Machinability of Experimental Ti-Ag Alloys

Machinability of experimental Ti-Ag alloys.

This study investigated the machinability of experimental Ti-Ag alloys (5, 10, 20, and 30 mass% Ag) as a new dental titanium alloy candidate for CAD/CAM use. The alloys were slotted with a vertical milling machine and carbide square end mills under two cutting conditions. Machinability was evaluated through cutting force using a three-component force transducer fixed on the table of the milling...

Machinability of Experimental Ti-Cu Alloys

This study is an investigation of the machinability of experimental Ti-Cu alloys (2, 5, and 10mass% Cu) as new dental titanium alloy candidates for CAD/CAM use. The alloys were slotted with a vertical milling machine and carbide square end mills under two cutting conditions. Their machinability was evaluated through cutting force using a three-component force transducer fixed on the table of th...

Thermodynamic and experimental study of Ti-Ag-Cu alloys

Phase equilibria in the ternary Ti-Ag-Cu system have been studied thermodynamically and experimentally at various temperatures. The thermodynamic analysis was performed by combining the most recent data on the binary Ag-Cu, Ti-Ag and Ti-Cu systems and experimental information obtained by the diffusion couple technique. The eutectic and three noneutectic binary Ag-Cu alloys were melted and annea...

Mechanical properties and microstructures of dental cast Ti-Ag and Ti-Cu alloys.

In this study, experimental Ti-Ag alloys (5, 10, and 20 mass% Ag) and Ti-Cu alloys (2, 5, and 10 mass% Cu) were made in an argon-arc melting furnace. The alloys were cast into magnesia molds using an argon gas-pressure dental casting machine, and the mechanical properties and microstructures of the castings were investigated. As the concentration of silver or copper in the alloys increased, the...
