Corrosion Behaviour of a Silane Protective Coating for NdFeB Magnets in Dentistry

الملخص EN

The corrosion behavior of coated and uncoated Ni/Cu/Ni rare earth magnets was assessed at increasing steps with a multilayering silanization procedure.

Magnets’ durability was analyzed in Fusayama synthetic saliva solution in order to evaluate their application in dental field.

Corrosion performance was evaluated by using polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in synthetic saliva solution up to 72 hours of continuous immersion.

The results show that the addition of silane layers significantly improved anticorrosion properties.

The coating and aging effects, in synthetic saliva solution, on magnetic field were evaluated by means of cyclic force-displacement curves.
