  • Microstructures according to experimental conditions (pouring temperature, stirring current and stirring time) and hardness according to aging time were investigated for A356 cast aluminum alloy and 7075 wrought aluminum alloy. In pouring temperature control, grains became larger and non-uniform at high temperature, however dendritic shapes were shown at lower temperature. In stirring current control, dendritic grains were not destroyed enough at lower current, however fine grains were agglomerated at higher current. And, in stirring time control, grains were more globular but grew larger and larger with the stirring time increasing.

  • The weld zone of dissimilar formed Al alloy exhibited the complex structure of the two materials and mainly composed of the retreating side material. The mechanical properties were also depended on the dominant microstructure of the weld zone with welding conditions. The different mechanical properties of weld zone with welding conditions were related to the behavior of the precipitates of wrought Al alloy and Si particles of cast Al alloy. The higher mechanical properties of weld were acquired when relatively harder material, wrought Al alloy, was fixed at the retreating side.

  • This paper will describe a powder and processing method that facilitates single press-single sintered densities approaching $7.5g/cm^3$. At this sintered density, mechanical properties of the powder metal (P/M) component are significantly improved over current P/M technologies and begin to approach the performance of wrought steels. High performance gears have the added requirement of rolling contact fatigue durability that is dependent upon localized density and thermal processing. Combining high density processing of engineered P/M materials with selective surface densification enables powder metal components to achieve rolling contact fatigue durability and mechanical property performance that satisfy the performance requirements of many high strength automotive transmission gears. Data will be presented that document P/M part performance in comparison to conventional wrought steel grades.

  • Ancorsteel 4300, a high performance Cr-Si-Ni-Mo steel, was unveiled two years ago as the first in a series of powder metallurgy alloys that will simulate wrought steel compositions. Advantages of this alloy include good compressibility, high hardenability, and excellent dimensional stability. More important, however, is that this alloy has the ability to be effectively sintered at $1120^{\circ}C$ and maintain oxygen contents below 500 ppm. This unique blend of performance and processing capabilities provides static and dynamic properties that exceed those of conventional powder metallurgy alloys and approach wrought gearing materials. A second Cr-Si-Ni-Mo alloy has now been developed that offers complimentary performance levels at a lower Mo content. This manuscript reviews properties of the two chromium steels with comparisons to traditional sinter-hardened and heat-treated powder metallurgy alloys.

  • The present study focuses on 7075 aluminum wrought alloy to investigate the potential industrial applications of thixoextrusion process. The microstructural evolution of 7075 aluminum wrought alloy for thixoextrusion has been investigated as a function of isothermal holding temperature and time in the partially remelted semisolid state. The results showed that the liquid fraction increased with increasing isothermal holding temperature and time while the average grain size was inversely proportional to isothermal holding temperature and time up to 5min. However, there was no big change of liquid fraction and average grain size with respect to isothermal holding temperature and time. The important fact that the liquid fraction and average grain size were almost uniform after 5 min holding time is considered very useful for thixoextrusion in terms of process control.

  • Statement of problem: In distal extension removable partial denture, the preservation of health of abutment teeth are very important, but they are always subjected to unfavorable stress. Purpose: The purpose of this study was performed to investigate the effects of abutment splinting and design of direct retainer on the stress distribution of abutments in unilateral distal extension removable partial dentures. Material and method: Abutments were splinted by different method. In group 1, autment teeth were not splinted, in group 2, canine and 1st premolar were splinted, and in group 3, canine, 1st and 2nd premolars were all splinted. Three different types of direct retainer such as Akers clasp, RPI clasp, and wrought wire clasp were designed. Strain was measured with Switch & Balance Unit(SB-10, Measurement Group Instruments Division, Raleigh USA) and Strain Indicator(P-3500, Measurement Group Instruments Division, Raleigh, USA) 15kg of vertical and oblique loads was applied at central fossa of missing 2nd molar area. Results : The strain on lingual side of 2nd premolar was the greatest, and abutment splinting induced decrease of strain on buccolingual side of 2nd premolar. The strain of loaded area was decreased by abutment splinting and there was no statistical difference of strain between Group2 and Group 3, and strain on 2nd premolar in wrought wire clasp was the least. Conclusion: Within the limitations of this study, splinting of two distal abutment teeth is enough for stress distribution widely, and wrought wire clasp was more benefitable than others.

  • To evaluate the microstructure of various combination clasp joint in removable partial denture, the auther selected framework alloys (Type IV gold alloy, Dentaurium, Ticonium 100) and wrought wires (gold alloy, Ticonium) for this study. Twelve series of combination joints were made by investment soldering technic and wrought wire embedded casting technic. All specimens were cut cross-sectionally and longitudinally, then examined with metallurgical microscope. The results were as follows; Some diffusion was observed in the properly constructed combination clasp joints. In soldered joints, empolying precious alloys were more favorable than non-precious alloys. In castion joints, assemblage of same alloy between framework and wrought wire was superior to other groups. Some impurities were observed in both joints by technical problems.

  • Bend test is one of the methods comparing the physical properties of the clasp wires. The type of bend test used in this investigation was the cantilever loading of a wrought wire. The purpose of this study was to compare the flexibility of a number of commonly used clasp wires, in according to gauge, alloy and heat treatment, under specific condition of load and deflection. Seven noble and one base metal wires were tested under three conditions as follows: (1) as received, (2) quenched (placed in an over at $700^{\circ}C$ for ten minutes and immediately quenched in water at room temperature.), (3) oven cooled (quencned as described, then placed in an oven at $450^{\circ}C$ for two minutes and uniformly slowly cooled to $250^{\circ}C$ in thirty minutes.) The basic test specimen consists of a sample 25 mm in length and 19, 18 gauge in diameter (17 gauge also in two alloys), and the wire was loaded in the form of straight cantilever beams. Force at 0.25 mm (0.01 inch) and 0.5 mm (0.02 inch) deflections for all samples were recorded. The results were as follows ; 1. Ticonium was least flexible and No. 2 was most flexible in according to gauge, alloy and heat treatment. 2. In most of precious wrought wire, the flexibility was increased, but there was no statistically significant differences between as-received and softened condition. 3. There was no statistically differences between as-received and hardened condition. 4. For each alloy, there were statistically significant differences in flexibility due to clasp diameter.
