Dental materials represent an important market worldwide. For solutions that are currently financially acceptable, CoCr or CoCrMo alloys have been an affordable option for all dental technicians. Constant improvements in the properties of this alloy such as corrosion resistance and hardness have been pursued. In this paper are presented some experimental results obtained from the electro-corrosion resistance analysis of the CoCrWNbMoV alloy in two electrolyte solutions made from artificial saplings Afnor and respectively Duffo Quezada. Following electro-corrosion resistance tests, the surface of the alloy was characterized by optical and electron microscopy (OM and SEM) and chemical dispersion X-ray (EDS) analysis.

Abstract The work presents the results of microscopic tests of two alloys: Co-Cr-Mo and Co-Cr-W-Mo, together with a quantitative local analysis of the chemical composition, with the use of an electron microprobe X-ray analyzer EDS. Corrosion resistance tests were also performed on the alloys, in the artificial saliva environment. The microstructure of the examined alloys was of the dendrite type. An eutectic consisting of alloy carbides and a cobalt austenite was observed in the interdendritic spaces. The dendritic matrix was a solid solution of chromium, molybdenum and carbon in cobalt (Co), and the precipitates present in the interdendritic spaces were rich with Cr and Mo - in the case of Co-Cr-Mo - and with W and Mo - in the case of Co-Cr-W-Mo. The analyzed materials exhibited a similar progress of polarization curves. The obtained currentless potential values and the wide passivation area of those alloys made it possible to conclude their high corrosion resistance in the examined environment.

Molybdenum (Mo) is an important alloying element in maraging steels. In this study, we altered the Mo concentration during the production of four cobalt-free maraging steels using an electroslag refining process. The microstructure of the four forged maraging steels was evaluated to examine phase contents by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. Additionally, we assessed the corrosion resistance of the newly developed alloys in 3.5% NaCl solution and 1 M H2SO4 solution through potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. Furthermore, we performed SEM and energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis after corrosion to assess changes in microstructure and Raman spectroscopy to identify the presence of phases on the electrode surface. The microstructural analysis shows that the formation of retained austenite increases with increasing Mo concentrations. It is found from corrosion study that increasing Mo concentration up to 4.6% increased the corrosion resistance of the steel. However, further increase in Mo concentration reduces the corrosion resistance.

Background: Enamel mineral density is dependent on a balanced dynamic process of demineralization and remineralization. Objective: We evaluated the remineralization potential of experimental calcium- containing primer (CaP) application on enamel subsurface lesions. Methods: Demineralized enamel samples obtained from bovine incisor teeth were prepared and cut buccolingually. All samples were divided into 4 main groups according to the type of primer: CLEARFIL SE BOND 2 Primer (SEP), experimental calcium-containing primer (CaP) and bond: CLEARFIL SE BOND 2 Bond (SEB), CLEARFIL Protect Bond (PBB) treatment: (1) SEP-SEB (2) SEP-PBB (3) CaP-SEB (4) CaP-PBB. Each group was subdivided according to storage time in artificial saliva: immediately, 1 month and 6 months. Then, the samples were analyzed using transverse micro radiography (TMR). Additionally, the samples treated with each primer were prepared for scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) observation. Two-way ANOVA was used for the statistical analysis of mineral loss (ΔZ: vol%·µm). Results: CaP-PBB had the significantly lowest ΔZ at all storage times, while SEP-SEB had the highest ΔZ (p < 0.05). SEM observations revealed that new crystals were formed on the surface after 6 months, and the ratio of calcium on the enamel increased in the EDS analysis. Conclusion: Experimental calcium-containing primer can provide additional mineral deposition, with even further deposition when combined with a fluoride-containing bond.

The present study investigates the effect of lanthanide chlorides conversion coatings on the corrosion response of the 2009 Al alloy and SiCp reinforced 2009 Al MMCs. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization studies showed that the localized corrosion resistance increased after treatments with solutions having various combinations of CeCl3.7H2O and LaCl3.7H2O, with maximum increase noticed for 5000ppm CeCl3.7H2O. It was found that the protection degree effect obtained under similar coating conditions for 25 vol.% SiCp/2009 Al was relatively higher than 15vol.% SiCp/ 2009 Al MMC, but both of them were less than that of the unreinforced alloy. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) accompanied with energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis revealed the deposition of Ce and/ or La oxides/ hydroxides on cathodic intermetallics/ SiCp and the existence of crevices at the SiCp/ matrix interfaces. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results indicated that Ce was incorporated as Ce3+ and Ce4+ species in the coatings.

