Abstract
Corrosion resistances of Zr based alloys in simulated body fluids were evaluated to clarify the effect of the addition of Pd and Pt. The effect of the heat treatment was also investigated. It was revealed that Pd and Pt are also effective to improve the corrosion resistance of Zr. It is considered that these additive elements changed the property of the passive film and/or the composition of the metal nearest surface subsequent to the selective dissolution of Zr. The remarkable positive shift of the corrosion potential supports this suggestion, and it was confirmed by XPS analysis.
