Abstract

Anodic oxidation treatment of commercial pure titanium was carried out at the voltage of 30, 50 V in 0.5 M H2SO4 solution so as to obtain the effects of the anodic potential on the surface characteristic and corrosion resistance of passive film. The morphology and corrosion resistance of the treated samples were investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscope (AFM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), potentiodynamic polarization curves and electrode impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results show that increasing anodic potential can significantly enhance the corrosion resistance of commercial pure titanium.
