What is Corrosion Behavior of Cast Titanium with Reduced Surface Reaction Layer Made by a Face-coating Method about?

This study characterized the corrosion behavior of cast CP titanium made with a face-coating method. Wax patterns were coated with oxide slurry of Y(2)O(3) or ZrO(2) before investing with a MgO-based investment. Three surface preparations were tested: ground, sandblasted, and as-cast. Uncoated castings served as controls. Sixteen-hour open circuit potential (OCP) measurement, linear polarization and potentiodynamic cathodic polarization were performed in an aerated modified Tani-Zucchi synthetic saliva at 37 degrees C. Anodic polarization was conducted in the same deaerated medium. Polarization resistance (R(p)) and Tafel slopes were determined. Corrosion current density was calculated for each specimen. Results (n=4) were subjected to nonparametric statistical analysis (alpha=0.05). Cross sections of cast specimens were examined by optical microscopy. Energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) spot analysis was performed at various depths below the surface. The OCP stabilized within several hours for all the specimens. Apparent differences in anodic polarization behavior were observed among the different surfaces. A distinctive wide passive region followed by breakdown was seen on speci
