The corrosion rate of powder-metallurgy nickel in a 3% HCl + 5% NaCl solution is measured by gravimetric, volumetric, analytical, and electrochemical (polarization and impedance measurements) methods. A method of measuring the corrosion rate of sintered materials per unit visible or true surface, based on the analysis of frequency dependence of electrochemical impedance, is described. Limitations on using the methods of measuring the corrosion rate for porous materials are discussed.     

生物可降解梯度多孔Fe-3Ag/HA复合材料的制备与性能研究

采用粉末冶金技术制备梯度多孔Fe-3Ag/HA复合材料,研究了造孔剂分布、烧结温度、HA含量对梯度多孔Fe-3Ag/HA复合材料的孔隙度和力学性能的影响。观察了梯度多孔Fe-3Ag/HA复合材料的显微组织及腐蚀后的微观形貌,测量了梯度多孔Fe-3Ag/HA复合材料的物相组成和耐腐蚀性能。结果表明,随着造孔剂和HA含量增加,烧结产物的孔隙度增加,抗压强度减少。提高造孔剂含量,梯度多孔Fe-3Ag/HA复合材料的耐腐蚀性能明显降低;提高HA含量,该复合物的耐腐蚀性能比梯度多孔Fe-3Ag略有增加,但是其腐蚀速率明显高于梯度多孔纯Fe试样。在模拟人工体液中浸泡3天后,梯度多孔Fe-3Ag/HA复合材料比梯度多孔Fe-3Ag合金表面沉积了更多的HA,这表明HA相有诱导模拟人工体液中Ca和P离子沉积的能力,与Fe基合金相比该复合材料具有更好的生物相容性。     

Corrosion of mild steel in porous media

The corrosion process in large-particle porous media is investigated with particular reference to corrosion in bulk carriers (ships). Examples of large-particle porous media include raw materials such as coal and iron ore which typically have particle sizes ranging up to approximately 50 mm diameter. It is proposed that the corrosion process is dominated by finer particles which co-exist with the larger particles. A mathematical model of the corrosion process is developed and used to estimate corrosion rates. These are shown to compare well with experimental results. The analysis indicates that to minimise corrosion it is desirable to maintain the moisture content of porous media in contact with mild steel either to less than 50%, or to more than 80%, of the maximum water holding capacity of the media.

Corrosion behaviour of porous Ni-free Ti-based bulk metallic glass produced by spark plasma sintering in Hanks' solution

Porous bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) are promising biomedical materials to be used for surgical implants. Here we report on successful formation of porous Ni-free Ti-based BMGs with a diameter exceeding 15 mm by spark plasma sintering the mixture of the gas-atomized Ti-based (Ti₄₅Zr₁₀Cu₃₁Pd₁₀Sn₄) glassy alloy powder and solid salt powder, followed by leaching treatment into water to eliminate the salt phase. Corrosion behaviour of the produced porous Ti-based BMGs was investigated in Hanks' solution. The potentiodynamic polarization curves showed that the anodic current density in the porous Ti-based BMGs slowly increased during anodic polarization, suggesting the crevice corrosion.     

A study on porous super austenitic stainless steel coating for improvement of bone ingrowth

In this study, the prostheses were provided with the bone ingrowth site by coating the super stainless steel powder on the same substrate (S32050) using plasma spraying method. Plasma current and powder feed rate varied in this study based on the optimum conditions of previous experiments. The optimum conditions for satisfying the requirements of the porous coatings were found. The characteristics of the coatings were observed according to the experimental parameters. It was found that plasma current influenced the chemical composition (the oxides, Cr component), melting and flattening degree of the sprayed particle (surface roughness, thickness of the splat, pores) and corrosion -resistance. The powder feed rate also influenced the coating thickness and efficiency. The amount of Cr was increased, but Ni, Mo, Fe were decreased with plasma current. An increase of Cr in the coating surface corresponded to an increase in the amount of the formed oxides. The coated specimen in 400A had a high corrosion-resistance owing to a dense coating. The coated specimen in 500A formed many types of oxides. In 300A current, the coating was rough with many pores, and corrosion-resistance of the coating showed a large variation according to the oxidation and compositional change. Specifically at 100 g/min powder feed rate in a 300A current, the coating was rough and porous, nevertheless, it had high corrosion resistance.     

