The conductivity of a thermal-barrier coating composed of atmospheric plasma sprayed 8 mass percent yttria partially stabilized zirconia has been measured. This coating was sprayed on a substrate of 410 stainless steel. An absolute, steady-state measurement method was used to measure thermal conductivity from 400 to 800 K. The thermal conductivity of the coating is 0.62 W/(m⋅K). This measuremen...

The thermoluminescence (TL) after excitation by UV or X-rays radiation of alumina-zirconia powders is investigated. The composites present five of the characteristic peaks of zirconia at −170, −145, −90, 0 and 95 °C. After a thermal treatment of mixed oxides, a new peak is observed at −35 °C in TL. This peak reveals the presence of stabilized tetragonal zirconia in the material. Moreover by com...

The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of silica and aluminosilicate nanocomposite coating of zirconia-based dental ceramic by a sol-gel dip-coating technique on the bond strength of veneering porcelain to the yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (Y-TZP) in vitro. Thirty Y-TZP blocks (10 mm ×10 mm ×3 mm) were prepared and were assigned to four experimental groups...

Background: Different types of material were used as implants; the most common is titanium and its alloy, recently zirconia acquired robust interest due to many desirable properties, Natural biocomposites received widespread attention an active coating covering metallic implants their bioactivity, availability, affordability. Aim: This study aims present evolvement characterization ginger extra...

To evaluate the influence of convergence angle tooth preparations and abutments height several surface treatments for zirconia copings through tensile retention test. 120 crown were made in Nema G10 with maxillary first molar anatomy. In total, 60 5 mm divided into two groups 6° 20° angles preparations, a 12° 4 6 heights. Three used MDP-primer (10-Methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate), gla...

The R&D of ceramic biomaterials has extensively progressed in Japan since commercial production of calcium phosphates of hydroxyapatite and β-tricalcium phosphate, A-W glass, chemicalsand SBF (simulated body fluid)-treated metals, and yttria-stabilized zirconia for dental and medical applications. The centers of R&D excellence in Japan consist of universities and national research institutes in...

— Two ionic conductors : yttria stabilized zirconia and nonstoichiometric forsterite were studied by an impedance complex method. For both materials, this technique allows us to separate, on each side of a caracteristic frequency wc, two domains corresponding to different relaxation mechanisms. The frequency a>c has been identified as the jump frequency of the charge carriers. The frequency dep...
