Corrosion behavior and surface characterization of tantalum implanted TiNi alloy

Surface characteristics and corrosion resistance of biodegradable magnesium alloy ZK60 modified by Fe ion implantation and deposition

“…It is noted that the concentration of O exhibits as an approximate Gaussian distribution in the transition zone with the maximum of 17.9%. It is believed that oxygen was introduced during the ion implantation because of the non-ultra-high vacuum (UHV) implantation conditions in our MEVAA instrument as has been found in Nb, Ta or Zr implanted NiTi [16,[24][25][26]. Fe and Mg oxides may form in the transition zone, which will be clarified in our further studies.…”

Corrosion resistance of Ti modified by chitosan–gold nanoparticles for orthopedic implantation

“…Avoiding these limitations, surface modification of implant materials is usually required to increase biocompatibility, overcome damage and to resist the physiological reaction between the surrounding tissue and implants [16][17][18][19]. Coating with bioactive material films is one of the most important techniques used for surface modification, such as coating with hexamethyldisilazane [20], calcium phosphate [21], bioactive glass [22], and various proteins [23].…”

Surface characteristics, nano-indentation and corrosion behavior of Nb implanted NiTi alloy

“…Oxidation treatment [3,4], various coatings [5][6][7], laser melting [8] and ion implantation [9][10][11] have been performed on NiTi alloy to improve its mechanical and electrochemical properties. The critical challenge for coatings focuses on the binding strength because of the problem of delamination.…”
