  • Title: Studies of the corrosion susceptibility of metallic cement restrictors: comparative corrosion behavior of stainless steel and cobalt-chromium alloys.
    Author: Pugh J, Jaffe WL, Kummer FJ.
    Journal: Bull Hosp Joint Dis; 1976 Apr; 37(1):40-53. PubMed ID: 974288.
    Abstract:
    Passive film and accelerated corrosion tests were performed on both wrought AISI 316L stainless steel and wrought Vitallium (Haynes Stellite 25) Charnley Type cement restrictors. The morphology and incidence of corrosion at the wire-wire crevices and the methacrylate-metal crevices were determined by scanning electron microscopy. The results are interpreted in view of the previously-documented crevice corrosion susceptibility of these two alloys.
