Estimating the term…
The present invention discloses a method for the controlled guidance of corrosion by the action of a laser beam. This method enables the selective adjustment of the speed of corrosion in each area of a target component and, therefore, the driving of the corrosion towards the areas of interest. With the application of this method, the corrosion process is guided by the laser treatment and becomes predictable and controllable. The method is applicable in all those sectors of activity where it is necessary to control corrosion.
Method for the controlled guidance of corrosion on a material or article to be treated comprising the following steps:
A method according to any of the preceding claims comprising a plurality of laser beam surface treatments performed with an increase in the exposure in defined stages, preferably two stages, and more preferably four stages.
Use of the method according to the preceding claims for the manufacture of a resorbable metallic osteosynthesis plate that can be reabsorbed by the human body.
