Correlation between electronic and corrosion properties of the passive oxide film on nitinol.

چکیده
The oxide film (TiO(2)) was formed on Nitinol potentiostatically in an acetic acid solution. Deep understanding of electronic properties of this film is needed to predict long-term corrosion properties of Nitinol implant material in simulated body fluid conditions. The capacitance measurements were performed under depletion conditions to study electronic (semiconducting) properties. The space charge, formed at the solid|liquid interface, creates the barrier for the corrosion processes in aggressive (bio)environment. According to the results of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and Mott-Schottky analysis (MS), the passive film on Nitinol behaves as amorphous highly-doped n-type semiconductor. The values of electronic structure parameters (the flat-band potential, E(fb) and the carrier (donor) density, N(D)) were corrected for frequency dispersion.

متن کاملA Review on the Semiconducting Behavior of Passive Films Formed on Mg Alloys by Mott–Schottky Analysis
Mg alloys have a vast usage where weight reduction is really significant since they do the features really well for materials of ultra-light weight. However, Mg is inherently a reactive metal and its alloys generally possess quite weak corrosion resistance that widely restricts their technological usages, especially in some rough service conditions. Despite, many investigations on the passive a...

Electrochemical and surface properties of passive films formed on Alloy 600 in a thiosulphate solution were studied. Oxide films formed at various passive potentials contained a bilayer oxide, whose composition changed as a function of the applied potential resulting in a change in the impedance behaviour. Destabilisation of the oxide film at potentials within the passive region was observed, w...
