Abstract: Wear and corrosion behaviour of cold-rolled Ti-13Nb-13Zr alloy, with martensitic microstructure, and Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy, in martensitic and two-phase (α +. β) microstructural conditions, was studied in a Ringer's solution. The wear experiments were performed at room temperature with a normal load of 40. N and sliding speeds 0.26, 0.5 and 1.0. m/s. The corrosion behaviour was studied at 37 °C using open circuit potential-time measurements and potentiodynamic polarization. It was found that Ti-13Nb-13Zr alloy has a substantially lower wear resistance than Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy in both microstructural conditions. Surface damage extent increases with sliding speed increase and is always smallest for martensitic Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy with highest hardness. Both alloys exhibit spontaneous passivity in Ringer's solution. Corrosion potential values are similar for all three materials. However, Ti-13Nb-13Zr and martensitic Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloys show improved corrosion resistance comparatively to Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy with (α +. β) microstructure. Martensitic Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy possesses the best combination of both corrosion and wear resistance, although its corrosion resistance is found to be slightly higher than that of the Ti-13Nb-13Zr alloy. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd.
