ELECTROCHEMICAL INFLUENCE OF AMINO ACIDS ON THE CORROSION OF BIOALLOYS
<p style="text-align: justify;">Shape memory alloys are of great commercial importance from biomedical applications to smart materials. The electrochemical behavior of Cu-Al-Zn alloy in phosphate buffer without and in the presence of amino acid was investigated. Electrochemical researches were performed in a traditional three-electrode system by means of the Tafel extrapolation method. The results showed that the presence of amino acid leads to a decrease in the corrosion rate and the density (values) of the corrosion current, which indicates that the tested inhibitor is efficient.</p>
