Abstract

Application of equiatomic NiTi alloys in cardiovascular system has been expanding over last decades. By modification of chemical and phase composition the limit of biocompatibility has been reached. Further development is connected with surface modification. Among many methods of surface treatment of NiTi alloys, passivation has been often chosen as the first choice method. Resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion of the surface modified NiTi alloy in artificial plasma was investigated by means of electrochemical methods (potentidynamic polarization and chronoamperometric method respectively). The obtained results indicate that the proposed surface treatment ensures good corrosion resistance in artificial plasma and can be applied in shaping final functional properties of NiTi alloys used in cardiovascular system.
