Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Nanotechnology
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Integrating multiple functions into single material systems presents significant challenges.
  • Existing Titanium-Zinc (Ti-Zn) binary alloys are typically mixed phases with limited applications (max. three).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To synthesize and characterize a novel single-phase Ti-Zn alloy with enhanced multifunctional properties.
  • To demonstrate a glucose-sensing-triggered energy-storage mechanism for potential diagnostic applications.

Main Methods:

  • Synthesis of a stable single phase 50 Ti-50 Zn (Ti0.5Zn0.5) alloy.
  • Evaluation of thermal stability, mechanical, tribological, and corrosion resistance properties.
  • Assessment of biocompatibility, antibacterial activity, glucose sensing, and supercapacitor performance.

Main Results:

  • The synthesized single-phase Ti0.5Zn0.5 is thermally stable up to 750 °C.
  • It exhibits excellent mechanical, tribological, and corrosion resistance properties.
  • Exceptional biocompatibility, antibacterial activity against E. coli, rapid glucose detection with high selectivity, and remarkable supercapacitor behavior (>30,000 cycles with >100% capacity retention) were observed.

Conclusions:

  • The novel single-phase Ti0.5Zn0.5 is a superior multifunctional material compared to existing mixed-phase Ti-Zn compounds.
  • Its properties enable the prototyping of a glucose-sensing-triggered energy-storage device for wearable point-of-care diagnostics.
