Anti-corrosion coatings

9.1. Overview:

The presence of salt ions, proteins, acid, alkali, etc. will accelerate the corrosion of metals implanted in the human body, which affect bio-compatibility of the implants, produce a toxic reaction, aggravate patients suffering and even threaten their life. So the anti-corrosion coatings are used to extend the life of metal components of medical device.

9.2. Applications:
