Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 6A Study on Microstructural Characterization of the Interface Between Apatite-Wollastonite Based Glass Ceramic and Feldspathic Dental Porcelain(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2016) Pekkan, Gurel; Pekkan, Keriman; Park, Jongee; Ozturk, AbdullahIn 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.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 12A Comprehensive Characterization of the Effect of Spatter Powder on In939 Parts Fabricated by Laser Powder Bed Fusion(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2023) Dogu, Merve Nur; Mussatto, Andre; Yalcin, Mustafa Alp; Ozer, Seren; Davut, Kemal; Obeidi, Muhannad Ahmed; Brabazon, DermotThis study is focused on a comprehensive characterization of virgin and spatter IN939 powders and the effects of a certain amount of spatter powder on the part quality of IN939 fabricated by the L-PBF process. A brown tint coloration formed Al2O3 oxide, pores, a 124.4% increase in the average particle size, a 10.2% decrease in the powder circularity, and a 7.5% decrease in the powder aspect ratio were observed in the spatter powder. Additionally, higher average grain size and lower nanohardness were obtained for the spatter powder. In order to understand the effect of a certain amount of spatter powder on the part quality, 10 wt% spatter powder was mixed with the virgin powder. This addition was found to decrease the flowability of the powder. Moreover, this addition decreased relative density by around 0.3% and increased surface roughness by around 80.8% in the fabricated samples (termed as V and SV). On the other hand, there was no considerable microstructural, texture, microhardness, and nanohardness difference between V and SV samples, although the spatter powder addition caused a 30.2% increase in the average grain size of SV. The overall texture for both V and SV samples exhibit (00 1)//BD.
