Effects of zirconium and nitrogen plasma immersion ion implantation on the electrochemical corrosion behavior of Mg–Y–RE alloy in simulated body fluid and cell culture medium
نویسندگان
چکیده
The effects of dual Zr & N plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII) on the corrosion behavior of WE43Mg alloy are evaluated in simulated body fluid (SBF) and cell culture medium (cDMEM). Zr & N PIII improves the corrosion resistance of WE43 which exhibits smaller icorr, larger R1 & R2, smaller CPE2, and larger phase angle maxima in SBF and cDMEM. The Zr & N PIII WE43 samples exhibit 12-folds decrease in icorr in SBF and 71-folds decrease in icorr with near capacitive EIS in cDMEM. Analysis of the corrosion products reveals calcium phosphate. 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
