Sažetak
XPS (X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy) measurements were performed on AISI 316LVM stainless steel tubes of biomaterial samples, serving for stents, after a standard electropolishing (EP), and magnetoelectropolishing (MEP). After electropolishing operations, the samples were kept in a closed foil pack for about four years. The results of XPS analysis indicate a significant difference in the measurement and calculation values, dependent on surface treatment method: EP and/or MEP. The steel surface film composition and PREN (pitting resistance equivalent number) were calculated. The highest numbers of these values were obtained on samples after MEP where both chromium compounds (Cr 2p) and molybdenum (Mo 3d) increased over three times against these values after EP treatment. The calculated PRENMEP (Fe, Cr, Mo, Mn, Ni, P, S, O) = 16,37, with PRENMEP (Fe, Cr, Mo, Mn, Ni, P, S) = 36,89, versus PRENEP (Fe, Cr, Mo, Mn, Ni, P, S, O) = 3,12, with PRENEP (Fe, Cr, Mo, Mn, Ni, P, S) = 8,53. The results obtained point to an advantageous and unusual effect of the magnetic field action during MEP.
