After decades of developing strategies to minimize the corrosion of metallic biomaterials,
there is now an increasing interest to use corrodible metals in a number of medical device …

Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys have been intensively studied as biodegradable implant
materials, where their mechanical properties make them attractive candidates for …

Implants are exposed to a complex physiological environment that contains various organic
compounds, especially proteins. The adsorption of proteins has an immense influence on …

The paper reports a study on the influence of alloying nickel by left-hand side transition
metals (Fe, Mo, W) on the electrocatalytic activity in hydrogen evolution in an acidic …

The aim of this article is to review those aspects of corrosion behaviour that are most
relevant to the clinical application of implant alloys. The special modes of corrosion …

Ionic liquids with chemical formula 1, 3-dioctadecylimidazolium bromide and N-

The corrosion behaviour of AISI 316L, wrought Co–28Cr–6Mo and Ti–6Al–4V was studied
in aerated solutions of phosphate buffered saline (PBS) at various concentrations of bovine …

Abstract A 316L stainless steel (316L-SS) surface was electrochemically polished (EP) in an
electrolyte of a new chemical composition at different cell voltages, with the aim of improving …

Low-temperature thermochemical treatments are particularly suitable for use in the surface
hardening of austenitic stainless steels without impairing their corrosion resistance. In fact …

The synergistic effect of albumin and H 2 O 2 on corrosion of titanium alloy Ti6Al4V in
physiological saline was investigated with long-term immersion tests and electrochemical …
