Abstract

The alloy Ti-6Al-4V has been considered ideal for implant applications. Electrochemical tests were made to analyze their resistance and predictability to corrosion from green dust samples, SPS (Spark Plasma Sintering) samples and commercial alloying. The corrosion behavior in Ringeŕs and Hanḱs solution was evaluated by SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope). Fractal dimension were used to study corrosion behavior and corrosion predictability was observed by modeling studies.
