The purpose of this study was to examine how Co-Cr-Mo dental alloy behaves in the solutions of different pH value and different composition over a relatively long period of time. Co-Cr-Mo dental alloy was exposed in vitro to either simulated saliva (phosphate buffer pH 6.0), a highly acidic medium resembling the extreme conditions in the oral cavity (phosphate buffer pH 3.5), and in lactic acid...

ABSTRACT Although traditional Fenton reaction is known for a long time, it is still a perspective method for removal of pollution from wastewater. Applications of electro-Fenton oxidation are commonly used in wastewater treatment. These methods are classified into groups-electrochemical advanced oxidation processes. Typical catalysts for these technologies are Fe2+ ions. Comparison between two ...

The effect of pulse electrodeposition parameters on the composition and microstructure of Ni–Re alloys were studied on a rotating cylinder electrode. Ni–Re alloys were deposited from a citrate bath where the nickel-to-rhenium ratio was 45:1. The composition of the deposited alloy was monitored by energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and compared to a single component transport-based model descr...

In an attempt to control the film composition, factors affecting the composition of Ni-Fe alloy deposits and their crystal structure have been analyzed as a function of bath composition, cathode current density, bath pH, temperature and an addition of citric acid. antimony electrode revealed that the deposition potential of Fe coincides with the potential where the abrupt increase of pH was obs...

We have developed a self-consistent model for predicting the velocity of 1/2[111] screw dislocation in binary iron–carbon alloys gliding by high-temperature Peierls mechanism. The methodology modelling includes: (i) Kinetic Monte-Carlo (kMC) simulation carbon segregation core and determination total occupancy binding sites; (ii) Determination kink-pair formation enthalpy iron—carbon alloy; (iii...

The effect of heat treatment and alloying elements of copper and tin on the microstructure and mechanical properties of austempered ductile cast iron alloys is investigated. The austenitizing temperature of 890°C, the isothermal transformation (austempering) temperatures of 285, 335 and 375°C, and austempering times of 15, 30, 75 and 150 minutes are studied. The alloying elements of copper and ...

The research work examined the effect of the removal of iron from aluminium-silicon alloys using dopants on the structure and mechanical properties. Manganese, cobalt and molybdenum were used as the modifying elements. The as-cast Al Si alloys were analyzed for iron content using Atomic Absorption Spectrometer (AAS) technique. The dopants or modifying elements were added as micro additives at v...

All steels contain some amount of dissolved gases such as oxygen, hydrogen and nitrogen of which nitrogen is effective in improving the mechanical and corrosion properties of stainless steels if it remains in solid solution or precipitates as very fine and coherent nitrides or carbo-nitrides with iron or alloying elements. When nitrogen is added to austenitic steels it can simultaneously improv...

Bunched and multi-circularly wrapped carbon nanotubes (CNT) are observed to grow on alloy substrates based on iron group metals and copper by a microwave enhanced hot-filament method with a dilute gas of ammonia at a proper RF self-bias. The grown size of CNTs embodied in the grain sizes of conducting bulk alloy catalysts such as Cu-Ni, Cu-Fe, Cu-Co, and Cu-Ni-Fe-Co are controlled by a precurso...
