Corrosion Behavior of Copper in the Presence of Proteins

چکیده
Copper-bearing intrauterine devices(Cu-IUDs) are being increasingly used all over the world. However, the dissolution of copper in the presence of proteins is not well characterized. Here, with open circuit potential, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements and potentiodynamic polarization test, the corrosion behavior of copper samples in different single-protein simulated uterine solutions was researched. Protein increased the corrosion rate of copper.

The Effect of Simple Shear Extrusion on the Corrosion Behavior of Copper
In this study, corrosion behavior of copper that was deformed by Simple Shear Extrusion (SSE) method was investigated in 3%wt NaCl solution. Modified Williamson-Hall method, applied on the X-ray diffraction patterns of the samples, showed that increase in the number of SSE passes led to increasing in the dislocation density in the copper samples. Moreover, such deformed samples exh...
