摘要
Hydrogenation of the commercial purity (99%) CP Titanium Grade 2 biomaterial was investigated using the secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) after two finishing electrochemical operations: standard electropolishing (EP), and magnetoelectropolishing (MEP). The SIMS depth profile analyses were carried out right after electropolishing, and again one month later. The mass spectrograms of secondary positive and negative ions were recorded. SIMS spectra reveal higher emission of positive O+, Ti+ and TiO+ secondary ions which corresponds to higher oxidation of MEP sample. Negative spectra show higher concentration of compounds containing carbon on MEP sample than those of EP sample. Lower content of hydrogen in the near-surface layers in the MEP sample right after the process was revealed. It was found that the concentrations of oxygen and hydrogen alter in time. One month of storage in air causes the contents of hydrogen in EP and MEP samples to be equalized. The SIMS studies performed after a one month period show that the differences in hydrogen contents between EP and MEP samples are not significant.