Application of Electrochemical Impedance Method to Studying Corrosion of Porous Powder Steels

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (10⁴–10^–3 Hz) and weighing methods are applied to studying the corrosion behavior of powder austenitic 316L stainless steel with a porosity = 15, 20, and 38% and compact steel of the same composition in a 3% HCl + 5% NaCl solution and oil pool water (pH 6.0; total mineralization 184.8 g/l, preferentially chlorides of Na, Ca, and Mg). Hodographs and phase angles of the electrode impedance are analyzed for high ac frequencies. The procedure of corrosion rate determination for powder steel from impedance data is described. The corrosion rate of powder steel calculated to the geometric surface area of a sample is shown to increase in acid and neutral chloride solutions with an increase in the porosity of samples from 15 to 38%, and, at 20%, with the exposure of samples to the electrolytes (from 2 to 120 h). Advantages of the impedance method over the weighing method are demonstrated for determination of the corrosion rate of porous powder steels. Based on impedance measurements, the specific surface areas of powder steel samples are assessed.     

Preparation and characterization of porous titanium using space-holder technique

Titanium-based porous materials can be used in structural applications and medical implants because of their excellent mechanical properties at elevated temperatures, good corrosion resistance and wonderful biocompatibility. However, most of the methods used to produce the po-rous metal can only give limited porosity and uncontrollable pore morphologies. In the present study, a newly developed method of powder metallurgy using the space-holder technique was used to fabricate porous titanium with controllable porosity. The morphological features and mechanical properties of the products were fully investigated. The results show that the porosity is in the range of 55%-75%, and the mean pore size, with an average sphericity of～0.72, is 600 μm The plateau stresses vary between 10 MPa and 35 MPa. As predicted by the Gibson-Ashby model, the plateau stress decreases with increasing porosity.     

孔结构对Ni3Al金属间化合物多孔材料抗腐蚀性能的影响（英文）

采用元素粉末反应合成的方法并用尿素作为造孔剂制备Ni3Al金属间化合物多孔材料。用电化学和浸泡实验表征Ni3Al金属间化合物多孔材料在6 mol/L KOH溶液中的抗腐蚀行为。系统研究孔结构对材料抗腐蚀性能的影响。研究结果表明:孔隙率较大的Ni3Al金属间化合物多孔材料较孔隙率较小的样品腐蚀更严重,这是由于孔隙率较大的样品具有复杂的联通孔结构以及较大的比表面积。然而,材料的腐蚀速率与比表面积并不成正比,这是因为随着孔隙率的增大,材料的孔径大小、孔径分布以及孔隙形状都随之变化。不同孔隙率大小的Ni3Al金属间化合物多孔材料在碱溶液中均表现出较好的抗腐蚀性能。     

Co–Cr–Mo-based composite reinforced with bioactive glass

The powder metallurgy (PM) technology was used to produce a porous Co–Cr–Mo-based composite material with the bioactive glass (S2) addition of 5 wt.%, 10 wt.% and 15 wt.%. The results show that the addition of bioglass to the matrix of Co–Cr–Mo alloy, as well as rotary cold repressing and heat treatment of sintered specimens can cause significant changes in the microstructure, mechanical and corrosion properties of composite materials in comparison with the pure porous Co–Cr–Mo alloy. A significant increase in the hardness, yield strength and corrosion resistance of the composites was observed with increasing the bioglass volume fraction. Although all PM samples are in a passive state, the higher corrosion resistances were obtained in the case of the composites with bioglass additions. Superior mechanical properties were achieved in the case of composite with 10 wt.% of bioglass.

