointegration compared with the Ti group. Collectively, this dense poly(PEGMA) surface of Ti may serve as a promising material for clinical applications in the future. Statement of significance The poly(ethylene glycol)methyl ether methacrylate (poly(PEGMA)) with an optimal length of PEG chain was grafted onto a Ti surface by surface-initiated activators regenerated by electron transfer atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ARGET ATRP). The PEGMA surface could reduce the osteogenic integration by preventing the adhesion of cells, resulting in a lower pullout force of the modified implant and thereby desirable and feasible applications in dental surgery.
Polyphenols have been utilized to connect hydrophobic modifiers with certain substrates because of their adhesive properties and multiple active groups in their structure. Nevertheless, research is scarce regarding using polyphenols to enhance the superhydrophobic properties of polyamide . In this study, a plant-derived phenolic compound , p-coumaric acid (pCA), was chelated with Fe 3+ and deposited on the polyamide 66 (PA66) surface to increase its roughness. Subsequently, octadecanethiol was grafted onto pCA using a thiol-ene click chemistry reaction to create a superhydrophobic modified PA66 fabric (pCA-Fe-SH-PA66) with a static water contact angle (CA) of 154.4° and a sliding angle (SA) of 2°. The resulting pCA-Fe-SH-PA66 demonstrated excellent capabilities in self-cleaning, UV-blocking, photothermal conversion, and oil-water separation. Furthermore, pCA-Fe-SH-PA66 exhibited remarkable antibacterial ability, displaying inhibitory rates of 97.00% against E. coli and 96.15% against S. aureus , respectively. Additionally, it demonstrated noteworthy stability in a series of tests, encompassing 225 min of washing, 1000 cycles of abrasion, 48 h of UV light aging, 48 h of acid/base solution, seawater, and organic reagents immersion. Furthermore, it was demonstrated that three additional plant-derived phenolic compounds, namely 3-hydroxycinnamic acid (HA), polyatin (PD), and 4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxycinnamic acid (HDA), can also be effectively utilized for the multifunctional modification of PA66 fabric. The proposed modification method is mild, fast, and simple, offering a novel approach to the multifunctional modification of synthetic materials. The modified PA66 fabric holds potential in applications such as oily wastewater treatment , outdoor sportswear, tents, and other fields.
