Corrosion and biocompatibility of PPy/PEG coating electrodeposited on Ti6Al7Nb alloy

Abstract: This work aims to improve the corrosion rate of Ti6Al7Nb alloy and to increase its biocompatibility at the same time, obtaining polymer composite films based on polypyrrole/polyethylene glycol (PPy/PEG). The elaboration method was electrodeposition. FT‐IR analysis was performed in order to emphasize the formation of the PPy‐PEG composite film by incorporating PEG into the polymer structure. The paper is focussed on PEG (400 molecular weight) effect on the corrosion in bioliquids (as tested electrochemical biol… Show more

“…In order to improve the osseointegrative and anticorrosion behavior of Ti‐based alloys, surface modifications with polymers or titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) have been extensively studied. One of the most explored techniques to form various morphologies of TiO 2 layers is electrochemical anodization of the metallic surface .…”

“…An improvement in the corrosion resistance property was attempted by the electro-co-deposition of PPy and PEG (composite coating) on Ti-6Al-7Nb alloy. The authors in this paper substantiated the crucial role of PEG in the corrosion tests carried out in Hank's balanced salt solution [55]. The biological response of G292 human OBs was tested onto these PPy/PEG films, showing a good cell viability and proliferation.…”
