Abstract
AbstractIn this study, we address challenges in the biocompatibility of nickel‐based (NiCr) alloys, prevalent in the dental industry, due to toxic metal ion release impacting corrosion resistance and cytotoxicity. Employing magnetron sputtering and cathodic cage plasma nitriding (CCPN), a duplex plasma treatment (DPT) is introduced to the NiCr alloy. The novel approach enhances surface morphology, notably reducing ion leakage compared with untreated samples. Specifically, the CCPN‐TiN‐treated sample significantly improves corrosion resistance and minimizes metal ion leakage. This transformative DPT emerges as a promising solution for surface modification, particularly mitigating toxic ion leaching in aggressive electrolytes. This research demonstrates a major stride in enhancing NiCr alloy biocompatibility, emphasizing the vital role of innovative surface modification techniques for biomedical applications and challenges.
