Structural Characteristics in Cobalt Based Alloys
Journal Title: Analele Universitatii "Dunarea de Jos" din Galati. Fascicula IX, Metalurgie si Stiinta Materialelor - Year 2008, Vol 31, Issue 2
Abstract
In the present paper there are presented results of investigations on samples of partially removable denture made of cobalt base alloys (Co-Cr-Mo) regarding specific structural analysis: determination of structural phases by quantitative and qualitative microstructural analysis, microhardness determinations versus different casting parameters [1,2,3,4]. By metallographic analysis some important structural aspects may be pointed: the presence of lace eutectic and carbides with discontinuous precipitation in metallic matrix, non-uniform dendritic structure with interdendritic micro-porosities, interdendritic cracks in a structure with fine lace eutectic. Different types of welding were tested, which gave both structural modification and morphology of constituents. Structural modifications which can be made for repairing of prosthesis may diminish mechanical properties of prosthesis, microhardness values of two cobalt base alloys welded by laser technology being high, which may confer a brittle behaviour.

A Review on the Thermophysical Properties of Water-Based Nanofluids and their Hybrids
A nanofluid is a solid–liquid mixture which consists of nanoparticles and a base liquid. Nanoparticles are basically metal (Cu, Ni, Al, etc.), oxides (Al2O3, TiO2, CuO, SiO2, Fe2O3, Fe3O4, BaTiO3, etc.) and some other co...
Study of the ThermoMechanical Treatment Post-Deformation Maintaining Time Influence on the Mechanical Characteristics of the MicroAlloyed Steels

The Structural Design Improvement of a Twin-Hull Ship
The paper is focused on the strength analysis of the structure of twin-hull ships, particularly a passenger catamaran. Catamarans have some advantages against conventional monohulls: larger deck area and cargo volume, be...
Investigation of Elastic Constants and Moduli of Binary Alloys by Statistical Moment Method
The moment method in statistical dynamics is used to study the dynamical elastic constants (C11, C12, C44), Young’s modulus (E), bulk modulus (K), and shear modulus (G) of binary alloys. Lattice mechanical properties of...
