Complex two-component peak of anelastic mechanical losses was observed in multicomponent substitutional austenitic alloys after prior plastic deformation. In AISI 316L, AISI 316LN, AISI 310 and AISI 304 austenitic stainless steels, this peak is situated in the wide range of temperature from 200 to 400K. Characteristics of the observed peak for different thermo-mechanical treatments were studied...

objective(s):  titanium oxides are known to be appropriate hemocompatible materials which are suggested as coatings for blood-contacting devices. little is known about the influence of nanometric crystal structure, layer thickness, and semiconducting characteristics of tio2 on blood hemostasis.   materials and methods: having used sol-gel dip coating method in this study, tio2 thin films were d...

Waste water treatment reservoirs are contaminated with many hazardous chemicals and acids. Reservoirs typically comprise concrete and reinforcement steel bars, and the main elements responsible for their deterioration are hazardous chemicals, acids, and ozone. Currently, a variety of techniques are being used to protect reservoirs from exposure to these elements. The most widely used techniques...

Dynamic recrystallisation (DRX) is an important aspect for industrial applications in hot metal working. Although DRX has been known for more than thirty years, its mechanisms have never been precisely investigated, in part because it was not readily possible to make local texture measurements. In the present work, the material behaviour during DRX is investigated and modelled based on the micr...

The TiO2–SiO2 thin films were deposited on AISI 316L stainless steel via sol-gel method. Then, the effect of the added amount of SiO2 on the structure, morphology and mechanical properties of the films and corrosion behavior of AISI 316L stainless steel substrate were investigated. So, X-ray diffraction, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, depth-sensing indenta...

Pure and calcium-doped silica and titanium dioxide thin films were prepared by the sol-gel method. Two different metallic substrates, i.e. stainless steel (316L) and titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V), were used for thin film deposition. Physicochemical properties and roughness of the thin films derived were investigated using the Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microsco...

A lead bismuth eutectic (LBE) spallation target will be installed in the Target Test Facility (TEF-T) in the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC). The spallation target vessel filled with LBE is made of type 316L stainless steel. However, various damages, such as erosion/corrosion damage and liquid metal embrittlement caused by contact with flowing LBE at high temperature, and irr...

in order to increase the life span of implants, coatings such as bioglass are applied on implants' surfaces to prevent their corrosion in biological fluids. in this research, 45s5 bioglass coatings were applied on 316l stainless steel substrate by sol- gel method and coating's properties were examined by different analyses. according to the xrd results, an amorphous compound containing na2ca2si...

Volume 3 • Issue 4 • 1000e108 J Nanomed Nanotechol ISSN:2157-7439 JNMNT an open access journal For centuries, metals and alloys have been used in substitution for anatomical structures owing to their extraordinary mechanical properties [1]. Type 316L Stainless Steel (SS) is known to be widely used for implantation purposes in orthopedic surgery due to its corrosion resistance, effective cost an...

The corrosion behavior of TiN coated 316L stainless steel in an artificial physiological solution was investigated by means of an electrochemical test. Two different PVD methods were used for film deposition: cathodic arc and reactive magnetron sputtering. The dependence of the corrosion resistance on the main deposition parameters (nitrogen pressure, substrate bias) was analyzed. For a better ...
