The main fields of operation for Metallurgical and Materials Engineering are production of engineering materials, defining and improving their features, as well as developing new materials to meet the expectations at every aspect of life and the users from these aspects. Founded in 2004 and graduated its 10th-semester alumni in 2018, our Department also obtained MÜDEK accreditation in the latter year. Offering the opportunity to hold an internationally valid diploma through the accreditation in question, our Department has highly qualified and experienced Academic Staff. Many of the courses offered at our Department are supported with various practice sessions, and internship studies in summer. This way, we help our students become better-equipped engineers for their future professional lives. With the Cooperative Education curriculum that entered into effect in 2019, students may volunteer to work at contracted companies for a period of six months with no extensions to their period of study.

Abstract

In this study, the contact area between the glass ceramic containing apatite [Ca-10(PO4)6(O,F-2)] and wollastonite [CaO center dot SiO2] crystals (A-W glass ceramic) and feldspathic dental porcelain was characterized using scanning electron microscope and energy dispersive spectroscopy. Alumina-added A W glass ceramics were prepared by sintering glass compacts in the MgO-CaO-SiO2-P2O5-Al2O3 system at 1100 degrees C. Commercially available dental porcelains for alumina frameworks were applied on the A-W glass ceramic specimen by brushing and carving, and then fired at 960 degrees C using an electrically heated vacuum-furnace. Results revealed that veneering of feldspathic dental porcelain on alumina-added A-W glass ceramic is possible by an interaction between them, with which a diffusion process involving i) seperation of the phases forming the alumina-added A-W glass ceramic, ii) chemical diffusion of elements between alumina-added A-W glass ceramic and feldspathic dental porcelain, and iii) formation of an interface layer, is taking place. The system studied has interfacial characteristics similar to the commercially available dental materials currently used in restorative dentistry. Hence, it may be further processed for potential clinical applications.
