Abstract
AbstractThis study investigated the corrosion susceptibility of pure titanium under uric acid exposure for 7 days based on surface analysis. The prepared pure titanium specimens, exposed to different concentrations of uric acid, were examined for surface microstructure, surface element composition and surface wettability using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and static contact angle measurement, respectively. The corrosion behaviors of titanium specimens were measured by open-circuit potential (OCP), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization. The titanium ion release from the prepared specimens, which were immersed in Hank’s balanced salt solution (HBSS) containing different amount of uric acid, was measured by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). More irregular pitting holes were observed on titanium surfaces exposed to a high concentration of uric acid, and XPS analyses revealed that the amount of titanium dioxide (TiO2) decreased. Titanium surfaces pre-treated with high uric acid became more hydrophobic. Furthermore, the results of OCP and potentiodynamic polarization tests showed increased corrosion susceptibility of titanium samples, while EIS data indicated more active corrosion behavior of titanium materials. The high concentration of uric acid also induced titanium ion release. High concentration of uric acid negatively influenced the surface characteristics and corrosion properties of titanium materials, which destroyed the titanium oxide film barrier. High uric acid exposure increased corrosion susceptibility of pure titanium specimens and accelerated titanium ion release.
