Tarnish and Corrosion behavior of three Commercial dental amalgams namely Am.1, Am.2, Am.3, have been investigated by utilizing in vitro tests. The corrosion and/or dissolution rate of the three dental amalgams were studied in 0.9 wt% NaCl Solution, artificial saliva and Ringer's solution. Potentiodynamic polarization technique was employed to study cathodic and anodic polarization behavior, fr...

in order to increase the life span of implants, coatings such as bioglass are applied on implants' surfaces to prevent their corrosion in biological fluids. in this research, 45s5 bioglass coatings were applied on 316l stainless steel substrate by sol- gel method and coating's properties were examined by different analyses. according to the xrd results, an amorphous compound containing na2ca2si...

Recently, there is an interesting discussion that has transpired around the world about usage of plant extracts as corrosion inhibitors. We report to control in mild steel (MS) specimens a 1M HCl medium, Trochodendron aralioides (T. aralioides) extract was used economical green inhibitor. The various tests, namely, potentiodynamic polarization, weight loss measurements and electrochemical imped...

to improve the corrosion protection of copper metal, 0.01m concentration of 1h-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol (tat) was incorporated into the hybrid sol-gel monolayers containing 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (gptms) and tetraethoxysilane (teos). it was further subjected to hydrolysis and condensation reaction to form a sol-gel matrix. the tat-doped hybrid sol-gel coating was applied over the coppe...
