The corrosion and tribocorrosion of tungsten in 0.01 M H2SO4, without and with the presence of lactic acid and phosphoric acid as chelating agents was studied here. ...
Pure Magneli Ti4O7 nanotube arrays (NTA) were successfully fabricated by reducing TiO2 NTA with hydrogen at 850 degrees C for 30 minutes. The microstructure, composition and electrochemical behavior of the prepared Ti4O7 NTA were characterized by means of ...
The mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of 316 L stainless steel fabricated using the Laser Engineered Net Shaping (LENS) technique have been studied. The crack-free, full density samples made using SS316L alloy powder and the LENS technique are ...
In the present study, a forged CoCrMo (ISO 5832-12) has been subjected to pulsed plasma treatment in a N-2/H-2 atmosphere at low temperatures (below 500 A degrees C). This treatment resulted in the formation of a layer composed by dispersed chromium nitrid ...
Al-Cr-Fe complex metallic alloys are new intermetallic phases with low surface energy, low friction, and high corrosion resistance down to very low pH values (0-2). Flow microcapillary plasma mass spectrometry under potentiostatic control was used to chara ...
Tribocorrosion of Al-Si-Cu-Mg alloys was investigated in 0.05 M NaCl and 0.1 M NaNO3 solutions under severe sliding and controlled electrochemical conditions. A simple galvanic coupling model was developed to analyze and quantitatively predict the evolutio ...
Normal micro-movements at the bone-implant interface originate fretting-corrosion processes, thus releasing wear debris from the bone and metallic devices and compromising the fixability of the implant. Titanium aluminum nitride (Ti1-xAlxN) coatings have b ...
The effect of body fluids inorganic species on element-specific dissolution of a Mg-Y-Rare earth elements (RE) alloy was investigated by flow microcapillary plasma mass spectrometry. A new important aspect of this method is the online monitoring of precipi ...
The corrosion behaviour and the wear ranking of biomedical high carbon (HC) and low carbon (LC) CoCrMo alloys sliding against an alumina ball in four different simulated body fluids [NaCl and phosphate buffered solutions (PBS) with and without albumin] has ...
Electrochemical and friction measurements during unidirectional sliding tests are used to monitor and to evaluate the tribocorrosion behavior of a passivating material. Tribocorrosion is the interplay between chemical, electrochemical, and mechanical proce ...
