Fluoride in minute quantities is essential component for human health and help in normal mineralization of bone and formation of dental enamel. The determination of fluoride in some species was performed by using fluoride ion-selective electrode by direct measurement and standard addition method.

文摘The cellular structured titanium alloys have attracted significant attention for implants because of their lower Young’s modulus,which is comparable to human bone and has the capability of providing space for bone tissue in-growth.However,there is a gap in the knowledge in regard to the relationship between the pore characteristics and the electrochemical performance of open-cellular structured titanium alloys.In this study,we elucidate the influence of pore characteristics on the electrochemical performance of open-cellular structured Ti-6Al-4V alloys produced by electron beam melting(EBM).Intriguingly,the passive film formed on cellular structured Ti-6Al-4V alloy with a larger pore size was more stable and protective,and the corrosion performance was superior compared to the samples with a smaller pore size in phosphate buffered saline(PBS),mainly because of relatively smaller exposed surface area and unlimited flow of electrolyte.However,in acidic PBS containing fluoride ions,the pore characteristics did not play an important role in the corrosion resistance.It was considered that the protective film breaks down such that the corrosion performance of cellular structured alloys was comparable to each other in this harsh environment.
