Novel Hierarchical Micro/Nano Modified Surfaces for Dental Implants
Journal Title: Acta Marisiensis. Seria Technologica - Year 2018, Vol 15, Issue 1
Abstract
Present paper presents the modification at nano scale level of the surfaces of Ti6Al4V alloy that were previously modified at micro scale level by acid etching (AE) or by sand blasting with large grit and acid etching (SLA). Continuous, self-ordered nanostructured (nanoporous/nanotubular) oxide layers superimposed onto micro rough topographies were developed by using electrochemical anodization in fluoride based solutions, and optimized process parameters. Novel hierarchical micro/nano modified surfaces, with well developed oxide nanotubes of 40-110 nm in diameter, were synthesis by anodization in 1M H3PO4 + 0.4 wt% HF electrolyte, at anodization potential of 24 V, applied with a potential ramp of 0.08 V/s.

Distribution Network Reconfiguration for Power Loss Minimization and Voltage Profile Enhancement Using Ant Lion Algorithm
Distribution networks are designed as a ring and operated as a radial form. Therefore, the reconfiguration is a simple and cost-effective way to use existing facilities without the need for any new equipment in distribut...
Qualitative Metrics for Development Technologies Evaluation in Database-driven Information Systems
Database-driven information systems are nowadays widespread in various application domains. The technologies employed to manage the database itself are generally built on the same data model – the relational model – and...
Usage of Methyl Ester Produced from Waste Grape and MN Additive as Alternative Diesel Fuel
In this study, methyl ester was produced from waste grape pulp sources. The produced methyl ester was mixed with diesel in different proportions, and was tested for engine performance and emission. It was found that with...
