Abstract
The present paper put in evidence the influence of applying different heat treatments on some metallic materials such as cobalt and titanium alloys, usualy used for medical applications. The alloys were cobalt base alloy type CoCrMo (22%Cr, 6%Mo, rest Co), in nontreated state, quenching at 1100°C /1h/aer, quenching at 1100°C /1h/air+ sensiblizing at 550°/4h/ air, 600°/4h/air and/or 650°C/4h/air and titanium base alloys - alloy TiMo0.3Ni0,7 (0.23%Mo, 0.72%Ni, Ti rest), alloy TiAl5Fe2V2Mo1,5(1.52%Mo, 5.15%Al, 2.56%Fe, 2.35%V, Ti rest), each of them in non treated state, annealing at 1050°C/1h/air and annealing at 850°C/1h/air. Corrosion tests were made at potentiostat-galvanostat AUTOLAB, in Ringer solution (for both alloys) and NaCl infusion solution (only for cobalt base alloy) by drawing the polarization curves. Our conclusion is that by applying correct and proper heat treatments to both at cobalt alloys and in titanium alloys there is an improving of the corrosion resistance.
