Abstract [en]

Eggshells are a biowaste and potential bio-ceramic due to the major calcium carbonate (CaCO3) content, which offers bioactivity, bioresorbability, biocompatibility, and antibacterial properties. To benefit from the properties of the eggshell, this study explores the combined use of ceramic (eggshell) and ductile metal (CP-Ti as a hexagonal prism) as composites. A novel Ti-eggshell composite was fabricated by combining additive manufacturing and powder metallurgical routes. The novel Ti-eggshell composites were characterized for structural and microstructural analysis using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The hexagonal Ti structs deform marginally during composite manufacturing (minor variations in the struct dimensions may be observed) and the composites show the following compressive properties: yield strength of 123 ± 34 MPa and a Young's modulus of 47 ± 2 GPa within the range of natural human cortical bone. In addition, the Ti-eggshell composite offers non-cytotoxic and antibacterial behavior when tested with gram-negative-Pseudomonas. Aeruginosa and gram-positive-Staphylococcus. Aureus bacteria suggesting that such novel Ti-eggshell composites can be suitable members for bioimplant applications. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd and Techna Group S.r.l.

Abstract [en]

The present work is a comparative study on the TiC-430 L ferritic stainless steel (FSS) cermets manufactured via two powder metallurgical processes, namely, conventional spark plasma sintering (SPS) and metal additive manufacturing (AM) process (laser powder-bed fusion process (LPBF)/selective laser melting (SLM)). The rescanning strategy has been used to preheat and melt the powder bed with different laser parameters during the SLM process to suppress the presence of residual thermal stress leading to the fabrication of cermets without cracks. The as-fabricated SPS samples (95 %) show a relatively lower density than the SLM-built parts (~98 %). A study of their mechanical properties such as hardness, compressive strength, and fracture toughness was conducted and discussed in detail. Further, the corrosion behavior of the fabricated cermets parts was evaluated in 3.5 wt% NaCl. The SLM-prepared specimens reveal finer microstructures and better mechanical properties (compressive strength and fracture toughness) due to the presence of fine microstructure. Furthermore, the corrosion current density of TiC-430 L fss-based cermets fabricated by SLM is approximately 270 times lower than that of cermets parts fabricated by SPS, indicating excellent corrosion resistance. On the other hand, the hardness shows an opposite trend, where the SPS samples show the maximum hardness as compared to the SLM counterparts due to the presence of hard and coarse TiC particles along with some metallic carbides formed during the SPS process. The results reveal that AM processes not only can fabricate cermets with intricate shapes but can also fabricate them with improved mechanical and corrosion properties.

Abstract [en]

Two different grades, WC-20 vol.% Ni and WC-20 vol.% Co cemented carbides, respectively were systematically investigated concerning their microstructure, binder composition, and corrosion behavior. SEM-EBSD analysis verified that both grades have similar WC grain sizes (0.9–1.1 μm). AES analysis confirmed that the binder phase of the respective grade is an alloy of Ni-W and Co-W and that the concentration of W in the Ni- and Co-binder is 21 and 10 at. %, respectively. In synthetic mine water (SMW), the EIS behavior of WC-Ni(W) at the open circuit potential (OCP) conditions was studied for different exposure periods (up to 120 h). The EIS data fitting estimates low capacitance and high charge transfer resistance (Rct) values, which indicate that the passive film formed on WC-Ni(W) is thin and exhibits high corrosion resistance. At the OCP and potentiostatic-passive conditions, SEM investigations confirm the uncorroded microstructure of the WC-Ni(W). The AR-XPS studies confirmed the formation of an extremely thin (0.25 nm) WO3 passive film is responsible for the high corrosion resistance of WC-Ni(W), at OCP conditions. However, above the transpassive potential, the microstructure instability of WC-Ni(W) was observed, i.e., corroded morphology of both WC grains and Ni(W) binder. The electrochemical parameters, Rct, corrosion current density, and charge density values, confirmed that the WC-Ni(W) is a far better alternative than the WC-Co(W) for application in SMW.

Abstract [en]

This study deals with the tribological behavior of the TiC-430 L SS cermets fabricated via an additive manufacturing process such as laser powder bed fusion/selective laser melting. A gradient microstructure (finer and coarser morphology) can be observed in the fabricated parts due to SLM's complex thermal history. Using Rockwell indenter, single and multiple passes scratch tests have been performed as a function of applied load to study the wear mechanism of the binder and matrix phase. A surface 3D profilometer was used to analyze the scratch track variation in terms of scratch width and depth. Scanning Electron microscopy (SEM) analysis was performed on the scratched cermet parts to study the wear mechanism and microstructural analysis. It has been observed that the scratch hardness increases with increasing load and the same decreases with increasing the number of passes. Similarly, the coefficient of friction increases with increasing load. Cermets with complex microstructural features exhibit high wear resistance under low loads and for higher loads, multiple passes can lead to tribolayer formation.

