Corrosion resistance and biocompatibility of Ti–Ta alloys for biomedical applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
Corrosion resistance, wear resistance and biocompatibility of the studied Ti–Ta alloys with Ta contents of 10, 30 and 70 mass% together with the currently used metallic biomaterials pure titanium (Ti) and Ti–6Al–4V extra low interstitial (ELI) alloy were investigated for biomedical applications. Corrosion resistance was measured by an anodic polarization test using an automatic potentiostat in 5% HCl solution at 310 K. W ( f r s e o ©
