Caries progression and inhibition in human and bovine root dentine in situ

Since the use of bovine instead of human dentine to evaluate cariogenic and anticariogenic substances is not well established, this in situ study was conducted. Eleven volunteers wore palatal acrylic devices containing 4 dentine slabs (2 human and 2 bovine). Sucrose solution (20%) was dripped over all slabs 4 times a day, simulating a cariogenic challenge. Dentifrice slurries, fluoridated or not, were dripped over specified dentine slabs 3 times a day to evaluate caries reduction. After 14 days, the biofilm formed on the dentine slabs was collected for microbiological analysis. In dentine, mineral loss (DeltaZ) and lesion depth (LD) were determined by cross-sectional microhardness and by polarized light microscopy, respectively. The total streptococci and mutans streptococci counts in the biofilm formed either on human or on bovine slabs, whether treated or not with fluoride dentifrice, were not statistically different. The DeltaZ and the LID values of dentine treated with fluoride dentifrice were significantly lower than the values of dentine treated with non-fluoride dentifrice. The differences in the DeltaZ and LD values between the human and bovine dentine were not statistically significant. The results suggest that bovine dentine can be used instead of human to evaluate caries development and inhibition. Copyright (C) 2003 S. Karger AG, Basel.

Efeito da aplicação do fluido de corte na usinagem da superliga Nimonic 80A

The nickel alloys have a chemical composition with high tenor of alloy elements which are responsible for the material's mechanical and thermal properties, but also are the main causative of problems during the machining, making the process difficult. The objective of this work is the study of the machining by external cylindrical turning of the nickel based alloy Nimonic 80A, seeking the machining optimization of this alloy, seeking the best condition of lubricant fluid use, providing real increases of productivity without the need of investments in new production means. Besides, the results of this work should offer more detailed information regarding the behavior of this alloy in relation to machining by turning. The machining experiences were accomplished in a specimen of the nickel alloy, considering the machining parameters: cutting speed (75 and 90 m/min), cutting depth (0,8 mm) and feed rate (0,15 and 0,18 mm/v). The valuations were accomplished in a CNC lathe and tools with of hard metal inserts. After each stage of the turning the measures of the cutting length were accomplished, of the waste of the tools through a magnifying glass (8x) and the roughness of the specimen evaluated in each phase of the process, with the aid of a portable roughness meter. Through light optical microscopy it was possible to observe the wear of the cutting tools for each appraised condition. The roughness values, Ra and Ry, for the appraised conditions were always superiors to the theoretical values. After analysis of the results it was possible to end that, the best acting for this work strip tested it was obtained for ap=0,8mm: f=0,15mm/rev and VC=75m/min, what resulted in a larger cutting length (1811 m)

O estudo da usinagem em torneamento da superliga à base de níquel Pyromet 31v

The search for materials with higher properties and characteristics (wear resistance, oxidation, corrosion, etc.) has driven research of various materials. Among the materials that are being studied with such properties and characteristics are super alloys based on nickel which has an important role in the aeronautical, automotive, marine, production of gas turbines and now in space vehicles, rocket engineering , experimental aircraft, nuclear reactors, steam-powered plants, petrochemical and many other applications because besides having all the characteristics and properties mentioned above also have an excellent performance at high temperatures. The super alloy based on nickel studied in this work is the super alloy Pyromet 31v normally used in the manufacture of exhaust valves in common engines and diesel engines of high power by cater requirements such as mechanical strength and corrosion resistance at temperatures of approximately 815 ° C. The objective of this work is to produce results to demonstrate more specific information about the real influence of coatings on cutting tools and cutting fluids in turning and thus promote the optimization of the machining of these alloys. The super alloy Pyromet 31v was processed through turning, being performed with various machining parameters such as cutting speed, feed rate, depth in conditions of Minimum Amount of Fluid (MAF), abundant fluid, cutting tools with coating and without coating in early in his work life and with wear. After turning were obtained several samples of chips and the part generated during the machining process, was measured roughness of the material, subsequently made macrostructural analysis of the tools used order to detect possible wear and microstructural analysis of samples collected being that the latter was used for Optical Microscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and ...

Análise microestrutural de tubos API P110, para prospecção de petróleo e gás, soldados pelo processo HF/ERW

On the grounds of the great advances achieved over recent years, the process HF/ERW (High-Frequency/Electric Resistance Welding)welded pipe have played an active role in the oil and gas industry for deep water applications, at high and extremely low temperatures, under high pressure and in highly corrosive environments, gradually replacing manufactured pipes by other processes. However, studies have shown that defects in the welded joints are a the leading causes of pipelines failures, which has required the determination of toughness values in this region, in compliance with the strict recommendations of the codes and standards with manufacturers and construction companies, on the oil and gas sector. As part of the validation process required toughness values, this research project focuses on a microstructural analysis in HF / ERW tubes microalloyed, steel grade API 5CT P110, designed to explore oil and gas in deep waters, the subject of strategic relevance to the country because of the recent discoveries in the Santos mega fields: Tupi and Libra (pre-salt). In this scientific work will be presented and discussed the results of mechanical tensile and Charpy, a few CTOD tests curves (showing the trend of toughness values to be obtained), and the microstructures of the base material obtained by optical microscopy, with special emphasis on the formation of nonmetallic inclusions in the welded joint

Preparação de substratos de carbeto de silício para fins aeroespaciais

This conclusion thesis has the objective of produce substrates of Silicon Carbide from the powder of SiC for aerospace use. The powder of SiC was pressed in cylindrical form by the process called “wet way”. For the inicial pressing process was used a uniaxial squeezer and after that was used a isostatic squeezer, after that the samples were synthesized. The next step was the machining and polishing to improve the features of the surface of the sample. Then the roughness was measured, as also the Arquimedes method and optical microscopy and scanning eletron microscopy. Some innovations were done, in one of the lots little vacancys were done with organic material or silicon to reduce the weight of the sample; and the other innovation were the use of a slip film of SiC on the surface of the sample, that were after synthesized with LASER to reduce the roughness, in this samples the roughness were reduce in 50 % if compared with the other samples
