We report on the fabrication and the electrochemical behavior of TiN film on the 316L stainless steel (316LSS) material in simulated body fluid (SBF) solution for implant application. The characterization results indicate that the coated TiN is completely crystalline with (111) crystal orientation. Electrochemical results of 316LSS and TiN/316LSS material after 21 days of immersion in SBF show that the durability of the TiN/316LSS is much higher than that of 316LSS, which registers a very low corrosion current density (about tens of nA cm(-2)). The formation of hydroxyapatite on the surface of the TiN/316LSS is also confirmed by SEM, EDX, X-ray and IR spectroscopy.
