Corrosion resistance examinations of Ti6Al4V alloy with the use of potentiodynamic method in ringer's and artificial saliva solutions

The research results of corrosion resistance of the Ti6Al4V alloy in the simulated body fluids (SBF) are presented. The polished specimens have shown better corrosion resistance than grinded surfaces in both liquids. The artificial saliva has revealed more aggressive test solution than Ringer's solution. The pitting tendency has been observed in Ringer's solution for grinded specimens.
