The Influence of Microstructure on the Passive Layer Chemistry and Corrosion Resistance for Some Titanium-Based Alloys.

ABSTRACT: The effect of microstructure and chemistry on the kinetics of passive layer growth and passivity breakdown of some Ti-based alloys, namely Ti-6Al-4V, Ti-6Al-7Nb and TC21 alloys, was studied. The rate of pitting corrosion was evaluated using cyclic polarization measurements. Chronoamperometry was applied to assess the passive layer growth kinetics and breakdown. Microstructure influence on the uniform corrosion rate of these alloys was also investigated employing dynamic electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (DEIS). Corrosion studies were performed in 0.9% NaCl solution at 37 °C, and the obtained results were compared with ultrapure Ti (99.99%). The different phases of the microstructure were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Chemical composition and chemistry of the corroded surfaces were studied using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis. For all studied alloys, the microstructure consisted of ? matrix, which was strengthened by ? phase. The highest and the lowest values of the ? phase's volume fraction were recorded for TC21 and Ti-Al-Nb alloys, respectively. The susceptibility of the investigated alloys toward pitting corrosion was enhanced following the sequence: Ti-6Al-7Nb < Ti-6Al-4V << TC21. Ti-6Al-7Nb alloy recorded the lowest pitting corrosion resistance (Rpit) among studied alloys, approaching that of pure Ti. The obvious changes in the microstructure of these alloys, together with XPS findings, were adopted to interpret the pronounced variation in the corrosion behavior of these materials.

Project description:Magnesium-based alloys are the most widely used materials for degradable metallic implants and have considerable potential for bone applications owing to their excellent stimulating effect on osteogenesis. However, their high corrosion rate limits their structural stability and causes oxygen deficiency and an excessive increase in the pH around the defect area during bone healing. Magnesium oxides, which are the main corrosion products of Mg, are nontoxic materials with useful effects on new bone formation and pH neutralization. Metal-phenolic networks were introduced recently as a cost-effective and efficient surface modifier and were fabricated by deposition of nanosized metal oxides on different types of substrates using the chemical reaction between phenolic groups and metallic ions. In this study, magnesium oxide films were formed successfully on a Mg-based substrate using Mg-phenolic networks. The effects of various coating parameters on the surface morphology, corrosion resistance, degradation behavior, wettability, and osteocompatibility of degradable metallic materials after surface modification with Mg-phenolic networks were thoroughly investigated for the first time. The results showed that the initial concentration of Mg ions was the main parameter affecting the corrosion resistance, which was almost as much as 3 times that of uncoated samples. Additionally, cytotoxicity and viability assessment and observation of the morphological changes in bonelike cells showed that the in vitro osteocompatibility was significantly enhanced by coatings with Mg concentrations of 2.4-3.6 mg mL-1. Finally, in vivo animal studies using the rat calvarial defect model confirmed that the proposed coating method mitigated the formation of gas cavities around the implantation area by reducing the corrosion rate of the Mg-based implant. The nanosized metal oxides produced by the Mg-phenolic network significantly improved the biodegradability and osteocompatibility of Mg alloys, suggesting a potential approach to advancing the clinical application of Mg alloys.
