Electrochemical impedance spectroscopic studies of titanium and its alloys in saline medium

The influence of potential on electrochemical behaviour of pure Ti, Ti‐6Al‐7Nb, and Ti‐6Al‐4V ELI alloy under saline conditions were investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). All measurements were carried out in saline solution (0.9% NaCl) at different impressed potentials (corrosion potential (E_corr), 0 mV (SCE) and + 500 mV (SCE)) for 1 h. The experimental results were compared with those obtained by potentiodynamic polarization curves. The corrosion current densities obtained for the titanium alloys showed lower values than for pure Ti, indicating the formation of a stable passive film with time. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopic studies indicated that the resistance of the passive film increased with the impressed potential. The impedance spectra were fitted using a non‐linear least square (NLLS) fitting procedure. The magnitude of the corrosion resistance of titanium alloys under saline solution was compared and results are presented.     

Electrochemical behavior of TiN film coated Ti−Nb alloys for dental materials

In order to study the electrochemical behaviors of TiN film coated Ti−Nb alloys for dental materials, Ti containing Nb up to 3, 20, and 40 wt.% was melted by a vacuum furnace and coated with TiN by EB-PVD. the electrochemical behaviors were investigated using a potentiostat in 0.9% NaCl solution and the corrosion surface was observed using SEM and XPS. Ti−3Nb and Ti−20Nb alloys have α+β phase structure. In the case of Ti−40Nb, the microstructure had a coarse β phase. The microstructural changed from equiaxed to acicular and an increase of β-phase in Ti−Nb alloys was observed with increased Nb content. The current density at 300 mV (potential of oral environment) of Ti−40Nb alloy was lower than that of the other alloys in 0.9% NaCl. The pitting corrosion resistance of Ti−40Nb was higher than that of Ti−3Nb and Ti−20Nb alloys in the 0.9% NaCl solution. The corrosion potential and pitting potential of TiN coated Ti alloy increased with increasing Nb content but the current density at 300 mV and the current density at the passive region decreased. The TiN coated Ti−40Nb alloy offers good corrosion resistance for dental implants compared with non-TiN coats alloys.     

Preliminary electrochemical testing of some Zr–Ti alloys in 0.9% NaCl solution

The aim of this study is to investigate the corrosion behaviour of three ZrTi alloys (denoted with Zr5Ti, Zr25Ti, and Zr45Ti) in 0.9% NaCl solution. For comparison, cp‐Ti was also investigated. In order to study the localized corrosion resistance and corrosion behavior at open circuit potential versus time, the open circuit potential (E_OC) was recorded, and the cyclic potentiodynamic polarization (CPP) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were performed. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observations were made following the CPP tests. The Zr5Ti alloy was the most susceptible to localized corrosion. The Zr25Ti alloy presents a dangerous breakdown potential but have a sufficiently negative zero corrosion potential that the difference between them is sufficiently to provide a higher localized corrosion resistance in comparison with Zr5Ti. Among ZrTi alloys subjected to investigation, the Zr45Ti alloy had a much larger passive range in the polarization curve and was the most resistant to localized corrosion. For used test conditions, the localized corrosion was not found for the cp‐Ti. The EIS tests show that both investigated ZrTi alloys and cp‐Ti exhibit passivity after 168 h immersion in 0.9% NaCl solution, at open circuit potential.

The effect of fluoride on the electrochemical behavior of Ti and some of its alloys for dental applications

Titanium is the best metal for making dental implants and restorations. In the last decade, new titanium alloys have been developed in different areas of dentistry. Concurrently, treatments using fluoride supplementation, such as odontology fluoride containing gels, have also been widely used in odontology. The aim of this study is to investigate the electrochemical behaviour of a new titanium alloy containing Cu and Ag, in fluoride‐containing media, and compare it with the behavior of Ti and Ti6Al4V, which are used frequently as biomaterials. Open circuit potential, polarization resistance and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements revealed that the corrosion resistance of titanium and its alloys is controlled by the fluoride ion concentration and the pH of the solution. The presence of F^? ions in neutral solution does not hinder the formation of a protective layer of Ti and its alloys. Thus, the corrosion resistance of Ti is maintained in this medium. However, the corrosion of Ti and its alloys are enhanced in an acidic environment, because F^? ions in the solution combines with H⁺ ion to form HF, even in low fluoride concentration.     

