RESUMO
Objetivo: Analizar la resistencia a la corrosión por picaduras de aceros inoxidables AISI 304 y AISI 420 en un medio que contiene cloruros (solu-ción de NaCl al 0,9 y 3,5%, en masa), así como su citotoxicidad, in vitro, en muestras con y sin corrosión por picaduras. Método: Estudio experimental. Se utilizaron técnicas de polarización potenciodinámica cíclica (PPC) para caracterizar el alcance y la forma del ataque corrosivo a las muestras. Se utilizó el método de difusión en agar y evaluación de la viabilidad de la línea celular NCTC clon 929 (CCIAL 020) para evaluar la citotoxicidad de las muestras de acero con y sin picaduras. Resultados: El acero AISI 304 presentó una resistencia a la corrosión superior al acero AISI 420. Los valores de potencial de picadura disminuyeron para ambos aceros cuando aumentó la concentración de cloruros en la solución agresiva. Hubo toxicidad celular moderada (grado 3 ISO 10993-5) en todas las muestras. Conclusión: Los resultados corroboraron las recomendaciones para evitar la inmersión innecesaria de instrumentos en soluciones salinas. La citotoxicidad moderada de estos aceros desaconseja su uso en dispositivos implantables, reservándolos solo para instrumentos quirúrgicos. (AU)
Objective: To analyze the pitting corrosion resistance of AISI 304 and AISI 420 stainless steels in chloride-containing medium (0.9 and 3.5% NaCl solution, by weight), as well as their cytotoxicity,in vitro, in samples with and without pitting corrosion. Method: This is an experimental study. Cyclic potentiodynamic polarization (CPP) techniques were used to characterize the extent and shape of the corrosive attack on the samples. The agar diffusion and viability evaluation method of the NCTC clone 929 cell line (CCIAL 020) was used to evaluate the cytotoxicity of samples of steels with and without pitting. Results: The AISI 304 steel showed superior corrosion resistance to the AISI 420 steel. The values of the pitting potentials decreased for both steels when the chloride concentration in the aggressive solution was increased. There was moderate cell toxicity (grade 3 ISO 10993-5) in all samples. Conclusions: The results corroborated the recommendations to avoid unnecessary immersion of the instruments in saline solutions. Moderate cytotoxicity to these steels contraindicates their use in implantable devices, only in surgical instruments. (AU)

BACKGROUND:Among the surface modification technologies of metal implants,micro-arc oxidation has been widely concerned for its convenience,low cost and ability to effectively adjust the microstructure and elements of surface coatings. OBJECTIVE:To summarize research advances in physical and chemical properties and biological activities of oxidation coatings prepared by micro-arc oxidation on different materials. METHODS:The articles about the effects of micro-arc oxidation on the biological activity of medical metals were searched in PubMed and Web of Science based on the English search terms"MAO,micro-arc oxidation,osseointegration,mechanical property,biological activity,angiogenesis,fibrogenesis".The search time was from January 2016 to December 2022.According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria,82 articles were finally retained for review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Micro-arc oxidation is a potential surface modification technology,which can greatly improve the success rate of implantation,and can be widely used in other fields.The specific reasons are as follows:(1)Micro-arc oxidation technology forms special porous morphology on the surface of materials,which can optimize the mechanical properties such as wear resistance and corrosion resistance,contributing to the reduction of the degradation rate of magnesium alloys.(2)Micro-arc oxidation technology can significantly enhance the bioactivity and improve the bioinertness of titanium and titanium alloys through the addition of strontium,hydroxyapatite and other metallic or nonmetallic substances to its porous morphology for helping elevate its osteogenic differentiation,angiogenesis,fibrogenesis and other biological activities.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND:Due to natural degradation,excellent biocompatibility and good mechanical properties,magnesium alloy has become a very valuable implant material in the biomedical field.However,the rapid degradation rate of magnesium alloy limits its further development and application. OBJECTIVE:To review the principle of the degradation of magnesium and its alloys in a physiological environment.The current research status of alloying elements selection is mainly introduced from the aspects of the safety of elements and their influence on the properties of magnesium and its alloys. METHODS:The articles were searched by using the databases of CNKI,PubMed,Web of Science and Elsevier.The key words were"magnesium(alloy),metal name(such as:bismuth(Bi),aluminum(Al)),corrosion,biocompatibility,metal toxicity,scaffold(stent)/screw"in Chinese and English.The search period was from 2013 to 2023.As a result,70 articles were applied for analysis after reading the contents of the articles. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Magnesium alloy has been widely studied in the medical field.Although some products have been applied in clinical practice,the high degradation rate of magnesium alloy in the human environment is still the main limitation of large-scale clinical application.The focus of future development is to control its corrosion rate.Alloying is a kind of method to improve the corrosion resistance of magnesium alloys,and various properties can also be improved by adding different alloy components.However,simple alloying cannot satisfy the pursuit of diversified properties of magnesium alloys.To develop multifunctional magnesium alloy products with excellent performance,it is necessary to combine various optimization methods,such as alloying and surface modification,to make up for the shortcomings of their respective methods in the future.In addition,the alloy structure updating with preparation process improvement is combined to enhance the properties of magnesium alloy.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND:The combination of machine learning and medical metal materials can make up for the inefficiency and high cost of traditional experiments and computational simulations,and quickly and accurately predict the characteristics of metal materials by analyzing large amounts of data,optimize material design and performance,and improve the safety and efficiency of medical applications. