Development of Biomimetic NiTi Alloy: Influence of Thermo-Chemical Treatment on the Physical, Mechanical and Biological Behavior.

ABSTRACT: A bioactive layer, free of nickel, has been performed for its greater acceptability and reliability in clinical applications for NiTi shape memory alloys. In the first step, a safe barrier against Ni release has been produced on the surface by means of a thicker rutile/anastase protective layer free of nickel. In the second step, a sodium alkaline titanate hydrogel, which has the ability to induce apatite formation, has been performed from oxidized surface. An improvement of host tissue-implant integration has been achieved in terms of Ni ions release and the bioactivity of the treated NiTi alloys has been corroborated with both in vitro and in vivo studies. The transformation temperatures (As, Af, Ms, and Mf), as well as the critical stresses (σβ⇔M), have been slightly changed due to this surface modification. Consequently, this fact must be taken into account in order to design new surface modification on NiTi implants.

Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene: Influence of the Chemical, Physical and Mechanical Properties on the Wear Behavior. A Review.

Project description:Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) is the most common bearing material in total joint arthroplasty due to its unique combination of superior mechanical properties and wear resistance over other polymers. A great deal of research in recent decades has focused on further improving its performances, in order to provide durable implants in young and active patients. From "historical", gamma-air sterilized polyethylenes, to the so-called first and second generation of highly crosslinked materials, a variety of different formulations have progressively appeared in the market. This paper reviews the structure-properties relationship of these materials, with a particular emphasis on the in vitro and in vivo wear performances, through an analysis of the existing literature.

Acousto-thermo-mechanical deformation of hydrogels coupled with chemical diffusion.

Project description:We develop an acousto-thermo-mechanical theory for nonlinear (large) deformation of temperature-sensitive hydrogels subjected to temperature and ultrasonic inputs, with diffusion mass transport driven by osmotic pressure accounted for. On the basis of the strain energy due to network stretching, the mixing energy of polymers and small molecules, the Cauchy stress of the deformed hydrogel can be obtained. The acoustic radiation stress generated by the ultrasonic inputs is incorporated into the Cauchy stress to give the constitutive equations of the acousto-thermal-mechanical hydrogel. The mixing energy contains an interaction parameter as a function of temperature and polymer concentration so that hydrogel deformation is temperature dependent. By employing the incompressible condition of polymers and molecules, both the temperature and acoustic radiation stress contribute to osmotic pressure, inducing hydrogel swelling (or shrinking). Specifically, for a temperature-sensitive hydrogel layer immersed in solvent, its acoustic-triggered large deformation is comprehensively analysed under different boundary conditions (e.g. free swelling, uniaxial constraint and biaxial constraint).

Thermo-Mechanical Behavior of Poly(ether ether ketone): Experiments and Modeling.

Project description:Observations are reported on poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK) in uniaxial tensile tests, relaxation tests and creep tests with various stresses in a wide interval of temperatures ranging from room temperature to 180 °C. Constitutive equations are developed for the thermo-mechanical behavior of PEEK under uniaxial deformation. Adjustable parameters in the governing equations are found by matching the experimental data. Good agreement is demonstrated between the observations and results of numerical simulation. It is shown that the activation energies for the elastoplastic, viscoelastic and viscoelastoplastic responses adopt similar values at temperatures above the glass transition point.

Small-scale mechanical behavior of a eutectic high entropy alloy.

Project description:Eutectic high entropy alloys, with lamellar arrangement of solid solution phases, represent a new paradigm for simultaneously achieving high strength and ductility, thereby circumventing this well-known trade-off in conventional alloys. However, dynamic strengthening mechanisms and phase-boundary interactions during external loading remain unclear for these eutectic systems. In this study, small-scale mechanical behavior was evaluated for AlCoCrFeNi2.1 eutectic high entropy alloy, consisting of a lamellar arrangement of L12 and B2 solid-solution phases. The ultimate tensile strength was 1165 MPa with ductility of ~18% and ultimate compressive strength was 1863 MPa with a total compressive fracture strain of ~34%. Dual mode fracture was observed with ductile failure for L12 phase and brittle mode for B2 phase. Phase-specific mechanical tests using nano-indentation and micro-pillar compression showed higher hardness and strength and larger strain rate sensitivity for B2 compared with L12. Micro-pillars on B2 phase deformed by plastic barreling while L12 micro-pillars showed high density of slip steps due to activation of more slip systems and homogenous plastic flow. Mixed micro-pillars containing both the phases exhibited dual yielding behavior while the interface between L12 and B2 was well preserved without any sign of separation or cracking. Phase-specific friction analysis revealed higher coefficient of friction for B2 compared to L12. These results will pave the way for fundamental understanding of phase-specific contribution to bulk mechanical response of concentrated alloys and help in designing structural materials with high fracture toughness.

The physical-mechanical behavior and chemical bonding nature of poly-N-vinylpyrrolidone modified cement concrete.

Project description:In this study, the various amounts of poly-N-vinylpyrrolidone (PVPr) were added to the cement paste, and some parameters - flowing, initial and final setting points, water absorption, compressive strength, and flexural strength were determined. The concrete containing 0.8% PVPr exhibited high water absorption, specifically, at 14 and 28 days, increased from 15.65% to 20.71% and from 16.74% to 21.67%, respectively. The final setting time increased from 238 min to 261 min. It was determined that the compressive strength of the cement mortar increased from 54.8 MPa to 58.5 MPa when the PVPr content was 0.8-1.0%. The flexural strength also improved due to the presence of PVPr, increasing from 11.58 MPa to 14.27 MPa. According to the FTIR characterization, the PVPr macromolecule interacts with Ca2+ and Al3+ ions. TGA analysis reveals that the chemical interaction of PVPr with calcium and aluminum ions limits its mass loss up to 4-5% until 400 °C.