<p>The aim of this study was to evaluate different weld coatings of Ni alloy applied by the process of submerged arc welding (SAW) on API 5L Gr B steel used in the Oil and Gas Sector. The weldings were made with an AWS ERNiCrMo-4 filler metal of 1,14mm-diameter and an agglomerated, basic fluoride and non-alloying flux. Three weld coatings were made, two of them with pulsed and one with conventional current. Then, these weld coatings were characterized according to microhardness, optical microscopy, Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and corrosion resistance tests. The results showed that the coating applied with conventional current presented lower dilution levels, higher width and height, and higher corrosion resistance when compared to the coatings applied with pulsed current</p>

In the past, 316L stainless steel (SS) has been the material of choice for implant manufacturing. However, the leaching of nickel ions from the SS matrix limits its usefulness as an implant material. In this study, an efficient approach for controlling the leaching of ions and improving its properties is presented. The composition of SS was modified with the addition of boron and niobium, which was followed by sintering in nitrogen atmosphere for 8 h. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) results showed the formation of strong nitrides, indicating the diffusion of nitrogen into the SS matrix. The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis revealed that a nitride layer was deposited on the sample surface, thereby helping to control the leaching of metal ions. The corrosion resistance of the alloy systems in artificial saliva solution indicated minimal weight loss, indicating improved corrosion resistance. The cytotoxicity assessment of the alloy system showed that the developed modified stainless steel alloys are compatible with living cells and can be used as implant materials.

Higher-noble dental alloys (Au, Ag, and Pd) are the most desirable for dentistry applications, but they are expensive. Low-noble (Ag, Pd, Cu) dental alloys are alternatives to higher-noble ones due to their lower price. In this regard, the paper supports the price lowering of dental alloy by increasing the Cu content, i.e., a new 58Ag24Pd11Cu2Au2Zn1.5In1.5Sn dental alloy. The increasing addition of the Cu leads to a complex structure consisting of a solid solution that engulfs compounds of micrometric and nanometric sizes. The 58Ag24Pd11Cu2Au2Zn1.5In1.5Sn has demonstrated a much better electrochemical corrosion behavior in artificial saliva compared to the Paliag and Unique White dental alloys. The improved corrosion behavior of the new alloy is supported by the diminishing of the Cu selective diffusion into the electrolyte due to its retaining into compounds and into Ag-Pd solid solution. Also, the synergic effects of Cu, Zn, In, Sn may improve the corrosion resistance, but they have strengthened the 58Ag24Pd11Cu2Au2Zn1.5In1.5Sn matrix. The main finding addressed in the paper consists in a new 58Ag24Pd11Cu2Au2Zn1.5In1.5Sn dental alloy with improved corrosion resistance in artificial saliva.

Typical applications of metallic dental materials include metal-ceramic restorations, dental implants or orthodontic systems. Due to their contact with human tissues, corrosion resistance is one of the main requirements for dental materials. In the present paper, the corrosion behaviour in Fusayama Meyer artificial saliva solution (pH=5.2) on a selection of four different metallic dental materials (316 L steel, Au based alloy, cp-Ti, Ti6Al4V alloy) currently used in dentistry were investigated. The metallic dental materials have been investigated in terms of electrochemical analysis, chemical composition, morphology before and after corrosion, wettability and roughness. The results showed a hydrophilic behaviour in the case of Au based alloy, cp-Ti and Ti6Al4V alloy, and hydrophobic for 316L stainless steel. Considering the main electrochemical parameters, the cp-Ti alloy exhibited better corrosion resistance in artificial saliva with pH=5.2, followed by Au based alloy, Ti6Al4V alloy and 316L stainless steel. The main objective of the present paper was to evaluate the corrosion behaviour, as in important factor in the selection of metallic materials used in dentistry.

Anticorrosion layers were prepared on commercial Zr-2.5%Nb alloy by employing plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) process in aqueous electrolyte solutions. Microstructure and electrochemical behavior were evaluated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), optical metallography and potentiodynamic polarization measurements. The obtained coatings are uneven, presenting a dominant monoclinic crystallographic phase of ZrO2. Enhanced corrosion resistance was attributed to the PEO-treated samples compared to the commercial black oxide coating.

This work involved the co-substitution of the two bioactive ions of strontium and magnesium into the hydroxyapatite (HA) coating which was then electrochemically deposited on Ti-6Al-4V ELI dental alloy (Gr.23) before and after treatment by Micro Arc Oxidation (MAO). The deposited layers were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The adhesion strength of the coating layer was estimated by using pull-off adhesion test. The adhesion strength of Sr/Mg-HA on the Ti-6Al-4V ELI dental alloy after MAO treatment was 1.79 MPa, which was higher than that before MAO treatment (1.62 MPa). The corrosion behavior of the alloy in artificial saliva environment at temperature ranged 293-323K was assessed by means of electrochemical techniques and potentiodynamic polarization curves. The corrosion protection to the alloy at 293K was increased from 67.98% before treatment by MAO to 75.87% after treatment. The antimicrobial properties of the coated alloy were evaluated against different bacteria and oral fungi (Candida).
