Two Populations

Microstructural evolutions and resulting mechanical properties have been investigated in the near-β Ti-17 alloy following long- term ageing heat-treatment up to 6000 h at 450 °C. The initial microstructure was bimodal lamellar, consisting of two populations of α grains (αlam-primary and αsecondary) in a β phase matrix. Two microstructures were obtained either via controlled heat- treatments from the β phase field - in order to generate significant differences in the grain fraction, size, density and spatial distribution - or sampled from a part submitted to an industrial processing route. High energy XRD reveals that whatever the initial microstructure, the amount of α phase increases significantly after 1000 h long-term ageing. Complementary SEM and image analysis characterizations enable to deduce that this evolution is the consequence of αsecondary growth and/or coarsening. Also, TEM observations and EDX analysis show that the Mo and Cr contents of the β phase increase and that α2 nano-precipitates form within the αlam-primary grains. Considering the mechanical properties, long-term ageing leads to an increase in the yield and ultimate tensile strength, as well as a decrease in the elongation at failure, at an extent which depends on the ageing time.

New Type

A new type of Ti-Al-Sn-Zr-Mo-Si series high temperature titanium alloy was prepared by a water-cooled copper crucible vacuum induction melting method, and its phase transition point was determined by differential thermal analysis to be Tβ = 1017 °C. The influences of solution temperature on the microstructures and mechanical properties of the as-forged high temperature titanium alloy were studied. XRD results illustrated that the phase composition of the alloy after different heat treatments was mainly α phase and β phase. The microstructures showed that with the increase of the solution temperature, the content of the primary α phase gradually reduced, the β transformation structure increased by degrees, then, the number and size of secondary α phase increased obviously. The tensile results at room temperature (RT) illustrated that as the solution temperature increased, the strength of the alloy gradually increased, and the plasticity decreased slightly. The results of tensile test at 650 °C illustrated that the strength of the alloy enhanced with the increase of solution temperature, the plasticity decreased first and then increased, when the solution temperature increased to 1000 °C, the alloy had the best comprehensive mechanical properties, the tensile strength reached 714.01 MPa and the elongation was 8.48 %. Based on the room temperature and high temperature properties of the alloy, the best heat treatment process is finally determined as: 1000 °C/1 h/AC+650 °C/6 h/AC.

Knowledge of tissue mechanical properties is widely required by medical applications, such as disease diagnostics, surgery operation, simulation, planning, and training. A new portable device, called Tissue Resonator Indenter Device (TRID), has been developed for measurement of regional viscoelastic properties of soft tissues at the Bio-instrument and Biomechanics Lab of the University of Toronto. As a device for soft tissue properties in-vivo measurements, the reliability of TRID is crucial. This paper presents TRID’s working principle and the experimental study of TRID’s reliability with respect to inter-reliability, intra-reliability, and the indenter misalignment effect as well. The experimental results show that TRID is a reliable device for in-vivo measurements of soft tissue mechanical properties.

The health of peri-implant soft tissues is important for the long-term success rate of dental implants and the surface topography is pivotal in influencing it. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate, in human patients, the inflammatory mucosal microenvironment in the tissue surrounding a new, nanoscale, laser-treated healing abutment characterized by engineered nanopores versus a standard machined-surface. Analyses of anti- and pro-inflammatory markers, cytokeratins, desmosomal proteins and scanning electron microscopy were performed in 30 soft-tissue biopsies retrieved during second-stage surgery. The results demonstrate that the soft tissue surrounding the laser-treated surface was characterized by a lower grade of inflammation than the one facing the machined-surface, which, in turn, showed a disrupted epithelium and altered desmosomes. Moreover, higher adhesion of the epithelial cells on the laser-treated surface was detected compared to the machined one. In conclusion, the laser-treated surface topography seems to play an important role not only in cell adhesion, but also on the inflammatory makers’ expression of the soft tissue microenvironment. Thus, from a clinical point of view, the use of this kind of topography may be of crucial importance not only on healing abutments but also on prosthetic ones.

This paper demonstrates the use of ultrasound (US) indentation technique for estimating the mechanical properties of tissue- mimicking phantom composites. A tissue-mimicking phantom composite is used to simulate two-layer soft tissue in human. Investigation on the mechanical properties of the phantom composites is extremely important for the understanding of the viscoelastic behaviours of soft tissues and the validation of our proposed US indentation system. The hand-held indentation probe embedded with a US transducer and a load cell together with a US pulser/ receiver. The output of the whole indentation process can be illustrated as force-deformation curves. The mechanical properties of the phantom composites can be estimated by analyzing the force-deformation curves using genetic algorithm (GA).

