Abstract
- Titanium is a promising material for medical implants, replacing bones and teeth. However, at pH values below 2, which occur in the dental environment, the corrosion resistance is compromised. The deposition of niobium layers onto titanium is a possibility to increase the corrosion resistance, as measured in 5 N HCl solution.
