PURPOSE The aim of the present study was to record the metal-ceramic bond strength of a feldspathic dental porcelain and a Co-Cr alloy, using the Direct Metal Laser Sintering technique (DMLS) for the fabrication of metal substrates. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ten metal substrates were fabricated with powder of a dental Co-Cr alloy using DMLS technique (test group) in dimensions according to ISO 96...

Dendritic and porous Ag-Pd alloy nanostructures were successfully fabricated on the surface of silicon substrate using the co-reduction method and galvanic replacement reaction, respectively. The molar compositions of Ag and Pd in the alloy could be modulated by controlling the molar ratios of metal precursors and reaction time. The Ag-Pd alloy nanostructures were characterized by transmission ...

Ceramometal bond strength has played an important role for the replacement of gold alloys by nickel-chromium alloys in dentistry. This study evaluated the metal/porcelain bond strength of three ceramic systems (Vita VMK 88, Williams and Duceram) associated with three nickel-chromium alloys (Durabond, Lite Cast B and Resistal P) and one experimental cobalt-chromium-titanium alloy. Thirty cast cy...

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was used as an in situ technique to determine the average particle size of metal hydride electrodes. Using this, the pulverization of bare and cobalt-encapsulated LaNi Sn alloy was studied as a function of charge–dis4.27 0.24 charge cycles. In the case of bare alloy, pulverization causes an exponential decay in particle size with cycling. Cobalt-encapsulat...

We report the synthesis of Co-Mo alloy nanoparticles with a uniform distribution of the alloy elements on CeO2via sodium naphthalenide-driven reduction. The resulting sample functions as a highly efficient and stable catalyst for ammonia synthesis. Based on the metal weight, the catalytic activity is ca. 20 times higher than that of Co3Mo3N.

Alloy disorder can affect ferromagnetism and metal–insulator transitions of correlated lattice fermion systems in subtle and often unexpected ways. Solving the Hubbard model and the periodic Anderson model within dynamical mean-field theory we show that alloy disorder can increase the Curie temperature of a non-disordered system, and also yields novel Mott or Kondo insulators at fractional elec...

We report the synthesis and characterization of new Ni(x)Ru(1-x) (x = 0.56-0.74) alloy nanoparticles (NPs) and their catalytic activity for hydrogen release in the ammonia borane hydrolysis process. The alloy NPs were obtained by wet-chemistry method using a rapid lithium triethylborohydride reduction of Ni(2+) and Ru(3+) precursors in oleylamine. The nature of each alloy sample was fully chara...

Restoration of esthetics is an important factor to consider in the fabrication of a removable partial denture (RPD) . 1 Several types of polymers and metal alloys have been used in RPD construction. Frequently, RPD clasps made from the same alloy as the metal framework. The most common alloys used for clasps are cobalt-chromium (Co-Cr) alloy and gold and titanium alloys, although these may be u...

although the solubility of oxygen in molten aluminum alloys is said to be negligible, the fresh surface of the melt oxidizes quickly in the air and an oxide film is formed on the melt surface. oxide-metal-oxide sandwich technique is a method for the study of short-time surface oxide films. in this research, air was blown at 0.5 atmosphere into the melts of al-1mg and al-6mg alloys by means of a...
