Coating Formation

The results of experiments aimed at obtaining multi-component coatings, having a wider range of properties compared to single-component coatings, are provided. The process of formation of coating based on multi-component alloy Co (18...20%)-Cr (5...7%)-Al (0.3...0.4%)-Y(0.2...0.5) was studied. The chemical composition and thickness of the coating as well as the state of the transition layer were also studied. The results of electron probing and X-ray fluorescence microanalysis of obtained coatings are provided. This paper also demonstrates that the properties of surface microrelief are determined by the conditions of coating formation; that each sample of coating has similar sets of chemical elements, that their concentration depends on the precipitation conditions, chemical elements are equally distributed along the thickness of samples, and the diffusion zone of coating materials and substrate is almost non-existent. The low content of substrate material was found in obtained coatings. As the coating thickness increased, the content of substrate material decreased sharply.

The aim: Is to define dentine chemical composition of intact teeth and those with wedge-shaped defects followed by the analysis of revealed differences. Materials and methods: Longitudinal sections of 22 clinically removed teeth (12 – clinically intact ones, 10 – with wedge-shaped defects) from both jaws were studied in patients aged between 25-54 years. JSM-6490 LV focused beam electron microscope (scanning) with system of energy-dispersive X-ray microanalysis INCA Penta FETх3 was used. The chemical composition of 148 dentine areas in the incisal region (tubercle), equator, cervical area has been determined as a percentage of the weight amounts of carbon, oxygen, calcium, phosphorus, sodium, magnesium, sulfur, chlorine, zinc, potassium, aluminum. Results: Dentine chemical composition of teeth with wedge-shaped defects differed from those of intact teeth by significantly lower content: sodium, chlorine and calcium – in the incisal region (tubercle); sodium, magnesium − at the equator; sodium, chlorine and calcium – in the cervical region (p≤0.05). In the sample groups with cervical pathology there was more sulfur and oxygen in the incisal region (tubercle), phosphorus and zinc – at the equator, carbon and potassium – in the cervical region (p≤0.05). Conclusions: Differences in the chemical composition of intact teeth and teeth with wedge-shaped defects, the presence of correlation between the studied chemical elements confirm the role of macro- and microelements in the pathogenesis of non-carious cervical lesions.

ABSTRACTThin films of (AI/In)N alloys have been deposited on AIN-nucleated (00.1) sapphire by reactive (pure N2 gas) magnetron sputtering and characterized by X-ray scattering, stylus profilometry, optical spectroscopy, and electrical transport measurements. Initial efforts have concentrated on producing films with compositions near Al0.31In0.69N (bandgap tailored to GaN). The alloy sputtering targets were disks fabricated by cold pressing appropriate molar mixtures of beads of 99.99% purity Al and In. The resulting thin films are composed of heteroepitaxial grains {(00.1)InNll(00.1)sapphire; (10.0)InNll(11.0)Sapphire} and their chemical composition has been deduced from the variation in the a cell constant (as measured by the X-ray precession method) to yield equilibrium film compositions near Al0.04In0.96N and Al0.25In0.75N, respectively. Preliminary results are presented on the dependence of the quality of heteroepitaxial growth and electrical and optical properties of. these AlxIn1−xN alloy films on various growth parameters: such as chemical composition; film thickness; morphology; and substrate temperature.

Titanium chromium nitride (TiCrN) thin films were deposited on Si substrates by reactive DC unbalanced magnetron sputtering from the Ti-Cr mosaic target. The effect of substrate-to-target distances (dst) on the structure of TiCrN thin films were investigated. The crystal structure, microstructure, thickness, roughness and chemical composition were characterized by glancing angle X-ray diffraction (GAXRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) technique, respectively. The results showed that, all the as-deposited films were formed as a (Ti,Cr)N solid solution. The as-deposited films exhibited a nanostructure with a crystal size less than 65 nm. The crystal size of all plane were in the range of 36.3 – 65.7 nm. The lattice constants were in the range of 4.169 Å to 4.229 Å. The thickness and roughness decrease from 500 nm to292 nm and 3.6 nm to 2.2 nm, respectively, with increasing the substrate-to-target distance. The chemical composition, Ti, Cr and N contents, of the as-deposited films were varied with the substrate-to-target distance. The as-deposited films showed compact columnar and dense morphology as a result of increasing the substrate-to-target distance.

This study was performed to determine the chemical elements used to produce ancient metallic alloys and to understand the manufacture technique of three archaeological founds. It also presents an evaluation method of the objects’ authenticity based on the observation of the corrosion products. This article also includes three ornamental accessories ca. VII-IV century BC found in the vicinity of Shkodra (Albania). A necklace, a belt application and a button are examined using X ray fluorescence (XRF) to determine the chemical composition and optical microscopy (OM) with reflected and polarised light in order to study the microstructure and the corrosion products. From the XRF results all the objects are bronze, copper-tin and copper-tin-lead alloys. After the OM analysis they are authentic objects (not fake replicas) and might have been produced after a casting process in moulds.

