Abstract

The passive film behavior of Ti–6Al–4V ELI (Extra Low Interstitial) alloy after a chemical treatment followed by a thermal treatment was morphologically and electrochemically characterized. The surface morphological studies were carried out using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electron dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX), and Fourier Transformed-Infra Red (FT-IR) analysis to investigate the nucleation and growth of apatite on the chemically and thermally treated Ti–6Al–4V ELI alloy immersed for different durations in Hanks solution. Polarization and impedance spectroscopic (EIS) measurements were carried out in Hanks solution and the electrical parameters were obtained for the passive film using a non-linear least square fitting (NLLS) method.
