Oxygen Plasma Treatment of Zinc for Implants by Ambika Sharma is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This study investigates the modification of pure zinc surfaces using oxygen plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII-O2) to tune the degradation rate for biomedical applications. The results indicate that longer implantation times and specific voltage settings lead to a reduced corrosion rate, with the most effective treatment showing a corrosion rate of approximately 78 µm/year compared to 135 µm/year for untreated samples. The findings suggest that PIII-O2 can enhance the surface properties of zinc, making
