In this study, zirconium oxide coatings were formed on pure zirconium by microarc oxidation technique with the electrolytes containing KOH and different amounts of sodium silicate (0-40 gr/lt) for the same coating duration of 2 hours. The microstructure, surface roughness, phase content and chemical composition of the coatings were characterized by using scanning electron microscopy, profilometery and X-ray diffractometry. It was found that the coatings on surface of zirconium consist of monoclinic ZrO2 (m-ZrO2) and tetragonal ZrO2 (t-ZrO2) phases and the addition and increasing sodium silicate concentration in the electrolyte increases amount of t-ZrO2 phase. The coatings were well adhered to Zr substrate with some cracks and porosities in the coating for all concentrations of sodium silicate. The coating thickness and surface roughness increased with sodium silicate concentration in the electrolyte. A glaze like Si rich structure and its increase with Si rate was evident in the outermost region of the coating.

The in vivo histological and ultrastructural analysis of periprosthetic tissue collected at time of revision surgery for failure of a 28 mm yttria-tetragonal zirconium oxide polycrystal (YTZP) ball head, 2 years after implantation is reported. Histologic analysis showed Zirconia particles, rounded to polygonal ranging from 2μm to more than 10μm intra or extra cellular in a stroma without vessels with few giant cells. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX) showed the different shape from rounded to polygonal of Zirconia. SEM analysis of the internal part of Zirconia ball head showed the presence of different fracture lines especially in the internal surface

Black and gray microarc oxidation coatings have been obtained on 2A70 Aluminum alloy in phosphate electrolyte with and without titania sol, respectively. The growth process of the microarc oxidation coating in the electrolyte with titania sol was investigated. The coating was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS) and X-ray. The coating thickness was measured by eddy current thickness meter. The results show that the titania sol increase the growth rate of microarc oxidation coating. In both cases the composition of coatings contain Al and O , and are mainly composed of γ- Al 2 O 3 and AlPO 4. Compared with the gray coating, large amount of Ti is found on the surface of black coating. The titania sol added in the electrolyte results in Ti in the coating, in the form of TiO and Al 2 TiO 5.

AbstractTransparent ZnO–MgO–Ag_2O coatings are formed on glasses by the polymer–salt method, and the optical properties of these coatings are studied. The optical properties of the films are studied by optical spectroscopy and photoluminescence. The structure of the oxide coatings is studied by X-ray diffraction analysis and scanning electron microscopy. It is found that an increase in the silver concentration in the coatings leads to a decrease in the band gap width of the material. It is shown that the films are characterized by a high transparency in the visible spectral region and can generate singlet oxygen under action of UV radiation (370 nm) and blue light (405 nm).

The amorphous-nanocrystal Ni-Mo deposits were obtained by electrodeposition in alkaline nickel carbonate solution. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and modern technologies were used to describe the content, microstructure and morphology of the deposits. The electrochemical characteristics of Ni-Mo deposits were electrolyzed in 33°C, 7 mol/L NaOH electrolytic solutions. The results showed that when I was 100 mA·cm−2, the hydrogen evolution potential of Ni-Mo21.76 was lower than amorphous Ni-Mo26.36 and 250mV lower than the nanocrystal Ni cathode. And the Ni-Mo deposits with more amorphous phase content would be in lower hydrogen evolution overpotential, a higher exchange current density, and a better electrolytic stability. These due to the amorphous combined with nanocrystal, lager contact surface and binding energy of Ni-Mo structure.

Dental implants play an important role in oral health. Titanium dental implants must endure the complex microflora environment of the oral cavity. Moreover, bacterial infections have been considered as one of the most important factors of implant failure. The issue of dental improvement through modification of chemical composition and surface treatment has received considerable critical attention. γ-TiAl as a novo biocompatible material revealed a slower corrosion rate in biological media rather Ti-6Al-4V. The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of Er,Cr:YSGG laser on γ-TiAl in comparison with sandblasted and acid-etched samples as the control groups and machined samples. Wettability, surface roughness, surface topography, scanning electron microscopy–energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer analysis of surface and subsurface of samples were investigated and bacteria counts of two periodontal bacterial strains ( Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans and Eikenella corrodens) were evaluated on the Er,Cr:YSGG laser surface-treated sandblasted and acid-etched and machined samples. The results of this investigation show that Er,Cr:YSGG laser surface treatment affects surface roughness, surface topography, wettability, chemical composition of the surface and bacteria count. Scanning electron microscopy–energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer analysis of the sample revealed the increment of titanium and oxygen content and reduction of aluminum content in the surface and subsurface layer. A. actinomycetemcomitans and E. corrodens count were found from the lowest level to highest in the sandblasted and acid-etched samples, laser samples and machined samples, respectively. Using controlled parameters of Er,Cr:YSGG laser ensured no significant adverse alteration. The findings to emerge from this study revealed the significant correlation between microbial count and wettability. Furthermore, the contact angle strongly correlated with surface roughness.

Surface roughness and area play important role especially in deposition and reaction of the catalyst in the catalytic converter substrate. The aim of this paper is to show the modification of surface roughness and area of FeCrAl substrate for catalytic converter using ultrasonic method. The method was conducted by agitating the FeCrAl in 10 minutes 35 kHz ultrasonic cleaning bath. The  surface roughness, morphology, and chemical components of FeCrAl catalytic converter substrate after ultrasonic treatment were analyzed using atomic force microscope (AFM) and examined with scanning electron microscope (SEM) in combination with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The ultrasonic treatment assisted with Al2O3 powders successfully increased the roughness and surface area of FeCrAl better than SiC powders.

Ti6Al4V samples obtained by selective laser melting were subjected to acid treatment, chemical oxidation in hydrogen peroxide solution and subsequent thermochemical treatment. The effect of temperature and time of acid etching of Ti6Al4V samples on surface roughness, morphology, topography and chemical and phase composition after the thermochemical treatment was studied. The surfaces were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and contact profilometry. Pore and protrusion sizes were measured. Acid etching modified the elemental composition and surface roughness of the alloy. Temperature had a greater influence on the morphology, topography and surface roughness of samples than time. Increases in roughness values were observed when applying successive chemical oxidation and thermochemical treatment compared to the values observed on surfaces with acid etching. After the thermochemical treatment, the samples with acid etching at a temperature of 80 °C showed a multiscale topography. In addition, a network-shaped structure was obtained on all surfaces, both on their protrusions and pores previously formed during the acid etching.
