Abstract The SEM and EDS results of coatings obtained on pure niobium and titanium alloys (NiTi and Ti6Al4V) by Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation in the electrolytes containing of 300 g and 600 g copper nitrate in 1 litre of concentrated phosphoric acid at 450 V for 3 minutes, are presented. The obtained coatings are porous and consist mainly of phosphorus within titanium and copper. For each coating, the Cu/P ratios were calculated. The maximum of that coefficient was found for niobium and Ti6Al4V alloy oxidised in the electrolyte containing 600 g of Cu(NO3)2 in 1 dm3 of H3PO4 and equaling to 0.22 (wt%) | 0.11 (at%). The minimum of Cu/P ratio was recorded for NiTi and Ti6Al4V alloys oxidised by PEO in electrolyte consisting of 300 g of copper nitrate in 1 dm3 of concentrated phosphoric acid and equals to 0.12 (wt%) | 0.06 (at%). The middle value of that ratio was recorded for NiTi and it equals to 0.16 (wt%) | 0.08 (at%).

The main goal of present paper is to obtain porous coatings enriched in copper by Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation on titanium and niobium as well as on NiTi and Ti6Al4V alloys. Performed SEM and EDS studies confirmed the hypothesis that it is possible to create the porous surfaces with pores, which shapes and size are different. In order to show the copper enrichment inside the surface layers, the copper-to-phosphorus ratios were used. Based on these ratios it may be concluded that average value of Cu/P is maximal for NiTi alloy after oxidation in electrolyte containing 300 g of copper nitrate in 1 liter of phosphoric acid and equals 0.26. The minimum of Cu/P ratio equaling to 0.12 was recorded for pure titanium and pure niobium treated in electrolyte containing 300 g of Cu (NO3)2 in 1 L H3PO4.

AbstractThe SEM and EDS results of porous coatings formed on pure titanium by Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (Micro Arc Oxidation) under DC regime of voltage in the electrolytes containing of 500 g zinc nitrate Zn(NO3)2·6H2O in 1000 mL of concentrated phosphoric acid H3PO4at three voltages, i.e. 450 V, 550 V, 650 V for 3 minutes, are presented. The PEO coatings with pores, which have different shapes and the diameters, consist mainly of phosphorus, titanium and zinc. The maximum of zinc-to-phosphorus (Zn/P) ratio was found for treatment at 650 V and it equals 0.43 (wt%) | 0.20 (at%), while the minimum of that coefficient was recorded for the voltage of 450 V and equaling 0.26 (wt%) | 0.12 (at%). Performed studies have shown a possible way to form the porous coatings enriched with zinc by Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation in electrolyte containing concentrated phosphoric acid H3PO4with zinc nitrate Zn(NO3)2·6H2O.

XPS and GDOES characterizations of porous coatings on tantalum after Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (PEO) at 450 V for 3 minutes in electrolyte containing concentrated (85%) phosphoric acid with calcium nitrate and copper (II) nitrate are described. Based on the obtained data, it may be concluded that the PEO coating consists of tantalum (Ta5+), calcium (Ca2+), copper (Cu2+  and Cu+), and phosphates (PO43-). It has to be pointed out that copper and calcium are distributed throughout the volume. The authors also propose a new model of PEO, based on the derivative of GDOES signals with sputtering time.

Abstract In the paper, the surface layers formed on nickel-titanium alloy during Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (PEO), known also as Micro Arc Oxidation (MAO), are described. The mixture of phosphoric acid and copper nitrate as the electrolyte for all plasma electrochemical processes was used. Nitinol biomaterial was used for the studies. All the experiments were performed under the voltage of 450 V and current density of 0.3 A/dm2. The main purpose of the studies was to achieve the highest amount of copper in the surface layer versus amount of the copper nitrate in phosphoric acid. The highest copper concentration was found in the surface layer after the PEO treatment in the electrolyte consisting of 150g Cu(NO3)2 in 0.5 dm3 H3PO4. The worst results, in case of the amount of copper in the NiTi surface layer, were recorded after oxidizing in the solution with 5 g Cu(NO3)2.

Abstract The SEM and EDS study results of coatings obtained on titanium by Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (PEO) in the electrolytes containing of 600 g copper nitrate in 1 liter of concentrated phosphoric acid at 450 V for 1 and 3 minutes, are presented. The obtained coatings are porous and consist mainly of phosphorus within titanium and copper. It was found that the time of PEO oxidation has impact on the chemical composition of the coatings. The longer time of PEO treatment, the higher amount of copper inside coating. The PEO oxidation of titanium for 1 minute has resulted in the creation of coating, on which 3 phases where found, which contained up to 13.4 wt% (9 at%) of copper inside the phosphate structure. In case of 1 minute PEO treatment of titanium, the 2 phases were found, which contained up to 13 wt% (8 at%) of copper inside the phosphate structure. The copper-to-phosphorus ratios after 1 minute processing belong to the range from 0.28 by wt% (0.14 by at%) to 0.47 by wt% (0.23 by at%), while after 3 minutes the same ratios belong to the range from 0.27 by wt% (0.13 by at%) to 0.35 by wt% (0.17 by at%). In summary, it should be stated that the higher amounts of phosphorus and copper were recorded on titanium after PEO oxidation for 3 minutes than these after 1 minute.

Oxide layers on titanium foils were produced by galvanostatically controlled plasma electrolytic oxidation in 12.9 M sulfuric acid with small amounts of phosphoric acid added up to a 3% mole fraction. In pure sulfuric acid, the oxide layer is distinctly modified by plasma discharges. As the time of the process increases, rough surfaces with typical circular pores evolve. The predominant crystal phase of the titanium dioxide material is rutile. With the addition of phosphoric acid, discharge effects become less pronounced, and the predominant crystal phase changes to anatase. Furthermore, the oxide layer thickness and mass gain both increase. Already small amounts of phosphoric acid induce these effects. Our findings suggest that anions of phosphoric acid preferentially adsorb to the anodic area and suppress plasma discharges, and conventional anodization is promoted. The process was systematically investigated at different stages, and voltage and oxide formation efficiency were determined. Oxide surfaces and their cross-sections were studied by scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The phase composition was determined by X-ray diffraction and confocal Raman microscopy.
