## Abstract There is much discussion about the toxic effect of vanadium and aluminum contained in Ti6Al4V alloy for prosthetic implants. The goal of the present investigation was to develop new titanium alloys with sufficient mechanical properties using more biocompatible alloying elements: zirco
## Abstract The aims of this study were to investigate the effects of Zr addition and potentiodynamic polarization on the microstructure and corrosion resistance of Ti–22Nb and Ti–22Nb–6Zr alloy samples. The corrosion tests were carried out in 0.9% NaCl at 37 °C and neutral pH value, utilizing the
