    The Effect of the Temperature of Heat Treatment Process and the Concentration and Duration of Acid Leaching on the Size and Crystallinity of Nano-Silica Powders Formed by the Dissociation of Natural Diatom Frustule
    (American Scientific Publishers, 2022) Ülker, Sevkan; Güden, Mustafa
    The present study focused on the processing of nano-silica powders in varying sizes and crystallinities through IP: 846247.10 On: Wed, 14 Dec 2022 07:29:25 heat treatment (900-1200 degrees C), hydrofluoric acid leaching (1-7 N), and ball milling (1 h, 500 rpm) of natural Copyright American Scentfic P blishers diatom frustules. The starting natural frustules were determined to be composed of amorphous silica (88%) Delivered by Ingenta and quartz. The partially ordered crystalline low-quartz and or precursor to low-cristobalite started to form at-900 degrees C. As the heat treatment temperature increased, the crystallinity of the frustules increased from 9.3% at 25 degrees C to 46% at 1200 degrees C. Applying a ball milling reduced the mean particle sizes of the as-received and heat-treated frustules from 15.6-13.7 mu m to 7.2-6.7 mu m, respectively. Acid leaching of the as-received and heat-treated frustules resulted in a further increase in the crystallinity. Furthermore, a ball milling applied after an acid leaching was very effective in reducing the particle size of the as-received and heat-treated frustules. The mean particle size of the acid-leached frustules decreased to 774-547 nm with a crystallinity varying between 12 and 48% after ball milling. A partially dissolved amorphous phase was observed in between crystalline silica grains after acid leaching, which resulted in a rapid fracture/separation of the frustules in ball milling.

    Influence of Processing Method of Cocrmo Dental Alloy on the Corrosion Behavior in Artificial Saliva
    (Wiley, 2022) Pontes, Joana R.; Pinto, Ana M. P.; Ariza, Edith; Alves, Alexandra C.; Toptan, Fatih
    Removable or fixed dental frameworks are usually made of CoCr alloys. The CoCr dental alloys are produced traditionally by lost-wax casting. However, alternative processing routes, such as hot-pressing, are being studied for dental applications. The purpose of the present work was to assess the corrosion resistance of CoCrMo dental alloy produced by conventional lost-wax casting and hot-pressing. The corrosion behavior was studied in artificial saliva at 37°C by potentiodynamic polarisation tests. Immersion tests were performed to evaluate the growth of the passive film where electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was used at different immersion periods. Results showed slightly better corrosion resistance in terms of ipass for CoCrMo samples obtained by hot-pressing. On the other hand, the immersion tests showed a more stable and thicker passive film formed on hot-pressed CoCrMo dental alloy, pointing out that hot-pressing may be considered a promising technique to produce CoCrMo dental structures.
