Ti6Al4V alloy is a material with great strength, low-slung modulus, inferior density, and a virtuous blend of mechanical and exceptional corrosion resistance. However, it does not offer good osseointegration and bone development properties. Conversely, hydroxyapatite (HAP) is highly bioactive in nature to bind with the nearby bone tissues when implanted in the host body. In this work, we have extracted HAP from bovine bones by using the thermal decomposition method. This was followed by its deposition onto the Ti6Al4V alloy using the Electrophoretic Deposition (EPD) technique. TiO2 is used as a bond coat layer to increase the adhesion between HAP and Ti6Al4V alloy substrates. The coated samples after sintering exhibited excellent adhesion. This was followed by characterization using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Fourier Transformed Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). FTIR and SEM confirm the formation of HAP and its presence after the immersion in SBF. Vicker hardness tester confirms the increase in hardness value of coated samples up to 35%. Potentiostat tests were conducted to compare the corrosion rate of both samples. In addition, the particle sizes were also identified by a laser particle analyzer, whereas X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) technique was also used to determine the crystalline phases of alloy and HAP.

The Mo surface modified layer on Ti6Al4V alloy was obtained by the plasma surface alloying technique. The structure and composition of the Mo modified Ti6Al4V alloy was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and glow discharge optical emission spectroscopy (GDOES). The Mo modified layer contains Mo coating on subsurface and diffusion layers between the subsurface and substrate. The X- ray diffraction analysis of the Mo modified Ti6Al4V alloy reveals that the outmost surface of the Mo modified Ti6Al4V alloy is composed of pure Mo. The electrochemical corrosion performance of the Mo modified Ti6Al4V alloy in 25°C Hank’s solution was investigated and compared with that of Ti6Al4V alloy. Results indicate that the self-corroding electric potential and the corrosion-rate of the Mo modified Ti6Al4V alloy are higher than that of Ti6Al4V alloy in 25°C Hank’s solution.

AbstractThe aim of the study was the basic incidence on the phenomenon of adsorption that occurs at the hydroxyapatite/malic acid interface, leading to a change in the surface properties of hydroxyapatite, Analytical methods used in the research: X-ray diffraction (XRD) as well as by the, adsorption–desorption of nitrogen (ASAP), potentiometric titration. The specific adsorption of malic acid ions at the hydroxyapatite interface was investigated by means of the radioisotope method. The zeta potential of hydroxyapatite dispersions was determined by electrophoresis with Zetasizer Nano ZS90 by Malvern. The particle sizes of hydroxyapatite samples were analyzed using Masteriszer 2000 Malvern. Studies on the kinetics of malic acid on hydroxyapatite from a solution with an initial concentration of 1 mmol/dm3 have shown that the adsorption process is initially fast, followed by a slow adsorption step. An increase in the pH of the solution causes a decrease in the malic acid adsorption as a result of competition with hydroxyl ions. The presence of adsorbed malic acid was confirmed by the FTIR measurements. The effect of malic acid adsorption on the zeta potential and particle size distribution of hydroxyapatite in the NaCl solution was investigated.

ZrO2(Y2O3)-based ceramics with coloring gradient can facilitate the development of dental prosthesis by the improvement of esthetic properties. In this work, ZrO2 powders with different particle sizes were investigated. White and yellow zirconia powders (TOSOH Corporation-Japan) were characterized by particles size distribution using nanoSight-LM20 analyzer. Furthermore, samples were characterized by X-Ray diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy and relative density. Compacts with two layers, one white and one yellow were uniaxially pressed at 80MPa and sintered at 1530°C-120min. The yellow-powder presented average particles size of 180±66nm, while the white-powder presented particles size of 198±73nm. After sintering, full dense ceramics with tetragonal phase were obtained. The linear shrinkage of the yellow and white-layer was 22.75% and 22.05% respectively. This difference in shrinkage is important in the machining of prostheses in ceramic CAD/CAM systems, because they lead to difficulties in adapting this customized prosthesis in patients.

Abstract The full decomposition of dolomites with low and high iron content at low temperatures and low pressures is discussed with reference to the free energy of mixing of the ternary system Ca. Fe, Mg/O. The actual products of the primary step are a couple of rock salt structured oxides close to the spinodal compositions and with very small particle sizes. A subsequent diffusional process can produce large crystallites with equilibrium compositions, but it is effective only when either a low-iron dolomite is used as starting material or higher temperatures are employed.