Nanotopography Evaluation of NiTi Alloy Exposed to Artificial Saliva and Different Mouthwashes.

Project description:Nitinol (NiTi) alloy is a widely used material for the production of orthodontic archwires. Its corrosion behavior in conditions that exist in the oral cavity still remains a great characterization challenge. The motivation behind this work is to reveal the influence of commercially available mouthwashes on NiTi orthodontic archwires by performing non-electrochemical corrosion tests and quantifying the changes in the nanotopography of commercially available NiTi orthodontic wires. In this study, we examined the behavior of NiTi alloy archwires exposed for 21.5 days to different corrosive media: artificial saliva, Eludril®, Aquafresh®, and Listerine®. The corrosion was characterized by contact mode atomic force microscopy (AFM) before and after the corrosion tests. A novel analysis methodology was developed to obtain insight into locations of material gain or material loss based on standard surface roughness parameters Sa, Sdr, Ssk, and S10z. The developed methodology revealed that fluoride-containing mouthwashes (Aquafresh® and Listerine®) dominantly cause material loss, while chloride-containing mouthwash (Eludril®) can cause both material loss and material gain. The sample exposed to artificial saliva did not display significant changes in any parameter.

Influence of ordered L1<sub>2</sub> precipitation on strain-rate dependent mechanical behavior in a eutectic high entropy alloy.

Project description:Recent studies indicate that eutectic high-entropy alloys can simultaneously possess high strength and high ductility, which have potential industrial applications. The present study focuses on Al0.7CoCrFeNi, a lamellar dual-phase (fcc + B2) precipitation-strengthenable eutectic high entropy alloy. This alloy exhibits an fcc + B2 (B2 with bcc nano-precipitates) microstructure resulting in a combination of the soft and ductile fcc phase together with hard B2 phase. Low temperature annealing leads to the precipitation of ordered L12 intermetallic precipitates within the fcc resulting in enhanced strength. The strengthening contribution due to fine scale L12 is modeled using Orowan dislocation bowing and by-pass mechanism. The alloy was tested under quasi-static (strain-rate = 10-3 s-1) tensile loading and dynamic (strain-rate = 103 s-1) compressive loading. Due to the fine lamellar microstructure with a large number of fcc-bcc interfaces, the alloy show relatively high flow-stresses, ~1400 MPa under quasi-static loading and in excess of 1800 MPa under dynamic loading. Interestingly, the coherent nano-scale L12 precipitate caused a significant rise in the yield strength, without affecting the strain rate sensitivity (SRS) significantly. These lamellar structures had higher work hardening due to their capability for easily storing higher dislocation densities. The back-stresses from the coherent L12 precipitate were insufficient to cause improvement in twin nucleation, owing to elevated twinning stress under quasi-static testing. However, under dynamic testing high density of twins were observed.

One-step deposition of antibacterial Ag@Pdop hybrid films on an NiTi alloy.

Project description:In this study, by one-step immersion, silver aggregates enwrapped in a polydopamine (Pdop) film (Ag@Pdop hybrid film) were deposited onto a nickel-titanium (NiTi) surface. The Ag aggregates in the Ag@Pdop hybrid films were formed through burst formation, following the Ostwald ripening and oriented attachment of Ag nanoparticles (NPs). As the coating time was increased, thickening of the Pdop film covered on the Ag aggregates could affect the antibacterial ability and biocompatibility of the Ag@Pdop hybrid films. When comprehensively comparing the experimental results, the film prepared for 12 h (Ag@12Pdop) exhibited excellent antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and ideal cytocompatibility with human bone mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs). In addition, Ag@12Pdop exhibited better anticorrosion performance than polished NiTi in Hank's solution. Meanwhile, Ag@12Pdop showed sustainable Ag release and effectively inhibited the leaching of nickel (Ni) from the NiTi substrate. In this study, a simple method to fabricate Ag-containing films has been presented. The Ag@Pdop hybrid film may be able to significantly prevent infections induced by implantations.

Microstructural Characterization and Mechanical Behavior of NiTi Shape Memory Alloys Ultrasonic Joints Using Cu Interlayer.

Project description:NiTi shape memory alloys (SMAs) are a class of functional materials which can be significantly deformed and recover their original shape via a reversible martensitic phase transformation. Developing effective joining techniques can expand the application of SMAs in the medical and engineering fields. In this study, ultrasonic spot welding (USW), a solid-state joining technique, was used to join NiTi sheets using a Cu interlayer in between the two joining sheets. The influence of USW process on the microstructural characteristics and mechanical behavior of the NiTi joints was investigated. Compared with conventional fusion welding techniques, no intermetallic compounds formed in the joints, which is extreme importance for this particular class of alloys. The joining mechanisms involve a combination of shear plastic deformation, mechanical interlocking and formation of micro-welds. A better bonding interface was obtained with higher welding energy levels, which contributed to a higher tensile load. An interfacial fracture mode occurred and the fracture surfaces exhibited both brittle and ductile-like characteristics with the existence of tear ridges and dimples. The fracture initiated at the weak region of the joint border and then propagated through it, leading to tearing of Cu foil at the fracture interface.
