چکیده
The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of cryo-treatment on the microstructure, corrosion behavior, and mechanical properties of Ti before and after laser welding. The microstructure was studied by optical microscopy. It was found that the grain size for Ti became smaller after cryo-treatment. Cryo-treatment could also refine and stabilize the crystal lattice structure and distribute precipitate particles throughout the material in the welded metal. Potentiodynamic polarization measurements were employed to investigate the corrosion behavior in an artificial saliva solution. Electrochemical results showed that the laser-welded Ti after cryo-treatment exhibited the most obvious passivation behavior of all the specimens. The mechanical properties of Ti, cryo-treated Ti (C-Ti), laser-welded Ti (W-Ti), and cryo-treated, laser-welded Ti (CW-Ti) were characterized by tensile tests. It was found that the tensile strength and elongation could be improved for Ti and laser-welded Ti by cryo-treatment without impairing its corrosion resistance. [doi:10.2320/matertrans.M2013373]

Effect of Speed and Number of Pass in Friction Stir Welding on the Mechanical and corrosion behavior of Commercial Pure Copper
The results showed that the microhardness and tensile strength of the heat-affected zone as the weakest welding zone in some samples reduced up to 30% compared to the base metal. On the other hand, a decrease in rotational speed, an increase in tool movement speed, and the number of welding passes cause grain refinement and improve mechanical properties. However, the effect of decreasing the ro...

Titanium and titanium alloys are often used in orthopedic surgery and dentistry because of their especial characteristics such as biocompatibility, mechanical properties, and corrosion resistance. However, their bio- inertness is the most serious drawback for biomedical applications. Therefore, a bioactive coating like hydroxyapatite (HA) is coated on their surface. In this regard, in the prese...
