background: dental cobalt base alloys are biocompatible dental materials and have been widely used in dentistry. however, metals are bioinert and may not present bioactivity in human body. bioactivity is the especial ability to interact with human body and make a bonding to soft and hard tissues. the aim of the present research was fabrication and bioactivity evaluation of novel cobalt alloy/ f...

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of the oral environment on the corrosion of dental alloys with different compositions, using electrochemical methods. The corrosion rates were obtained from the current-potential curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The effect of artificial saliva on the corrosion of dental alloys was dependent on alloy composition. Dissoluti...

Single crystalline cobalt nickel (Co-Ni) alloy nanowires are successfully fabricated using direct current (DC) electrodeposition with in the nanopore of highly ordered anodized aluminum oxide (AAO) template. SEM studies show that the average diameter of the alloy nanowires is approximately equal to 50 nm which corresponds to the pore size of the AAO template. Energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analy...

the microleakage of cinaally amalgam, manufactured by dr faghihi co. which is a high copper alloy and fine-cut amalgam was evaluated by radioisotope agents. the microleakage of cinaally amalgam was compared with sybraloy amalgam, manufactured by sybron/kerr co. which is a high copper alloy and spherical shape amalgam and is known as a standard amalgam alloy. the results showed that there is no ...

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of metal primers on the bonding of dental alloys and veneer resin. Polyvinylpyrrolidone solution's tarnish effect on bonding strength was also investigated. MATERIALS AND METHODS Disk-shape metal specimens (diameter 8 mm, thickness 1.5 mm) were made from 3 kinds of alloy (Co-Cr, Ti and Au-Ag-Pd alloy) and divided into 4 groups per each ...

the fabrication of complex-shaped parts out of (wt %) co-28cr-6mo alloy by three-dimensional printing (3dp) was studied using two grades of the alloy with average particle sizes of 20 and 75 μm. to produce sound specimens, 3dp processing parameters were tuned. the sintering behavior of the powders was characterized by the dilatometric analysis. batch sintering in argon atmosphere at 1280 °c for...

Highly oriented soft underlayers with face-centered-cubic ~fcc! phase Co, Co alloy, and composite NiFe/Co film structures have been epitaxially grown on single crystal Si wafers by sputter deposition. The epitaxial orientation relationships have been determined by x-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. It was found that the soft underlayer magnetic properties can be modified in...

The mechanical properties of the Akers type clasp, bar and frame made by the newly developed Ti-20Cr-0.2Si alloy were studied in order to obtain the indices for designing the cast partial denture base. In the case of the clasp, the bending strength of the Ti-20Cr-0.2Si alloy and pure Ti was lower than that of the Co-Cr alloy. The Ti-20Cr-0.2Si alloy and pure Ti may have the same retentive force...
