Antibacterial Properties of Titanate Nanofiber Thin Films Formed on a Titanium Plate

Figure 2

XRD patterns of the thin film before and after the silver ion exchange treatment; the XRD pattern immediately after the hydrothermal reaction and prior to the silver ion exchange treatment (a) and the XRD pattern following the silver ion exchange treatment (b). Peak assignment: ●, sodium titanate; ▲, titanium; ○, silver titanate.
