Popis: | Titanium and its alloys are preferred materials used for medical devices manufacturing due to their specific properties. The corrosion behavior in artificial saliva of the newly developed Ti-Mo-W alloys, with elastic modulus closer to the human bone value was studied by means of linear polarization technique in the following steps: i) measurement/monitoring of open circuit potential (EOC) over 6 hours; ii) tracing linear polarization curves from ±200 mV (vs. OCP) - Tafel plots, with a scan rate of 0.167 mV/s. Electrochemical tests were performed according to ASTM G59-97 (2014)using a Potentiostat/Galvanostatto which a low current interface (LCI) was coupled. The tests were performedin Fusayama Meyer artificial saliva with a pH of 5.2 at the human body temperature (37±0.5°C) which mimic the oral environment. The results indicate that the alloys Ti15Mo7W and Ti15Mo11W have better corrosion behavior than Ti6Al4V. |
