Abstract
The aim of this in vitro study will be to evaluate the corrosive and microstructural behavior of Ti-Zr alloy with or without surface treatment. The hypothesis to be tested is that the surface treatment (double acid etching) and the test alloy (Ti-5Zr, Ti-10Zr and Ti-15Zr) will create a pattern of corrosion different from those observed on machined-surface and other alloys tested (cpTi and…