In this study, the performance of different acid treated Myanmar Natural Clay (Mabisian) was conducted the pyrolysis of mixed plastic wastes, 40% high density polyethylene, 30% polypropylene, 25% low density polyethylene and 5% polystyrene. Mabisian clay was refluxed with different concentration of nitric acid (2M, 4M, 6M, 8M, 10M, 12M and 14M)  at 100ºC for 3hrs followed by calcination at 500ºC for 1hr. The physico-chemical characteristics of resulted leached clay were studied by X-Ray Fluoresence spectroscopy (XRF), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Fourier Transformed Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The pyrolytic oil was characterized by Gas Chromatography – mass spectopy (GC-MS). XRF and FTIR studies indicated that acid treatment under reflux condition lead to the removal of octahedral Al3+ cations along with other impurities.  The chemical treatment increased the Si/Al ratio.  The maximum liquid yield (75%) was obtained at 12 M nitric acid, 3hr reaction time and 100 º C reaction temperatures. In addition, the percent peak area of gasoline range hydrocarbon was obtained 55.6% at optimum condition. Thus, the treated clay can be used as promising as catalyst support.

The low temperature pressureless sintering of a nanosized Si3N4 powder with doped sintering additives was investigated. The microstructural evolution during sintering at different temperatures was analyzed using x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The effect of using nanosized Si3N4 powder as a catalyst to accelerate the α→β–Si3N4 transformation of a commercial Si3N4 powder with larger particle sizes was also investigated. Finally, two stage sintering was used to study the feasibility of controlling the microstructure and the mechanical properties of the nanosized silicon nitride.

The nonalloyed steels are very cost-effective, but their usefulness in numerous applications is imbedded due to low mechanical strength. The strength of several steels can be improved by nitriding; however, nonalloyed steels are not suitable. They can be nitrided by introducing special nitriding alloys (like chromium, aluminum, etc.) during manufacturing or some interlayer deposition, but it is quite expensive. The aim of this study is to improve nitriding capability of nonalloyed steels without any additional treatment. This is done by using alloyed stainless steel active screen in active screen plasma treatment, which provides an adequate amount of chromium to form stable and hard nitrides. The processed samples are characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive spectroscopy, pin-on-disc wear tester, hardness tester and potentiodynamic polarization test.

Oleic acid (OA) and octadecylamine (ODA) capped lead sulphide (PbS) nanoparticles were prepared at 150, 190 and 230 °C. X-ray diffraction patterns indicates that the synthesized PbS nanoparticles were in the rock cubic salt crystalline phase. The particle sizes of the as-prepared PbS nanoparticles are in the range 2.91–10.05 nm for OA-PbS(150), 24.92–39.98 nm for ODA-PbS(150), 9.26 – 29.08 nm for OA-PbS(190), 34.54 – 48.04 nm for ODA-PbS(190), 17.96–88.07 nm for OA-PbS(230) and 53.60 – 94.42 nm for ODA-PbS(230). SEM images revealed flaky and agglomerated spherical like morphology for the nanoparticles. The energy bandgap of the PbS nanoparticles are in the range 4.14 – 4.25 eV, OA-PbS(230) have the lowest bandgap of 4.14 eV while ODA-PbS(150) have the highest bandgap of 4.25 eV. The PbS nanoparticles were used as photocatalyst for the degradation of Rhodamine B and OA-PbS(150) showed efficiency of 44.11% after 360 mins. Cyclic voltammetry of the PbS nanoparticles showed a reversible redox reaction and linear Randles-Sevcik plots indicates electron transfer process is diffusion controlled.

Bioceramic composites were obtained from chitosan and hydroxyapatite pastes synthesized at physiological temperature according to two different syntheses approaches. Usual analytical techniques (X-ray diffraction analysis, Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy, Thermo gravimetric analysis, Scanning electron microscopy, X-ray dispersive energy analysis and Porosimetry) were employed to characterize the resulting material. The aim of this investigation was to study the bioceramic properties of the pastes with non-decaying behavior from chitosan-hydroxyapatite composites. Chitosan, which also forms a water-insoluble gel in the presence of calcium ions, and has been reported to have pharmacologically beneficial effects on osteoconductivity, was added to the solid phase of the hydroxyapatite powder. The properties exhibited by the chitosan-hydroxyapatite composites were characteristic of bioceramics applied as bone substitutes. Hydroxyapatite contents ranging from 85 to 98% (w/w) resulted in suitable bioceramic composites for bone regeneration, since they showed a non-decaying behavior, good mechanical properties and suitable pore sizes.

The effects of Mn addition on the microstructure and hardness of 6061 aluminum alloy were studied by means of scanning electron microscope (SEM) , energy dispersive X-Ray Analysis (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and hardness tester in this work. The results shows that rod and fishbone AlSiFeMn phase will be formed in the alloy with Mn addition in 6061 aluminium alloy, and the AlSiFeMn phase increases with the increasing of Mn content . By the mean of XRD, the Al4.07 Mn Si0.74 phase is found in the 6061 aluminium alloy from 0.7% to 1.5% Mn. The hardness increases with the increasing of Mn contents both for as-cast and for T6 heat treatment. However, the hardness growth rate for as-cast is much more than that for T6 heat treatment at the same Mn addition in the 6061 alloy. Mn has a little effect on the hardness for T6 heat treatment in 6061 alloy.
