Dental alloys as CoCrMo, SS 316L stainless steel and NiTi were electrochemically investigated in artificial Fusayama saliva, unmodified and modified with two different concentrations of natrium fluoride. Electrochemical tests include measurements of open circuit, measurements of linear polarization, potentiodinamic polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectra. The best electrochemi...

The corrosion inhibition of AISI309 austenitic stainless steel by 2,2'-Bipyridyl in 0.5M H 2 SO 4 at 298K was studied using the mass loss’ method, the potentiodynamic polarization (Tafel), the linear polarization (LRP) and the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results showed a mixed inhibition mode and an increase in the charge transfer resistance, due to inhibitor molecules’ ad...

In this study, electrochemical behaviour of passive films formed on AISI 316L stainless steel (AISI 316L) in three acidic solutions concentrations (0.3, 0.6, and 0.9M HNO3) under open circuit potential conditions were evaluated by potentiodynamic polarization, Mott–Schottky analysis and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. The potentiodynamic polarization results showed that...

The objective of this work was to demonstrate the effect of fluoride and propolis extract on the corrosion behavior of commercially pur titanium (cp-Ti grade 2) in artificial saliva. The inhibition studies were approved out on cp-Ti as dental implant in Fusayama-Meyer with the propolis extract using potentiodynamic polarization and Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS). Parameters, such ...

OBJECTIVE (1) To evaluate the corrosion resistance of four different orthodontic archwires and to determine the effect of 0.5% NaF (simulating high fluoride-containing toothpaste of about 2250 ppm) on corrosion resistance of these archwires. (2) To assess whether surface roughness (Ra) is the primary factor influencing the corrosion resistance of these archwires. MATERIALS AND METHODS Four di...

This paper focused on the characterization of electrochemical behavior of a martensitic stainless steel in the acidic solutions. For this purpose, electrochemical parameters were derived from potentiodynamic polarization, Mott Schottky analysis and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. The potentiodynamic polarization results showed that corrosion current density of AISI 420 ...

Co-deposition of zinc metal matrix with ZnO composite was fabricated from electrolytic chloride based coating consisting of 20-40g/L ZnO particle. The resulting composite coatings were characterized using high optic microscope (OPM). The corrosion resistance properties of Zn-ZnO composite coatings were measure using linear polarization in 3.5% NaCl solution. The variation of amount of ZnO %wt. ...

Abstract: Polarization converters play an important role in antennas and radar. Electromagnetic band gap materials enable manufacture of polarization converters which are : low cost, low profile, light weight and have large bandwidth. In this paper mushroom-like electromagnetic band gap materials are considered for polarization converters. The theory is reviewed. A simple design procedure is de...

In this paper, a new kind of carbon steel (CS) and stainless steel (SS) galvanic sensor system was developed for the study of rebar corrosion in different pore solution conditions. Through the special design of the CS and SS electronic coupons, the electronic resistance (ER) method and zero resistance ammeter (ZRA) technique were used simultaneously for the measurement of both the galvanic curr...
