Özet

In the developing world, increasing needs and health problems are constantly on the agenda. Solutions to these problems should support each other and should not cause another problem. In this context, implants and prostheses used to replace a missing or damaged structure in living organisms must show the necessary mechanical, electrochemical and biocompatibility properties together. Although CoCr alloys, which are frequently preferred for their superior mechanical properties in places such as dental implants and hip prostheses, show good corrosion performance, it has been found that they cause the release of Cr ions into the body after a while. In addition, these alloys are also weak in terms of biocompatibility as osseointegration. With the surface engineering approach to such problems, it is known that the desired properties can be gained with a number of surface treatments without destroying the desired mechanical properties of the structure.

In this study, commercial 63S bioglass powder was coated on the surface of CoCrW alloy by electrochemical storage using different parameters, then sintered and corrosion behavior in artificial saliva was investigated. As a result of the investigation, necessary morphological and structural analyzes were performed. Based on the analysis, it was observed that coatings with 63S bioglass powder improved the corrosion resistance of CoCrW alloy.
