Cardiovascular diseases such as arteriosclerosis are widespread nowadays. Implanting a stent in the injured blood vessel is a common solution. Currently, permanent stents are used and could lead to long-term complications, such as restenosis. To avoid these issues, biodegradable stents are developed. They have to offer the required mechanical support to the blood vessel during the healing period (about one year), be biocompatible, and corrode at a suitable rate, i.e. in 1-2 years [1]. This work deals with the evaluation of the corrosion properties of iron-based alloys by immersion tests. It highlights the importance to follow a well established protocol to obtain reliable and reproducible results
