The long-life success of dental implants relies on the interaction between the biomaterial and oral environment, always involving electrochemical reactions, mechanical stresses and mechanical wear. In order to improve the ...

In this work, the corrosion behavior of NiTiNb shape memory alloys (SMA) in aqueous medium containing chloride ions was characterized. The study was performed in alloys of six different compositions, which were melted in ...

Metallic biomaterials have been used for biomedical applications, such as cardiovascular, orthopaedics and orthodontics, due to properties. However, although their corrosion resistance these materials can be corrode when ...

Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) electrolysers are a good alternative for storing energy produced by renewable sources such as wind and solar. PEM electrolysers convert surplus energy into hydrogen that will later be burned ...

O objetivo neste estudo foi avaliar in vitro a influência da liga Ti-35Nb-7Zr e de seus elementos básicos, submetidos ou não ao processo de oxidação, na atividade de osteoblastos e na formação de biofilmes monotípicos. As ...
