The surfaces of molybdenum carbide were varied by changing the carburization temperature between 823 and 1123 K. The surfaces of the catalytic material were investigated using in-situ temperature program carburization followed by temperature program reduction and oxidation. In-situ temperature program oxidation (TPO) showed the surfaces of the catalysts contain a similar amoun...

objective: increased enamel surface roughness following orthodontic bracket debonding leads to increased plaque accumulation and enamel decalcification. therefore, different methods are employed to achieve smoother enamel surfaces after bracket debonding. this study compared enamel surface roughness following orthodontic bracket debonding and composite resin removal using white stone and tungst...

the influence of aluminium on the microstructure of austempered ductile cast iron (adi) has been studied. the presence of well distributed graphite in the matrix, and a relatively high volume fraction of retained austenite are responsible for the good mechanical properties of the aluminium alloyed austempered ductile irons including excellent wear resistance, higher resistance to thermal shock,...

surface roughness is one of the most important parameters that plays very critical role in determining the quality of engineering components. a good surface quality resulting in improve of fatigue strength, corrosion and wear resistance of the workpiece. on the other hand, increasing cutting speed and decreasing time of machining are desirable for manufacturers in order to reduce costs and incr...

Production of hard-to-cut materials with uncoated carbide cutting tools in turning, not only cause tool life reduction but also, impairs the product surface roughness. In this paper, influence of hot machining method were studied and presented in two cases. Case1-Workpiece surface roughness quality with constant cutting parameter and 300◦C initial workpiece surface temperature. Case 2Tool tempe...

Using theoretical calculations we predict a novel family of compounds, which might serve for hydrogen storage, and for chemical vapour deposition of titanium carbide coatings.

Silicon carbide particles exhibit both electric and magnetic optical resonances, allowing unexplored dielectric metamaterial designs. Experimental extinction spectra and Mie theory calculations of single microscale rod-shaped particles reveal three observable midinfrared resonant modes. Two of the modes are degenerate, with a frequency that can be tuned according to a resonance condition derive...

objective: peri-implantitis is an irreversible inflammatory reaction in the soft and hard tissues around a functional implant . one of the treatment approaches of this disease include smoothing and polishing the rough surface and removing threads on the implants using rotary instruments, which is called implantoplasy. clinicians should perform implantoplasty with caution because it may raise th...
