Electrochemical studies on the stability and corrosion resistance of titanium-based implant materials.

TLDR
The corrosion susceptibility of Ti, Ti-6A1-4V and Ti-45Ni was studied in a buffered saline solution using anodic polarisation and electrochemical impedance measurements and found to depend on the nature of the electrode material and the presence of phosphate anions in the saline-buffered solution.

The influence of niobium and vanadium on passivity of titanium-based implants in physiological solution.

TL;DR: Localized corrosion sensitivity of the Ti6Al4V alloy has been correlated to the dissolution of vanadium at the surface film/electrolyte interface coupled with generation of cation vacancies and their diffusion through the film as a part of the solid-state diffusion process.

Electrochemical and surface characterization of a nickel-titanium alloy.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the good corrosion properties of the NiTi alloy and the related promising biological response, as reported in literature, may be ascribed to the presence of mainly a TiO2-based surface layer and its specific properties, including the formation of a calcium-phosphate layer after exposure to a bioenvironment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of modification of oxide layer on NiTi stent corrosion resistance.

TL;DR: The uniformity of the oxide layer, rather than its thickness and composition, seems to be the predominant factor to explain the corrosion resistance improvement of NiTi alloys.
