The purpose of this study was to investigate the corrosion behavior of Ti-Ag alloys in artificial saliva solutions.
The corrosion behavior of experimental Ti-Ag alloys in artificial saliva was examined by means of potentiodynamic polarization measurements. The surface passive film formed was analyzed by means of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) methods.
The alloys were found to develop surface passive films after immersion for 1.8 x 10(3)s. In comparison with commercially pure Ti, the Ti-Ag alloys exhibited better corrosion resistance with lower anodic current densities, larger polarization resistances, and higher open-circuit potentials. The passive film formed was predominantly composed of TiO(2), as determined by XPS. When fluoride ions were added in the solution, the TiO(2) passive film was destroyed and Na(2)TiF(6) was formed.
Addition of Ag was found to be effective in reducing the corrosion current density and increasing the open circuit potential of titanium in artificial saliva environment. Addition of fluoride ions in the solution severely reduced the corrosion resistance of Ti-Ag alloys.
本研究旨在探究钛银合金在人工唾液溶液中的腐蚀行为。
通过动电位极化测量来检测实验性钛银合金在人工唾液中的腐蚀行为。采用X射线光电子能谱(XPS)和X射线衍射(XRD)方法对形成的表面钝化膜进行分析。
发现合金在浸泡1.8×10³秒后形成表面钝化膜。与商业纯钛相比,钛银合金表现出更好的耐腐蚀性,具有更低的阳极电流密度、更大的极化电阻和更高的开路电位。由XPS测定,形成的钝化膜主要由TiO₂组成。当在溶液中添加氟离子时,TiO₂钝化膜被破坏并形成Na₂TiF₆。
发现在人工唾液环境中添加银可有效降低钛的腐蚀电流密度并提高开路电位。在溶液中添加氟离子会严重降低钛银合金的耐腐蚀性。
