This article aimed to analyze the effect of the thermal oxidation in the corrosion resistance and the hardness properties of TiO 2 nanostructures obtained by the anodizing process in the HF/H 3 PO 4 solution . TiO 2 nanostructures on Ti6Al4V obtained by anodizing processes were subjected to thermal oxidation (TO) treatments over a temperature range from 500 ºC to 620 ºC for 2 hours. Surface morphology was evaluated by using scanning electron microscopy; the hardness properties of TiO 2 nanostructures were obtained by Nanoindentation measurements using a Berkovich probe with a tip radius of 150 mm. The corrosion behavior of the samples was studied using potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results showed that TiO 2 nanostructures, modified by thermal oxidation, increased the surface properties of hardness and corrosion resistance, compared to the substrate, maintaining its mixed or tubular structure. On the other hand, a transformation of nanotubes to nanopores after 600ºC was evidenced, generating significant changes in the mechanical properties of these structures.
