Facile Preparation of Gadolinium Conversion Coating for Dental Application
Keywords:
AZ31 magnesium alloy, conversion coating, gadolinium oxide, hydrogen evolution, corrosion rateAbstract
The usage of biodegradable screws and plates for bone healing prevents revision surgery. Magnesium and its alloys are one of the widely researched bio-resorbable materials for the possible usage as implant material due to their mechanical properties and non-toxicity. In the present study, conversion coating with gadolinium was done. The formation of nanoplatelets covered with spindle-shaped structures was seen. The formation of gadolinium oxide was confirmed with Attenuated total reflectance- infrared spectroscopy (ATR-IR). The real-time corrosion monitoring was performed using hydrogen evolution studies.
