Corrosion and Tribocorrosion Kinetics of Al-based Concentrated Alloys in Aqueous Sodium Chloride Solution
… of Al alloys, which ultimately led to high tribocorrosion resistance. Specifically, the effects of testing condition (e.g. sliding frequency) and alloying effects (e.g. Mn and Mo) on the corrosion and tribocorrosion behavior of Al-based binary and ternary solid solutions were studied. To …

Multiphysics Modelling on the Effects of Composition and Microstructure during Tribocorrosion of Aluminum-based Metals and Structures
… the synergistic effects between the two, named tribocorrosion, could cause, most of the time, severer material degradation to jeopardize materials' long-term sustainability and structural integrity. A representative case is aluminum (Al) and its alloys, which exhibit good corrosion resistance in …

Effects of Chemical and Structural Heterogeneity on the Tribocorrosion Resistance of Metals in Aqueous Solutions
… stress and corrosive environment coexist (i.e., tribocorrosion). In this work, strategies to introduce chemical and structural heterogeneity with controlled length-scale at nanometers were proposed and studied in three metallic systems (i.e., Zr-based, Al-based and Mg-based), in order to enhance …

Corrosion and trib-corrosion behaviour of metallic orthopaedic implant materials
… are of great importance. In this respect tribocorrosion is a serious consideration in joint performance. An integrated electrochemical cell on a reciprocating tribo-meter was employed to evaluate the corrosion and tribocorrosion behaviour in a protein rich solution (Bovine Serum), a cell …

The corrosion of CoCrMo alloys for biomedical applications
… integrated electrochemical cell in this study of tribocorrosion. OCP and potentiostat measurements were taken using 3.5% NaCl and 28% bovine in the hip simulator. Potentiodynamic polarisation curves were taken in neutral and acidified bovine serum solutions. The problems and changing variables …

Abrasion-corrosion of cast CoCrMo in simulated hip joint environments
… that gives greater understanding of the tribocorrosion behaviour of cast CoCrMo in simulated hip joint environments. In particular, the roles of third body abrasive particles and proteins have been addressed, which are relevant to clinical applications. The material multi-scale wear …

Effect of Turbulence on the Passive Film Growth and Associated Durability of Aluminum Alloys in Simulated Seawater
Turbulent fluid flow at high Reynolds numbers presents significant degradation risks to active-passive metals due to enhanced localized degradation phenomena. A multidisciplinary experiment was proposed to study the relationship between hydrodynamics in fully-developed pipe flow and both the growth …
