摘要

Abstract

Microorganisms promoted corrosion has caused significant loss to marine engineering and the antibacterial coatings have served as a solution that has gained attention. In this study

the chemical vapour deposition technique has been employed to grow three different types of diamond coatings

namely

ultrananocrystalline diamond (UNCD)

nanocrystalline diamond (NCD)

and microcrystalline diamond (MCD) coatings. The evolution of associated surface morphology and the surface functional groups of the grown coatings have demonstrated antibacterial activity in seawater environments. It is found that different ratio of sp

/sp

carbon bonds on the diamond coatings influences their surface property (hydrophobic/hydrophilic)

which changes the anti-adhesion behaviour of diamond coatings against bacteria. This plays a critical role in determining the antibacterial property of the developed coatings. The results show that the diamond coatings arising from the deposition process kill the bacteria

via

a combination of the mechanical effects and the functional groups on the surface of UNCD

NCD

and MCD coatings

respectively. These antibacterial coatings are effective to both Gram-negat

ive bacteria (

E. coli

) and Gram-positive bacteria (

B. subtilis

) for 1–6 h of incubation time. When the contact duration is prolonged to 6 h or over

the MCD coatings begin to reduce the bacteria colonies drastically and enhance the bacteriostatic rate for both

E. coli and B. subtilis