The results of investigations of the influence of the ageing temperature on the selected mechanical properties i.e. hardness, fracture toughness (examined by the linear elastic fracture mechanics - KIctest) and impact strength (KV) of two-phase Ti6Al7Nb alloy, are presented in the hereby paper. Investigations were performed in the ageing temperatures range: 450÷650°C of the alloy previously undercooled from the selected heating temperature (in two-phase range) - equal 970°C. The heating temperature was determined on the basis of the dilatometric curve of the alloy heating in the system ΔL = f ((T), where: ΔL – change of the sample length, T – temperature, which was then differentiated in the system: ΔL/ΔT = f (T). The dilatometer L78 R.I.T.A of the LINSEIS Company was used in the tests. Investigations of the alloy microstructure in the ageing temperatures range 450÷650°C were carried out by means of the light microscope Axiovert 200 MAT of the Carl Zeiss Company. It was found that nearly equiaxial grains of the primary α phase occur in the microstructure (of the volume fraction app. 30%) and that the volume fraction of the new lamellar α phase - formed from the supersaturated β phase - increases. With an increase of the alloy ageing temperature, in the mentioned above range, a small increase of its hardness from 305 to 324HV as well as a decrease of stress intensity factor KIcfrom 67.3 to 48.6 MPa x m1/2and impact strength (KV) from 40.2 to 31.3 J. The impact tests results were supplemented by the fractographic documentation. It was found, that the characteristic features of the fractures of impact test samples do not exhibit essential differences in dependence of the ageing temperature and material hardness. The fractographic investigations were performed by means of the scanning electron microscope NovaNanoSEM 450.

A novel transparent polycrystalline silicon nitride was fabricated by hot-press sintering with MgO and AlN as additives. The mixed powder with 3 wt.% MgO and 9 wt.% AlN was sintered at 1900oC for 1 hour under 30 MPa pressure in a nitrogen gas atmosphere. Transparent polycrystalline silicon nitride was successfully fabricated. The mechanical properties such as density, hardness, young’s modulus, fracture strength and fracture toughness were evaluated. The effect of α/β phase on the mechanical properties of transparent polycrystalline silicon nitride was investigated. The properties were changed depending on the amount of α/β phase. The hardness and Young's modulus increased with increasing the volume fraction of α-phase fraction as a reflection of the higher hardness of α-phase Si3N4. The fracture toughness and fracture strength decreased with decreasing the volume fraction of β-phase Si3N4.

W-containing Ti-6Al-4V alloys (W=0, 1, and 5 wt%) were fabricated by the powder injection molding process, and the corresponding effects of tungsten content on the mechanical properties and microstructure of the alloys were investigated. The alloy powders were sintered at 1200 °C and then hot-isostatically-pressed at 900 °C. The fabricated alloys were subjected to microstructural and chemical analyses, and tensile and nano-indentation tests. The yield strength and tensile strength proportionally increased as the W content was increased from 0 wt% to 5 wt%. Ductility was not affected by the addition of up to 5 wt% W due to its complete dissolution in the matrix. Higher W addition induced finer α/β lamellar microstructures and increased the β to α phase ratio. Moreover, the added W dissolved preferentially in the β phase by solid solution hardening, increasing the hardness of the β phase, which originally was significantly softer than the α phase. For the alloys containing up to 5 wt% W, the strengthening without ductility loss was attributed to the finer α/β lamellae and the volume increase in the β phase hardened by W. These results suggest that adding W to Ti-6Al-4V alloy is a promising method for developing Ti alloys with both high strength and toughness.

AbstractOsseointegrated dental implants have become an increasingly popular modality of treatment for the replacement of absent or lost teeth because of its high rates of long-term survival when used to support various types of dental prostheses. However, complications and implant failure can still occur and are considered by many clinicians as a major obstacle for implant treatment. Biological complications mainly refer to inflammatory conditions of the soft tissues and bone surrounding implants and their restorative components, which are induced by the accumulation of bacterial biofilm. Two clinical varieties may be distinguished: peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis. Peri-implant mucositis is a reversible, plaque-induced inflammatory lesion confined to the peri-implant soft tissue unit, whereas peri-implantitis is an extension of peri-implant mucositis to involve the bone supporting the implant. Diagnosing and managing these biological complications is of utmost importance for the implant surgeon and dental practitioner. This review encompasses the etiology, diagnostic aspects, prevention, and management of biological complications.

The effects of heat treatment on microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti-38644 alloy were investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) as well as uniaxial tensile test. The results show that when the solution temperature is lower than 845°C, the microstructure of Ti-38644 alloy is equiaxed β phase with the grain size of 20μm, and the tensile strength is about 960MPa. As raising solution temperature to 860°C, the grain size of Ti-38644 alloy increases to 100μm and the tensile strength decreased to 870MPa. There are a large number of secondary α phase precipitated from the grain boundaries and within grain of β phase undergoing aging treatment. Secondary α phase coarsens with increasing the aging temperature, leading to the decrease of tensile strength. After solution treatment at 815°C for 1.5h, water quenching plus aging at 520°C for 10h, air cooling, Ti-38644 alloy shows a better mechanical property with the tensile strength 1330MPa, elongation and reduction of area 10% and 45% respectively.
