Abstract

Anodic oxide films grown on titanium alloy Ti-10V-2Fe-3Al in the solution of sodium tartrate, then sealed in boiling deionised water and calcium acetate solution were observed by using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and were chemically analysed by using energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). Corrosion behaviour was investigated in a 3.5% sodium chloride solution, using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The morphology of the anodic oxide films was dependent on the sealing processes. The surface sealed in calcium acetate solution presented a more homogeneous and smooth structure compared with that sealed in boiling deionised water. The corrosion resistance of the oxide films sealed in calcium acetate solution was better than that sealed in boiling deionised water.
