The evaluation of clinical relevance in this research is crucial to simplify the transfer of knowledge from research by materials engineering into practice in dentistry.
Abstract. Hard coatings limiting direct contact of material susceptible to wear are applied in order to improve resistance to abrasive wear. The key importance in using anti-wear coatings has their adhesion to substrate and differences in mechanical properties of the coating and substrate, particularly their Young's module. Studies have analyzed merits of applying nitride coatings TiAlN, AlTiN and hybrid coating TiAlN/TiSiN on titanium substrate ASTM grade 2. For that purpose, nanohardness and scratch tests for each coating were conducted. Apparatus of Anton Paar Company was used in these studies -ultra-high resolution nanoindenter and micro combi tester. Due to the fact, that surface roughness is a significant parameter affecting properties of the surface layer, the first appointed parameters were Sa roughness with a use of optical profilometer Bruker Contour GT. Obtained results suggest the best adhesive grip of hybrid coating TiAlN/TiSiN compared with other tested. The weakest adhesion to titanium grade 2 has TiAlN coating, on which in scratch test has been observed significantly faster total damage, in comparison with other tested. Research results will provide the input data for numerical analysis, enabling fast receiving effects of applying tested coatings without the need to carry out time-consuming research.
Abstract. Thermoplastic composites go toward making an increasingly greater percentage of all manufacturing polymer composites. They have a lot of beneficial properties and their manufacturing using injecting and extrusion methods is a very easy and cheap process. Their properties significantly overtake the properties of traditional materials and it is the reason for their use. Scientists are continuously carrying out research to find new applications of composites materials in new industries, not only in the automotive or aircraft industry. When thermoplastic composites are manufactured a very important factor is the appropriate accommodation of tensile strength to their predestination. Scientists need to know the behaviour of these materials during the impact of different forces, and the factors of working in normal conditions too. The main aim of this article was macroscopic and microscopic analysis of the structure of thermoplastic composites after static tensile strength test. Materials which were analysed were thermoplastic materials which have poly(butylene terephthalate) -PBT matrix reinforced with different content glass fibres -from 10% for 30%. In addition, research showed the necessary force to receive fracture and set their distinguishing characteristic down.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
