## Abstract Typically, an orthodontic metal bracket is made from stainless steel. It has been shown that such metal may corrode in an acidβ and chlorideβrich environment. The purpose of the current study was to investigate a titanium nitride (TiN) ionβplated stainless steel orthodontic bracket's an

In the last 40 years, as techniques and materials have improved, the success rate of vascular prostheses with a diameter greater than 6 mm has risen steadily, 5-year survival rates exceeding 95% in most centres. With smaller grafts no comparable improvement has occurred, the majority failing within
Passivation of spec-pure Sn was studied in aerated, unstirred solutions of acid sulphate (H2S04/Na2S04) and neutral suphate (Na2S04) using the potentiodynamic technique from an initial cathodic potential (-ve to open circuit potential) in the anodic direction and backwards to the initial potential.
## Abstract The behaviour of Sn electrode in aqueous solutions was investigated in the presence of some additives. The effect of Cl^β^ in a very wide range of concentration (10^β6^β10~M~) was thourgly investigated. The effect of time, temperature, stirring, nitrogen bubbling, cathodic reduction, ad
