                         diffraction, and wettability analyses were used to characterize 
                         the surface of the samples. In addition, corrosion tests were 
                         performed using potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical 
                         impedance spectroscopy. The proposed surface treatment did not

                         resistance of the alloy could be changed by varying the etching 
                         temperature. Considering that these properties are indirect
