There was titanium of second grade used as a substrate for these experiments. There was a specific solution of ammonium fluoride, ethylenglycol and deionized water used to create an oxide layer with advantageous properties. Relation between changes of roughness indexes before and after anodization was found out. The wettability (contact angle) of artificial plasma on surface was measured using sessile drop method. It was found out that titanium dioxide nanotubes formed on the surface significantly decreases contact angle and time of anodization reduces it even more. Corrosion potentials, corrosion rate or polarization resistance were determined by linear polarization methods performed by ASTM standards. Corrosion potential of anodized samples is substantially more positive (≈ -50mV) compared with non-treated sample (≈ - 280mV). On the other hand polarization resistance was significantly higher for non-treated sample. Also potentials of passive layer breakdowns were found. Structure of nanotubes and influence of anodization on surface profile was studied by SEM. </span></p>

In this paper the surface of wood/polyethylene (PE) composites were treated by liquid oxidation, and the structure of surface for wood/polyethylene composites before and after treatment was characterized by contact angle, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscope (SEM); combined with bonding strength test, the effect of concentration for handling solution and addition of oxidant on bonding properties of wood/polyethylene composites was also investigated. The results showed that the contact angle of surface for wood/polyethylene composites reduced and the surface wettability had been improved after liquid oxidation; the -C-O- and C=O functional groups were formed on the treated surface and the surface roughness increased; meanwhile, the shear bonding strength for the treated sample increased significantly after treatment. And these changes would be more obvious when enhancing the concentration of handling solution and adding oxidant.

The contribution is aimed at corrosion propertied and wettability of basic graded of stainless steel commonly used in medicine as a standard for construction of instruments and other applications. Samples of AISI 304 (1.4301) steel were chemical passivated by nitric acid and tested for corrosion resistance in environment of sodium hypochlorite (NaClO), which is commonly used for basic disinfection of surfaces or devices in hospital facilities. It was found that chemical passivation of stainless steel surface increases its corrosion resistance and lower corrosion rate. Passivation layer also shows more polarization resistance. The wettability of passivated surface was measured by sessile drop method. Wettability itself determinates effectivity of disinfection process as the surfaces with lower contact angle may be cleaned and disinfected with more efficiency. It was proofed that chemical passivation increases wettability by lowering contact angle of treated surface.

The poor mechanical stability of hydrophobic and superhydrophobic surfaces and coatings severely hinder their commercial and industrial applicability. In addition to being expensive and time-consuming to manufacture, the ability of these coatings to maintain their non-wetting properties after mechanical abrasion and wear is currently not well-understood. In this work, the influence of increasing abrasive loads on the roughness, wettability, and corrosion inhibition properties of a commercial superhydrophobic coating was studied. It was shown that the wetting and corrosion properties of the superhydrophobic coating was affected by the abrasive load. Increasing abrasive loads were applied using a tribometer and the electrochemical response was studied using open circuit potential, potentiodynamic polarization, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The wetting and roughness behavior of the coating before and after the application of the abrasive load was characterized using contact angle, contact angle hysteresis, and optical profilometry. The protective properties of the superhydrophobic coating was observed to deteriorate as the abrasive load increased. Similarly, after a specific abrasive load, the coating transitioned from the Cassie-Baxter state of wetting into that of the Wenzel state.

The study involves the processing of a novel poly [1, 4-phenylene-cis-benzobisoxazole] (PBO) fibre reinforced high-temperature thermoplastic composite with polyaryletherketone (PAEK) as the matrix. The PBO fibre and the PAEK film surface was modified using the method of argon and nitrogen plasma treatment. The investigation primarily focuses on evaluating the tensile properties of the fabricated laminates and correlating it with the effect of plasma treatment, surface characteristics, and its fracture surface. A 5% decrease in tensile strength was observed post argon plasma treatment while a 27% increase in strength was observed post nitrogen plasma treatment. The morphology of the failure surface was investigated by scanning electron microscopy and an interfacial failure was observed. Furthermore, the effect of plasma on the wettability of PBO fibres and PAEK film surface was confirmed by the Dynamic Contact Angle analysis and sessile drop method respectively. FTIR spectral analysis was done to investigate the effect of plasma treatment on the chemical structure on the surface. The results of the wettability study showed that the argon plasma treatment of the fibre surface increased its hydrophobicity while nitrogen plasma treatment resulted in the reduction of contact angle.

