Anodic Polarization Behavior of Ti-Ni and Ti-6A 1-4 V in Simulated Physiological SolutionsMetal Science and Standards Division, National Bureau of Standards, Washington, D.C. 20234
Metal Science and Standards Division, National Bureau of Standards, Washington, D.C. 20234 Anodic polarization measurements made in Hanks' physiological solution at 37°C and a pH of 7.4 show titanium materials to be the most passive of the following metals: titanium, Ti-6A1-4V, Ti-Ni (memory alloy), MP35N (Co-Ni-Cr-Mo), Co-Cr-Mo, 316L stainless steel, and nickel. The influence of the amino acids, cysteine, and tryptophan on the corrosion behavior of Ti-Ni and Ti-6A1-4V was studied. Cysteine caused a lower breakdown potential for Ti-Ni, but it did not affect the breakdown of Ti-6A1-4V, although an increase in current density for Ti-6A1-4V was observed. Tryptophan produced no significant effects.
