MARY, S. John    RAJENDRAN, S.. Corrosion Behaviour of SS316L in Artificial Blood Plasma in Presence of Amoxicillin. []. , 31, 1, pp.33-40. ISSN 0872-1904.  https://doi.org/10.4152/pea.201301033.

An investigation about the corrosion resistance of SS316L alloys in artificial blood plasma environments in presence and absence of amoxicillin has been carried out by using electrochemical techniques. Tested alloys included 18% Cr, 12% Ni, 2.5% Mo, < 0.03 C, balance iron, using artificial blood plasma solution. Electrochemical techniques included potentiodynamic polarization curves, linear polarization resistance and AC impedance spectroscopy. Different techniques have shown that generally speaking, SS316L alloys show a more corrosion resistance in artificial blood plasma in the presence of 100 ppm amoxicillin than in the presence of 50 ppm of amoxicillin and in the absence of amoxicillin. Their corrosion resistance is increased as the quantity of amoxicillin is increased in artificial blood plasma.