Dominant Phase

The Ipubi and Romualdo Formations are Cretaceous units of the Araripe Basin (Santana Group). The first and most ancient was deposited in a lake environment, and some fossils were preserved in shales deposited under blackish conditions. The second was deposited in a marine environment, preserving a rich paleontological content in calcareous concretions. Considering that these two environments preserved their fossils under different processes, in this work we investigated the chemical composition of two fossilized specimens, one from each of the studied stratigraphic units, and compared them using vibrational spectroscopy techniques (Raman and IR), X-ray diffraction and large-field energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) mappings. Calcite was observed as the dominant phase and carbon was observed in the fossils as a byproduct of the decomposition. The preservation of hydroxide calcium phosphate (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2, hydroxyapatite) was observed in both fossils. In addition, it was observed that there was a smaller amount of pyrite (pyritization) in the Romualdo Formation sample than in the Ipubi one. Large-field EDS measurements showed the major presence of the chemical elements calcium, oxygen, iron, aluminum and fluoride in the Ipubi fossil, indicating a greater influence of inorganic processes in its fossilization. Our results also suggest that the Romualdo Formation fossilization process involved the substitution of the hydroxyl group by fluorine, providing durability to the fossils.

The article describes features of the wear site morphology formation during micro-scratching of a titanium alloy by a silicon carbide crystal in comparison with a corundum crystal. The initial shape of the crystal top and the rate of micro-scratching were assumed to be constant. No lubricating or cooling process media were used. External factors: micro-scratch depth and cutting path length. The chemical composition of wear sites was studied using micro-x-ray spectral analysis. The content of chemical elements in the surface layer of silicon carbide and adhered metal was studied at separate points and by area scanning. The accelerating voltage of the excitation electrons was changed in the range from 5 to 20 kV. The concentration of chemical elements on the surface of the wear site was determined immediately after micro-scratching and after removing the adhered metal by etching. The regularities of changes in the concentration of chemical elements depending on the accelerating voltage of the excitation electrons were determined.

The aim of this research was to study patients with the chemical composition of mixed saliva in fluorosis using X-ray microanalysis both living in the endemic center of fluorosis and leaving it. The research involved 64 patients with dental fluorosis, all male, age — 20—35 years. To accomplish the purpose of the study, two groups were formed from them: the first group included 33 people with dental fluorosis of dashed and spotted forms, living in an endemic center of fluorosis (Krasnogorsk district, Moscow region). The second group included 31 people with dental fluorosis who left the endemic focus and live in areas with normal fluoride content in water. Results. According to the content in the mixed saliva of a number of chemical elements, no significant difference (p>0.05) was found between the studied groups. These elements include: carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, silicon, sulfur, and calcium. However, the content of other chemical elements in the oral fluid was observed statistically significant differences (p<0.05) between patients with fluorosis living in the focus of endemic lesion and patients who migrated beyond it. Thus, in the first group, in the studied saliva, the fluorine content was 42% higher than in the second. Also in this group, compared with the second, the phosphorus content was higher 18%, chlorine and potassium 27%. The content of sodium in the first group was 27% lower than in the second.

ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of this study was determine the chemical composition and thermal behavior of Thermafil (TH), Microseal Cone (MC), Microseal Microflow (MF), Obtura (OB) and Obtura Flow (OF). In addition, their thermal behavior in response to temperature variations was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to determine the temperature at which gutta-percha switches from the beta to alpha form, and from the alpha to the amorphous phase. Materials and Methods: The organic and inorganic fractions were separated by dissolution in chloroform. Gutta-percha (GP) was precipitated with acetone. The inorganic fraction was analyzed via Elemental Microanalysis. Energy Dispersive X-ray Microanalysis and X-ray Diffraction were used to identify the chemical elements and compounds (BaSO4 and ZnO). Thermal analysis was conducted using DSC. Results: The organic and inorganic fractions ranged from 21.3% and 26.9% of weights, respectively. MC and MF showed the highest percentages of organic compounds (P = 0.0125). All specimens exhibited two crystalline transformations when heated from ambient temperature to 130°C. MC presented the highest percentage of GP. Conclusions: No correlation was observed between chemical composition and thermal behavior. Each of the products showed thermal behavior that is typical of beta-phase gutta-percha.

Material Tests

The properties of the material affect the quality of the manufactured product. Before transferring the finished product to the production phase and sending it to the customer, material tests should be carried out. Examined material properties such as chemical composition, phase composition, grain boundaries influence results obtained after measurements of the chemical composition. The spectrometers used in SEM or as separate XRFs can be compared due to the principle of operation. The main difference in EDS/WDX or XRF is the types of a beam that excite the characteristic X-rays radiation peaks. Unfortunately, both types of spectroscopy have limitations due to materials properties such as the application light chemical elements in alloys an example of B. As well as small quantities of chemical elements in used alloys that affect the obtained results.