Early Indication

Magnesium (Mg)-based alloys have attracted great interest as metallic biomaterials for orthopedic applications due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and mechanical properties that resemble those of cortical bone. However, the potential toxicity of alloying elements in commercially available Mg alloys makes it critical to engineer and screen new alloys specifically for biomedical applications. The objective of this study was to evaluate and compare the in vitrodegradation and cytocompatibility of two distinct Mg - Zinc (Zn) - Calcium (Ca) alloys (Mg-4%Zn-1%Ca and Mg-9%Zn-1%Ca, wt. %; abbreviated as ZCa41 and ZCa91, respectively) using a bonemarrow derived mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC) model. Both Zn and Ca play critical roles in boneformation and growth, and have been shown to increase mechanical and corrosion properties of Mgalloys. BMSCs provide vertebrates the continuous supply of osteoblasts needed for bone remodelingand repair, and thus were selected to determine the effect of increasing Zn content on cell behavior.Surface microstructure and composition of the alloys were characterized before and after BMSC culture using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and energy dispersive X-rayspectroscopy (EDS). Thermanox® treated glass and plasma treated tissue culture polystyrene were used as a control and reference, respectively. Results indicated that the ZCa91 alloy improved BMSC adhesion as compared with ZCa41 alloy. The formation of high-aspect ratio needle-likefeatures on the surface of ZCa41 alloy after its degradation in cell culture media was speculated tocontribute to the lower cell adhesion. This study provided an early indication on cytocompatibility of Mg-Zn-Ca alloys for biomedical applications.

Purpose Traditional simulation research of geological and similar engineering models, such as landslides or other natural disaster scenarios, usually focuses on the change of stress and the state of the model before and after destruction. However, the transition of the inner change is usually invisible. To optimize and make models more intelligent, this paper aims to propose a perceptible design to detect the internal temperature change transformed by other energy versions like stress or torsion. Design/methodology/approach In this paper, micron diamond particles were embedded in 3D printed geopolymers as a potential thermal sensor material to detect the inner heat change. The authors use synthetic micron diamond powder to reinforced the anti-corrosion properties and thermal conductivity of geopolymer and apply this novel geopolymer slurry in the direct ink writing (DIW) technique. Findings As a result, the addition of micron diamond powder can greatly influence the rheology of geopolymer slurry and make the geopolymer slurry extrudable and suitable for DIW by reducing the slope of the viscosity of this inorganic colloid. The heat transfer coefficient of the micron diamond (15 Wt.%)/geopolymer was 50% higher than the pure geopolymer, which could be detected by the infrared thermal imager. Besides, the addition of diamond particles also increased the porous rates of geopolymer. Originality/value In conclusion, DIW slurry deposition of micron diamond-embedded geopolymer (MDG) composites could be used to manufacture the multi-functional geological model for thermal imaging and defect detection, which need the characteristic of lightweight, isolation, heat transfer and wave absorption.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the TiO2 nanotubes growth and the variation in its diameter to improve the surface properties of Ti-7.5Mo to use for biomedical applications. For the nanotubes TiO2 growth, the samples were anodized in glycerol and ammonium fluoride and divided according to the anodizing potential at 5V to 10V and 24 hour time. The surfaces were examined by scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray analysis (XRD) and contact angle measurements. The average tube diameter, ranging in size from 13 to 23 nm, was found to increase with increasing anodizing voltage. It was also observed a decrease in contact angle in accordance with the increase in the anodizing potential. The X-ray analysis showed the presence of anatase phase in samples whose potential was 10V and this condition represents a simple surface treatment for Ti-7.5Mo alloy that has high potential for biomedical applications.
