Abstract
The investigations carried out aimed to highlight the structural modifications occurred in the Ti-based shape memory alloys subject to electrocorrosion in Afnor artificial saliva. The behavior to corrosion was highlighted by fast electrochemical tests, mainly by dynamic potentiometry. From the microstructural analysis we noticed that the specimens of the two Ti-based shape memory alloys show traces of “pitting” corrosion on their surface of diverse sizes, a fact that will raise issues in terms of cytotoxicity due to the corrosion products released.
