The influence of saliva and its substitutes on corrosion of some implant alloys

Andrysewicz E.

Acta Mechanica et Automatica

2013

Vol. 7, no. 2

69--74

The purpose of this paper is evaluation of the influence of human saliva and its substitutes on the corrosion re sistance of some implant alloys used in stomatology, which included: austenitic steel (316L), titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V), and cobalt alloy (CoCrMo). Corrosion studies were conducted by means of the potentiodynamic method with the application of the VoltaLab 21 kit with VoltaMaster 4 software. The reference electrode was a saturated calomel electrode (SCE), whereas the counter electrode was a platinum electrode. The results of conducted studies indicate an increased current density in the passive range on potentiodynamic curves of studied alloys in the envi- ronment of human saliva, and also in a commercial saliva solution – Mucinox. On the basis of conducted corrosion studies, it can be stated that in terms of corrosion resistance the developed saliva substitutes may constitute competitive solutions to commercial saliva substitutes. The prepared substitutes should be studied further from the perspective of practical application for patients. The original value of the paper is a proposition of new saliva substitutes.

Microstructure, properties and hot deformability of the new maraging steels

Purpose: The effects of relevant metallurgical factors on the structure, fracture mode and properties of the high cobalt and cobalt free maraging steel has been studied. The aim was to better understand structure-property relations and enhance mechanical properties of the steels. To provide data needed for production and manufacturing technology, the high temperature deformability using physical simulation method was used. Design/methodology/approach: To study structure-property relation, broad range of the experimental techniques was used: quantitative metallography, X-ray diffraction phase analysis, transmission electron microscopy and SEM fractography. The flow properties in the range of hot working processes were determined by physical simulation approach, using Gleeble 3800 system. Findings: The cobalt-free maraging steel proved to be a valuable structural steel. At much higher fracture toughness it had only about 100 MPa lower yield stress, compared to that of high cobalt steel. Fracture surface morphologies were highly dependent on the steel grade and type of the mechanical test. The hot stress-strain characteristics were established for cobalt free maraging steel and compared to that of a stainless steel. Research limitations/implications: To fully evaluate potential field of applications, deeper comparative studies of the high cobalt and cobalt-free maraging steels are needed, particularly fracture modes and service properties of some parts. Practical implications: Very high mechanical properties and fracture toughness values obtained for the steels studied, make them suitable for advanced structural applications. The studies on the hot deformation behaviour of the steels are of practical value for the hot working process development. Originality/value: Detailed evaluation of the metallurgical purity, microstructure and fracture modes, allowed for better understanding of the microstructure-property relationships in selected high strength steels. The results obtained are of practical value for the development, production and manufacture of the high strength maraging steels with improved properties.
