The in vitro corrosion properties and the in vivo interaction with biological environment of a NiTi shape memory alloy were evaluated and compared to a TI6Al4V alloy. The passivity currents were evaluated in vitro by an electrochemical method. The in vivo tests were performed by implantation of cylindrical specimens and special crevice devices on rabbits' femur.

Abstract
The in vitro corrosion properties and the in vivo interaction with biological environment of a NiTi shape memory alloy were evaluated and compared to a TI6Al4V alloy. The passivity currents were evaluated in vitro by an electrochemical method. The in vivo tests were performed by implantation of cylindrical specimens and special crevice devices on rabbits' femur. Some problems related to the in vitro and in vivo behaviour of the NiTi alloy are pointed out.