Abstract [en]

CoCrFeMnNi high-entropy alloy (HEA)/AISI 316L stainless steel bimetals were additively fabricated using selective laser melting (SLM). The bimetal structure comprises three regions, i.e., CoCrFeMnNi-HEA, AISI 316L stainless steel, and an interface between CoCrFeMnNi-HEA, AISI 316L stainless steel. SLM processing results in the formation of columnar grains extending over many built layers epitaxially in a preferential growth direction. The Vickers microhardness ranges mainly between 250 and 275 HV0.5 in all three observed regions. In addition, only a marginal variation in tensile strength is observed between the CoCrFeMnNi-HEA, AISI 316L stainless steel, and the CoCrFeMnNi-HEA/AISI 316L stainless steel bimetal. The unique higher work hardening behavior of the CoCrFeMnNi-HEA prevents failure along the CoCrFeMnNi-HEA side in the bimetallic structure during plastic deformation. The CoCrFeMnNi-HEA shows higher pitting susceptibility than the AISI 316L stainless steel in the bimetallic structure due to its lower pitting potential. Further, the presence of pores and lack of fusion spots further decreases the pitting resistance of the CoCrFeMnNi-HEA. Hence, the bimetal is prone to more preferential corrosion attack along the CoCrFeMnNi-HEA side due to its anodic behavior and defects.

Abstract [en]

Ti-35Nb-7Zr-5Ta (TNZT) alloy has been fabricated by selective laser melting (SLM) at different build orientations with respect to the base plate and the resulting disparities in the grain shape, size, preferred orientations and lattice strains have been determined. Potentiodynamic polarization tests performed under in vitro conditions indicated that the specimens built at 45° orientation showed the highest polarization resistance (24.5 kΩ cm2) and lowest rate of corrosion (0.23 μA cm−2) compared to the specimens built at other orientations. The corrosion behaviors of the SLM specimens have been correlated with their microstructural features and further compared with that of its spark plasma sintered (SPS) counterpart and commercial alloys such as Ti6Al4V and Ti6Al7Nb. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and potentiostatic measurements have revealed that the passive film forming on the TNZT sample at 45° orientation is highly stable and more protective than that of the other samples. Auger electron spectroscopy has confirmed that both Ti and Nb participate actively in the passive film formation on the SLM TNZT alloy.

Abstract [en]

The corrosion resistance and passive film properties of Ni60Nb30Ta10 metallic glass and partially crystallized ribbon were investigated in 11.5 M nitric acid. The XRD study confirms the formation of nano-crystalline α-Ni in the amorphous matrix during crystallization at 650 °C under vacuum for 1 h. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, potentiodynamic polarization, and Mott-Schottky studies on the metallic glass exhibited higher corrosion resistance compared to the partially crystallized ribbon. XPS confirms the enrichment of Nb2O5 and Ta2O5 in the passive film of the glassy structure, while α-Ni is depleted in a partially crystallized alloy that affected the corrosion resistance.

Abstract [en]

The microstructural evolutions in terms of dislocation density, annealing twin density as well as with respect to microstructural changes due to recrystallization and grain growth were investigated in pure Ni, equiatomic FeNiCo alloy, and FeNiCoCrMn high entropy alloy (HEA) during the thermomechanical process. All samples were single phase and showed a face-centered cubic (FCC) lattice structure. This was maintained during thermomechanical processing comprising of cold swaging by 85% reduction of cross-sectional area and subsequent annealing at 800 °C. The level of dislocation accumulation during cold swaging increased with the number of constituent elements. The FeNiCoCrMn HEA obtained the highest dislocation density, followed by the FeNiCo and Ni, respectively. After the annealing at 800 °C for 0.5 h, all samples achieved the large fraction of recrystallized grains with minor fraction of substructured grains and no deformed grain. The FeNiCoCrMn HEA obtained the smallest recrystallized grain size (∼5 μm) after the annealing at 800 °C for 0.5 h. This could be a result of the highest dislocation density generated during cold swaging prior to the annealing. The prolonged annealing at 800 °C for up to 24 h led to a grain growth for all the samples, however, at different growth rates. The FeNiCoCrMn HEA revealed the lowest rate of grain growth, but the microstructural changes during the annealing were not significantly different between the FeNiCo and Ni samples. Besides the effect of the number of constituent elements, the type and the combination of constituent elements have an effect on the microstructural evolution during the annealing.