Effect of synovial fluid temperature on the corrosion resistance of Ti6Al4V,Ti6Al7Nb,and CoCrMo alloys

The frictional heat generated during the operation of the joint prosthesis in vivo could change the corrosion resistance of the prosthesis material. In this paper, the corrosion behavior of three medical alloys at different synovial fluid temperatures was analyzed using electrochemical measurement technology. Furthermore, the scanning electron microscope and energy-dispersive spectrometer were used to characterize the surface morphology and composition of the alloys after long-term immersion. The results show that increasing temperature causes the open-circuit potential of titanium alloy to shift negatively and the corrosion tendency to increase. The increasing temperature leads to the decrease of activation energy of titanium alloy, which in turn results in the increase of corrosion current density and accelerated corrosion. The results of Nyquist curves confirmed that the radius of the capacitive arc decreased with the increase of temperature, indicating the deterioration of corrosion resistance. The CoCrMo alloy shows the same regularity as the titanium alloy in 0.9% NaCl, though no obvious regularity in 25% newborn bovine serum; this may be related to the complexity of the corrosion system.     

Electrochemical corrosion behavior of biomedical Ti–22Nb and Ti–22Nb–6Zr alloys in saline medium

The aims of this study were to investigate the effects of Zr addition and potentiodynamic polarization on the microstructure and corrosion resistance of Ti–22Nb and Ti–22Nb–6Zr alloy samples. The corrosion tests were carried out in 0.9% NaCl at 37 °C and neutral pH value, utilizing the OCP, potentiodynamic polarization, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. The results of XRD and optical microscopy indicated that the addition of Zr stabilized the β phase, which plays a crucial role in the corrosion resistance improvement of the Ti–22Nb–6Zr alloy. From the polarization curves, it can be seen that the alloys exhibited a wide passive region without the breakdown of the passive films and also low corrosion current densities. In addition, the values of the corrosion current densities and passive current densities decreased with the addition of 6 at% Zr into the Ti–22Nb alloy. The EIS results of these two alloy samples after 1‐h immersion in 0.9% NaCl solution, and being fitted by R_S(Q_PR_P) model, suggested that the corrosion resistance of the passive films improved with the addition of Zr and only a single passive film formed on the surfaces. However, two time constants were observed for the Ti–22Nb and Ti–22Nb–6Zr alloy samples after potentiodynamic polarization, the spectra of which can be fitted using the R_s(Q_o(R_o(Q_bR_b))) model. In addition, the corrosion resistance of the two alloy samples was reinforced significantly because of polarization when compared to the immersed samples. All these observations suggested a nobler electrochemical behavior of the titanium alloys with the addition of Zr element and after polarization.     

Design and characterization of selective laser-melted Ti6Al4V–5Cu alloy for dental implants

Ti6Al4V–5Cu alloys have potential biomedical applications due to their adequate antibacterial properties. However, the wear and corrosion properties of these alloys are also crucial for dental implants. In the present study, Ti6Al4V–5Cu alloys were fabricated by selective laser melting (SLM). The microstructure and composition of Ti6Al4V–5Cu alloys by SLM were evaluated. The wear properties of the alloys in the simulated saliva environment and the atmospheric environment, as well as the electrochemical properties in the simulated saliva environment, were systematically investigated. The results showed that the crystal structure of Ti6Al4V–5Cu alloys was mainly composed of α-Ti and Ti₂Cu. In the SLM process, no preferred texture was observed due to the complex direction of the heat flux. The formation of Ti₂Cu can improve the strength of the material and make the titanium copper alloy have higher microhardness. Ti6Al4V–5Cu alloy showed a satisfactory wear resistance in both wear media. The addition of Cu reduced the second-phase content of the alloy. Meanwhile, the number of microcells was reduced, which was a positive factor to improve the corrosion resistance of the alloys.     

Comparison between corrosion behaviour of implant alloys Ti6Al7Nb and Ti6Al4Zr in artificial saliva

The present paper investigates two different titanium alloys: Ti6Al7Nb – a well‐established implant biomaterial and Ti6Al4Zr – a relatively new titanium alloy. Roughness is evaluated with atomic force microscopy (AFM) and the hydrophilic/hydrophobic balance by contact angle measurements. Furthermore, an extensive characterization was done in order to evaluate and compare the electrochemical behaviour for both titanium alloys in artificial Fusayama and Afnor saliva, at different immersion times, and consisted of Tafel plots, cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Also, metals ions release was measured using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP‐MS). In both studied artificial saliva, Ti6Al4Zr alloy presents a better electrochemical behaviour according to corrosion rates from both electrochemical techniques and ICP‐MS.