Microstructure,Mechanical Properties and Corrosion Behavior of Porous Mg-6 wt.% Zn Scaffolds for Bone Tissue Engineering

Porous Mg-based scaffolds have been extensively researched as biodegradable implants due to their attractive biological and excellent mechanical properties. In this study, porous Mg-6 wt.% Zn scaffolds were prepared by powder metallurgy using ammonium bicarbonate particles as space-holder particles. The effects of space-holder particle content on the microstructure, mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of the Mg-6 wt.% Zn scaffolds were studied. The mean porosity and pore size of the open-cellular scaffolds were within the range 6.7-52.2% and 32.3-384.2 µm, respectively. Slight oxidation was observed at the grain boundaries and on the pore walls. The Mg-6 wt.% Zn scaffolds were shown to possess mechanical properties comparable with those of natural bone and had variable in vitro degradation rates. Increased content of space-holder particles negatively affected the mechanical behavior and corrosion resistance of the Mg-6 wt.% Zn scaffolds, especially when higher than 20%. These results suggest that porous Mg-6 wt.% Zn scaffolds are promising materials for application in bone tissue engineering.     

Influence of Pore Characteristics on Electrochemical and Biological Behavior of Ti Foams

This study reports on titanium (Ti) foams produced using the powder metallurgy technique. During the investigation, the cross-sectional area and perimeter distributions of the pores within the foam were measured. Metallographic image processing analysis software combined with scanning electron microscopic images demonstrated that the pore size and circularity were affected by varying the volume percentage of the space-holder material. The corrosion resistance was investigated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and cyclic polarization tests. MG-63 osteoblast-like cells were used to study the biocompatibility and to evaluate the cell attachment, viability, and alkaline phosphatase activity. Analytical results indicated that 50 and 60 vol.% samples were suitable for biomedical applications. Because of the high degree of interconnectivity in the 60 and 70% porosity samples, the electrochemical parameters produced similar results. The corrosion rate of the porous samples showed that the amount of dissolved Ti was at an acceptable level that can be ejected by the body. Applying a fluoridated hydroxyapatite coating significantly increased the osteoblast cell functions on the porous surface.

Effect of additive on corrosion resistance of NiFe2O4 ceramics as inert anodes

In order to improve the corrosion resistance of NiFe2O4 ceramics as inert anode, additive V2O5 was added to raw materials NiO and Fe2O3. The inert anodes of nickel-ferrite ceramics were prepared by powder metaUurgic method and the static corrosion rate in Na3AlF6-Al2O3 was determined by mass loss measurement. The effect of V2O5 on sintering property and corrosion resistance was studied. The results show that V2O5 can promote the grain to develop completely and improve sintering property. EDS results show the reaction product Ni2FeVO6 distributes along the grain boundary. The corrosion tests show that V2O5 is beneficial to improving corrosion resistance remarkably. The reasons that V2O5 can improve the corrosion resistance must be V2O5 promoting the gains to develop completely and Ni2FeVO6 distributes along the grain boundary. The stable structure can control the chemical dissolution of ceramics anode and the reinforced grain boundary can control the grain-boundary corrosion rate.     

High-temperature oxidation and aqueous corrosion performance of ferritic, vacuum-sintered stainless steels prealloyed with Si

The corrosion behavior at high-temperature and the aqueous corrosion behavior of sintered stainless steels manufactured from non-commercial prealloyed powder (434L with 2% Si) are studied and their results are compared with those of sintered stainless steels manufactured from commercial 434L powder, that has lower Si content. Both types of powders have been sintered in vacuum at three different temperatures, so materials with different porosity levels have been obtained. Several oxidation tests have been carried out from 700 to 1000 °C. Long-term experiments have proven the better oxidation resistance of 434L + 2% Si steels. Electrochemical measurements of the corrosion rate show a decrease on this parameter caused by the increase of Si-content on powders.
