Abstract

The aim of this work was to evaluate the corrosion resistance of Ti15Mo alloys prepared with different milling times (0, 3, 5 and 8 hours) and exposed to Hanks solution. The alloys of Ti-15Mo were prepared by mechanical milling under an Ar atmosphere. SPEX 8000M was connected to a hardened steel container with 13 mm (Ø) balls as milling media, using alternate cycles of 30 minutes milling and 30 min resting. Milling time longer than 8 hours using Ti alloys were avoided to prevent oxidation. The electrochemical noise time series of current (I) and voltage (V) were used to calculate the Rn corrosion index = voltage SD / current SD; SD = standard deviation. Rn was calculated from the original data and also from data after drift removal with two fitting procedures: cubic polynomial (degree 3) and moving average. A significant inverse association (p < 0.05, Spearman’s correlation analysis) between milling time and Rn was found in time series fitted by a polynomial, which indicates higher corrosion resistance among samples prepared with longer milling times. The recurrence plot analysis showed that the fitting method also influenced the dynamical behaviour of these time series.
