A METHOD FOR PRODUCTION OF A COATED ENDOVASCULAR DEVICE

摘要

A method of coating a endovascular device that includes coating of a tubular body's surface by at least a thin layer (s) of a inert and biocompatible titanium based material. This method is performed by the following steps in succession: Deposition of a first Titanium layer (21). First nitrogen treatment of said first titanium layer (21) by transmission of high ionic currents on the substrate (Closed Field UnBalanced Magnetron Sputter Ion Plating) to obtain the transformation of at least a part of said first titanium layer (21) in a first layer of titanium nitride ceramic coating (210). Deposition on this said first layer of titanium nitride ceramic coating (210) of a second titanium layer (22). Second nitrogen treatment of said second titanium layer (22) by transmission of high ionic currents on the substrate (Closed Field UnBalanced Magnetron Sputter Ion Plating) to obtain the transformation of at least a part of said second titanium layer (22) in a second layer of titanium nitride ceramic coating (220).
