【 摘 要 】

Titanium alloys are widely used for implant material due to high biocompatibility properties. It is well known that the corrosion resistance of titanium alloys is better than other metallic materials. However, if the alloys are applied for unknown condition such as wire in orthodontic application, the fluctuating temperature is important to be considered as parameter which influences on corrosion rate. In this study, the effect of fluctuating temperature on corrosion behavior of TNTZ was investigated. Two conditions of TNTZ were used in this study, i.e., Ti-29Nb-13Ta-4.6Zr aging treatment (AT) and TNTZ solution treatment (ST). For comparison, the commercial Ti6Al4V ELI was also used in this study. The corrosion rates of the samples were characterized in artificial saliva on fluctuating temperatures range between 10°C and 50°C by immersion testing. The results showed that the lowest corrosion rate for each variation of temperature was TNTZ ST. The corrosion process seems to decrease the hardness of TNTZ up to 26 VHN. The result also showed that the corrosion rate of TNTZ is much lower than that of Ti6Al4V in all cycles. Moreover, the hardness of Ti6Al4V decreases more significantly i.e., up to 77.2 VHN. The artificial saliva with fluctuating temperature induces corrosion process and decreases the hardness of the alloys.
