In orthopedics, occasionally, different types of metals are used in applications which they contact with each other. However, few studies have electrochemically investigated the galvanic corrosion orthopedic implants formed metals. this study, Ti–6Al–4V ELI alloy, Co–Cr–Mo and 316L type stainless steel, a newly developed Zr–1Mo alloy as low-magnetic susceptibility material was evaluated saline....

The effects of different Zr additions (0.05wt.%-0.5wt.%) on the structure and tensile properties an Al-4.5Cu-0.3Mg-0.05Ti (wt.%) alloy solidified under a high cooling rate (18 °C·s-1), in as-cast T6 heat-treated conditions were studied. consists equiaxed grains α-Al with average size 64 μm which is unaffected by additions, indicating ineffectiveness grain refinement alloy. Scanning electron mic...

The present investigation aimed at the determination of Cr addition on microstructure, phase composition, and mechanical properties Al-Cu-Y-Zr alloy. Quasi-binary alloys ternary Al-Cu-Y system with atomic rotation Cu/Y = 4/1 have a narrow solidification range high solidus temperature. 0.3% in Al-5.1Cu-1.7Y-0.3Zr alloy provides formation novel quaternary Al81–85Cu7–10Y3–4Cr5 phase. L12-Al3(Zr,Y)...
