Nickel can cause severe allergic reactions. Therefore, efforts are made to reduce the content of nickel in austenitic stainless steels (SS). Powder metallurgy (PM) techniques can produce this steel in a highly affordable way. A novel low-nickel high-nitrogen austenitic powder metallurgy PM stainless steel is investigated in terms of corrosion behavior. Nitrogen, because of its gammagenic effect, is the applied sintering atmosphere. Two sintering processes are applied by controlling the sinter-cooling rate (furnace- and water-cooling). This material shows an austenitic microstructure free of precipitates only after the water-cooling process. The electrochemical behavior in two simulated body fluids—phosphate buffered saline (PBS) solution and Ringer solution—are studied. Corrosion behavior is evaluated by means of anodic polarization measurements and cyclic polarization curves. In addition, Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy is used to evaluate the corrosion resistance of this steel in PBS at open circuit potential and at 100 mV above corrosion potential. The water-cooling process promotes better corrosion behavior in simulated body fluids for high nitrogen and low nickel than a conventional (high nickel) austenitic PM SS 316LN type.

Sol Gel Process

In this work, a single-layer TiO2–ZrO2 thin film is deposited on the AISI 316L austenitic stainless steel by the sol–gel process and the dip coating method to improve its corrosion resistance properties. For the sol preparation, titanium isopropoxide and zirconium butoxide are used as the precursors, yttrium acetate hydrate is used for the ZrO2 stabilization, i-propanol as the solvent, nitric acid as the catalyst, acetylacetone as the chelating agent, and the distilled water for the hydrolysis. The deposited films are annealed at 400 °C or 600 °C. Morphology and phase composition of the sol–gel TiO2–ZrO2 films and powders are analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equipped with EDX detector and X-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively. The thickness of the sol–gel TiO2–ZrO2 films deposited on the stainless steel is determined by glow discharge optical emission spectrometry (GD-OES). The corrosion behavior of the stainless steel, coated by amorphous films, is evaluated in 3 wt% NaCl and 0.5 mol dm−3 HCl by potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. It is found that the sol–gel TiO2–ZrO2 films with the amorphous structure, deposited by the sol–gel process, and calcined at 400 °C significantly enhance the corrosion properties of AISI 316L in both chloride media.

Fast degradation rates in the physiological environment constitute the main limitation for magnesium alloys used in biodegradable hard tissue implants. In this work, the corrosion behavior of AZ91 magnesium alloy in simulated body fluids (SBF) was systematically investigated to determine its performance in a physiological environment. The influence of the main constituent phases on the corrosion behavior was studied by in situ visual observation and scanning electron microscopy. Energy dispersive x-ray spectrometry and Fourier transfer infrared spectroscopy revealed that both calcium and magnesium phosphates are present in the corroded products besides magnesium oxide. Electrochemical methods including open circuit potential evolution and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were used to investigate the mechanism. The corresponding electrode controlled processes and evolution of the corrosion products layer were discussed. The degradation rate after immersion in SBF for seven days was calculated from both the weight loss and hydrogen evolution methods.

Abstract A new duplex 25Cr-3Ni-7Mn-0.66 N alloy was prepared in a vacuum arc re-melting furnace and characterized by metallographic and EPMA methods. Its corrosion behavior was investigated by potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and a Mott-Schottky (M-S) analysis in artificial seawater at room temperature and compared with those of super and normal commercial duplex stainless steel (SDSS and DSS). No significant difference in the open circuit potentials and pitting potentials was observed. Its passive film current density lies between those of SDSS and DSS. This was confirmed by EIS analysis. A pit attack was observed on the δ-phase for all duplex samples, because the PREN16 of the δ-phase was lower than that of the γ-phase. From the Mott-Schottky analysis, the passive films were found to be composed of bi-layer structures, a p-type semiconductor inner layer, and a n-type semiconductor outer layer. The degree of defect as well as the effect of nitrogen in passive film layer are discussed with respect to the point defect model.

Titanium alloys and stainless steel 316L are still the most widely used biomaterials for implants despite emerging new materials for this application. There is still someambiguity in corrosion behavior of metals in simulated body fluid (SBF). This paper aims at investigating the corrosion behavior of commercially pure titanium (CP-Ti), Ti–6Al–4V and 316LVM stainless steel (316LVM) in SBF (Hank’s solution) at37 ºC using the cyclic polarization test. Corrosion behavior was described in terms of breakdown potential, the potential and rate ofcorrosion, localized corrosion resistance, andbreakdown repassivation. The effects of anodizing on CP-Ti samples and the passivation on the 316LVM were studied in detail. It was shown that CP-Ti exhibited superior corrosion properties compared to Ti–6Al–4V and 316LVM.

Plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII) of nitrogen is low-temperature surface technology which enables the improvement of tribological properties without a deterioration of the corrosion behavior of austenitic stainless steels. In this paper the corrosion properties of PIII-treated AISI 316L stainless steel surfaces are evaluated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), potentiodynamic polarization (PP) and exposure immersion tests (all carried out in the 0.9 wt. % NaCl solution at 37 ± 0.5 °C) and compared with a non-treated surface. Results of the three performed independent corrosion tests consistently confirmed a significant increase in the corrosion resistance after two doses of PIII nitriding.
