Electrochemical Behaviour of Ti-Mo Alloys for Medical Application in Biological Solution

Abstract

Nowadays, primordial concern represent population health with all materials that are used in medical applications. It were obtained three alloys of titanium with addition of elements like molybdenum, zirconium and tantalum, in a vacuum arc melting furnace (VAR), in argon atmosphere. These alloys were investigated in biological solution, similar with to the human body by electrochemical study method (linear and cyclic polarization). Results revealed that it possesses a good behaviour which does not influence the human body, with future applications in medical field.
