Abstrakt: Surface modifications not only improve the corrosion resistance of Co-Cr-Mo dental alloys (Bego Wirobond® C) but also ensure their long-term performance and reliability in dental applications. This paper describes the preparation of single-layer TiO2-ZrO2 sol–gel coatings on the Co-Cr-Mo dental alloy using the method of dip-coating. The TiO2-ZrO2 sol–gel coatings were sintered at 300 and 500 °C. SEM analysis shows that sintering at 300 °C produces a uniform, slightly dense structure without micro-cracks, while sintering at 500 °C results in a denser structure with micro-cracks due to higher stress and shrinkage. EDS confirms that sintering temperature affects the elemental composition of the coating, with higher temperatures causing the volatilization or diffusion of Ti and Zr. Roughness measurements indicate that the Ra value increases with the sintering temperature, meeting dental application requirements. Electrochemical measurements by open-circuit potential, EIS, and cyclic potentiodynamic curves demonstrate that sintering temperature and saliva composition affect corrosion resistance, with NaF and mouthwashes (Listerine Total Care Teeth Protection® and Meridol®) generally increasing charge transfer resistance and double-layer capacitance. The ceramic TiO2-ZrO2 coatings significantly reduce pitting corrosion susceptibility at physiological and acidic pH, with the 500 °C sintered coating showing better protective properties. These findings highlight the potential of TiO2-ZrO2 coatings in enhancing the performance of Co-Cr-Mo dental alloys. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
