Abstract
Five commercial Pd-Ag alloys were investigated. Their electrochemical behavior was tested with standard potentiodynamic techniques in 0.9% saline solution and an artificial saliva and compared with high-Pd systems. Corrosion characteristics of the Pd-Ag alloys were quite similar regardless of microstructural and compositional differences. In the area of oral interest, all alloys showed a sufficient corrosion resistance. The alloys were, unlike their high-Pd counterparts, adversely affected by a high Cl- content under more extreme conditions, and a visible film formed.Entities:
