A low magnetic Zr-1Mo alloy was fabricated by a powder bed fusion (PBF) process using a fiber laser. The microstructure, surface morphology, and pore distribution of the as-built Zr-1Mo alloy were observed. Its magnetic susceptibility and Vickers hardness were evaluated by magnetic susceptibility balance and a microindentation tester, respectively. The as-built Zr-1Mo alloy mainly consisted of ...

Biological fixation of uncemented endosseous implants requires the apposition of bone onto implant’s surface in a process named osseointegration [1]. The present study examined bone tissue response to Ti-6Al-4V alloy implanted into the rat femurs over a long time range (3 days to 6 months). The progression of implants fixation in the cancellous bone of distal epiphysis and within the medullary ...

A recently developed ultra-hard boride-based material, AlMgB14, has been fabricated into a standard cutting tool geometry (TPG-222) and tested using single-point turning of Ti-6Al-4V. The initial testing was conducted to compare this new cutting tool’s performance relative to a WC-Co cutting tool. During the tests the boride-based inserts suffered catastrophic failure for a wide range of cuttin...

The production of customized Ti-6Al-4V ELI dental implants by electron beam melting technology makes it possible to mass produce customized dental implants which introduce a porous surface to promote better osseointegration. By fabricating the root-form implant and the abutment as one piece, the authors expect to eliminate fracturing at the abutment screw and prosthetic screw. This paper descri...

Fiber reinforced metal composites were fabricated by diffusion welding. The matrices used were commercially pure titanium (CPTi) and two kinds of titanium alloys (Ti-6A1-4V and Ti-21V-4A1), and the filaments were two kinds of SiC-CVD fiber. The structure and the distribution of elements in reaction zone between matrix and filament both in as-fabricated state and in heat-treated state were inves...
