The paper aims to present the main objectives for using magnetic fields to improve process of electropolishing (EP), firstly by focusing on materials and electrochemical systems. The general introduction has been concerned on the sample surface treated under pseudopassivity conditions, in the process generally known as magnetoelectropolishing (MEP). Long-term up-to-date experiments have shown profound changes observed on metals and alloys. The advantageous effects gained by applying MEP to metals and alloys cover: improvement of corrosion resistance, bio- and haemocompatibility, roughness by modification of their surfaces. The improvements are also referred to the mechanical properties of metals and alloys treated by MEP namely: removal of hydrogen, fatigue resistance enhancement, etc. Further developments and the effects of magnetic fields on electropolishing of metals and alloys are to be presented in the next publications.

The paper investigates a variety of properties of thin aluminum sheets fabricated using physical action of pulsed magnetic fields and weak pulsed current. The possibility of using thermal resistant aluminum alloys parts in aircraft manufacturing, including ones made by forming processes which require sufficiently high plasticity of initial sheets, is widely discussed. Two possible technological options have been tested for manufacturing sheet samples of Al-Cu-Mn and Al-Mg-Si alloys. A set of properties has been investigated (thermal resistance, mechanical properties, specific electrical conductivity, macrostructure of weldability zones, corrosion resistance of alloy samples. Casted workpieces were thermo-mechanically treated by heating and upsetting to 50 – 55 % with consequent hardening and aging. After that workpieces were subjected to multi-cycle rolling up to 0.3x10-3 m. The achieved results demonstrate that after 400 hours of exposure to 250°C, the thermal resistant parameters by tensile strength are higher after the exposure to weak pulsed currents than after the exposure to pulsed magnetic fields. Maximal thermal resistant parameters by tensile strength and maximal electrical conductivity was achieved in 01327+Sc (Al-Mg-Si) alloy. The mechanical properties, corrosion resistance and Erichsen formability parameters were also determined.

Titanium Grade 4 (G4) is the most commonly used material for dental implants due to its excellent biocompatibility and mechanical properties. However, titanium implants require a rough surface that can increase the biomechanical potential of implant–bone contact and affect protein adsorption speed. In this work, the effect of sandblasting of the Ti G4 surface on the long-term corrosion resistance in artificial saliva of pH = 7.4 at 37 °C was studied. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) single-{hkl} sin2ψ method was used to measure the sandblasted Ti residual stress. In vitro corrosion resistance tests were conducted for 21 days using the open circuit potential method, polarization curves, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Using the Kelvin scanning probe, the electron work function was determined. Analysis of the obtained results showed an improvement in the corrosion resistance of the sandblasted Ti G4 compared to Ti with the machine surface. The increase in corrosion resistance was related to the residual compressive stress of 324.7 MPa present in the sandblasted Ti surface. Sandblasting caused plastic deformation of the Ti surface, which resulted in the improvement in mechanical properties, as evidenced by the increase in the hardness of the sandblasted Ti compared to Ti with the machine surface.

The study discusses the results of investigations conducted on carbon coatings applied on a prosthodontic alloy Ni-Cr. Carbon coatings with the thickness of about 1000 nm were deposited by means of the RF PACVD method with a titanium interlayer applied by magnetron spray dispersion. The coatings underwent microscopic examinations, as well as structural tests with the use of Raman spectrometry, investigations of mechanical properties, adhesion and corrosion tests; also, the bacterial adhesion to the sample surface was determined. It can be inferred from the performed studies that the obtained carbon coatings exhibit mechanical properties which allow them to be used for prosthodontic elements. The coatings’ adhesion to the metallic substrate made of Ni-Cr alloy equaled about 150 mN. The examined coatings clearly improve the corrosion resistance and reduce the number of bacteria adhering to the sample surfaces. Taking all this into account, it can be stated that carbon coatings can be potentially applied to protect metal prosthetic restorations.

This paper describes the manufacturing and corrosion resistance of sialon based ceramics for application in the modern aluminium industry. Sialon based ceramics are characterized by excellent mechanical properties at high temperatures, good corrosion and thermal shock resistance and low wettability, thus this material is suitable for the long term liquid aluminium contact. To obtain reaction bonded materials in this work, relatively cheap and commonly available components were used: fine Si and Al2O3 powders. The specimens were examined after heating in flowing nitrogen for the phase composition and dimension stability. Sintered materials were tested for corrosion resistance and wettability in liquid aluminium. The microstructure of the contact surface was examined by SEM/EDS methods.

Force Velocity

The effects of a complete spinal cord transection (ST) on the mechanical properties of the rat soleus were assessed 3 and 6 mo post-ST and compared with age-matched controls. Maximal tetanic force was reduced by ∼44 and ∼25% at 3 and 6 mo post-ST, respectively. Similarly, maximum twitch force was reduced by ∼29% in 3-mo and ∼17% in 6-mo ST rats. ST resulted in faster twitch properties as evidenced by shorter time to peak tension (∼45%) and half-relaxation time (∼55%) at both time points. Maximum shortening velocity was significantly increased in ST rats whether measured by extrapolation from the force-velocity curve (approximately twofold at both time points) or by slack-test measurements (over twofold at both time points). A significant reduction in fatigue resistance of the soleus was observed at 3 (∼25%) and 6 mo (∼45%) post-ST. For the majority of the speed-related properties, no significant differences were detected between 3- and 6-mo ST rats. However, the fatigue resistance of the soleus was significantly lower in 6- vs. 3-mo ST rats. These data suggest that, between 3 and 6 mo post-ST, force-related properties tended to recover, speed-related properties plateaued, and fatigue-related properties continued to decline. Thus some specific functional properties of the rat soleus related to contractile force, speed, and fatigue adapted independently after ST.

Carbon Fiber Reinforced

Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a crystallizable thermoplastic used as composite matrix materials in application which requires high yield stress, high toughness, long term high temperature service, and resistance to solvent and radiation. There have been several reports on the crystallization behavior of neat PEEK and of CF/PEEK composite. Other reports discussed the effects of crystallization on the mechanical properties of PEEK and CF/PEEK composites. However, these reports were all concerned with the crystallization or melting processes at or close to atmospheric pressure. Thus, the effects of high pressure on the crystallization of CF/PEEK will be examined in this study.The continuous carbon fiber reinforced PEEK (CF/PEEK) laminate composite with 68 wt.% of fibers was obtained from Imperial Chemical Industry (ICI). For the high pressure experiments, HIP was used to keep these samples under 1000, 1500 or 2000 atm. Then the samples were slowly cooled from 420 °C to 60 °C in the cooling rate about 1 - 2 degree per minute to induce high pressure crystallization. After the high pressure treatment, the samples were scanned in regular DSC to study the crystallinity and the melting temperature. Following the regular polishing, etching, and gold coating of the sample surface, the scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used to image the microstructure of the crystals. Also the samples about 25mmx5mmx3mm were prepared for the 3-point bending tests.