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the research progress and shortcomings of machine learning in the characteristics of medical materials. METHODS:The first author searched CNKI,PubMed,X-MOL,and Web of Science databases by computer to search all relevant articles from January 2013 to April 2023.The Chinese search terms were"machine learning of medical metal materials,medical titanium alloy,medical magnesium alloy,medical metal material properties".The English search terms were"machine learning medical metal materials,medical stainless steel alloy,medical cobalt-chromium alloy,medical titanium alloy,medical magnesium alloy".Finally,70 relevant articles were included for a summary. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The introduction of machine learning as a material design methodology has opened up new paradigms for material science research as the accessibility of large amounts of data generated by traditional experimental and computational simulation methods increases.(2)The machine learning workflow is divided into four main parts:data collection and preprocessing,feature engineering,model selection and training,and model evaluation,each of which is indispensable.(3)Medical metal materials are categorized into:stainless steel co-base alloys,cobalt-chromium alloys,titanium alloys,and magnesium alloys.For stainless steel co-base alloy,machine learning predicts its mechanical properties,to improve the generalization ability of machine learning.For cobalt-chromium alloy,machine learning predicts its mechanical properties,and it can conclude that cobalt-chromium alloy is the optimal material for hip implants.For titanium alloy,machine learning predicts its mechanical properties,and it can select the implant with the best mechanical properties.For magnesium alloy,machine learning predicts its corrosion resistance and mechanical properties;the ensemble model can accurately predict the mechanical properties of magnesium alloys,and the random forest model can predict the optimal elemental contents of magnesium alloys as vascular stents.(4)Machine learning has deficiencies in the field of medical materials.For example,the model is relatively lagging;the data failed to be standardized,and the generalization is low.To solve such problems,we should make full use of deep learning and segmentation algorithm technology,use unified standard data,and improve the model to increase the generalization ability.
RESUMO
Objective To study the corrosion-fatigue properties of a novel low modulus Ti-3Zr-2Sn-3Mo-25Nb(TLM)titanium alloy subjected to simulated body fluid(SBF).Methods Ti-6Al-4V(TC4)alloy was used as the control group.The electrochemical corrosion polarization curves of the two titanium alloys were measured in SBF.The pre-corroded TC4 and TLM titanium alloy samples were subjected to rotational bending fatigue tests.The loading stress amplitude and fatigue fracture cycle relationship was established using the experimental data,and the stress life curves were drawn.Subsequently,the fracture mechanism was analyzed by analyzing the corrosion fatigue micro-fracture morphology of the sample,and fatigue analysis on the titanium alloy sample was then conducted combined with the finite element software.Results The self-corrosion potential of the TC4 titanium alloy under stress annealing was lower than that of the TLM titanium alloy after heat treatment.The TLM titanium alloy was most sensitive to changes in cyclic stress.A comparison between the simulation and experimental results showed that the TC4 titanium alloy under stress annealing had a higher fatigue strength and stronger resistance to crack propagation than the TLM titanium alloy did after heat treatment,whereas its corrosion resistance was the opposite.Compared to the specimens without pre-corrosion treatment,the brittleness of the TLM titanium alloy increased,and its fatigue performance decreased after pre-immersion in SBF.Conclusions Through comparative analysis,the reliability of the test results proved to be high,and the COMSOL finite element software could effectively predict the fatigue life of titanium alloy materials.
RESUMO
An electrochemical investigation was conducted to evaluate the corrosion behaviour of Iron alloys such as EN-8 and 411143 in absence and in presence of microbes Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans. Linear polarization technique was employed to measure the Polarization Resistance and corrosion rates of two different ferrous metal samples. Polarization resistance (Rp) values of EN-8 were initially higher in the presence of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans than the values of 411143. Growth rate of the Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans was more and sustained longer period with EN-8 in the presence of media than in the case of alloy ‘411143’. It was observed that there was a 1.5 fold increase in corrosion rate in both the cases of EN-8 and 411143 in the presence of bacteria.High corrosion rates were recorded with the steel 41143 rather than the En-8 with respect to the optical density of the microbes. It was concluded that EN-8 was exhibited high resistance to the microbial attack.
RESUMO
In Purpose: The fabrication technique can influence the mechanical properties of Cobalt-Chromium (Co-Cr) dental alloys. Hence, the present study aims to determine the corrosion resistance and thermal expansion of alloys manufactured using three contemporary techniques. Material and Methods: A total of nine specimens of Co-Cr alloy were prepared according to ISO 22674 by each one of the three manufacturing processes (three in each process); conventional casting, direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) and milling (MIL). All these specimens were tested for coefficient of thermal expansion and corrosion resistance. The data was tabulated and analyzed statistically. Results: The difference in the thermal expansion of alloys fabricated using three techniques was non-significant at almost all the temperatures from 50 ºC to 950 ºC (p>0.05), except 450 ºC and 600 °C. The polarization resistance of specimens manufactured using the conventional method was more compared to DMLS and MIL at pH 5 (Conventional>MIL>DMLS) (p<0.001). Conclusion: The thermal expansion behavior of alloys manufactured using the three selected techniques were similar, whereas, at acidic pH, the corrosion resistance of conventional and MIL were better than the DMLS.

Por lo tanto, el presente estudio tiene como objetivo determinar la resistencia a la corrosión y la expansión térmica de aleaciones fabricadas con tres técnicas contemporáneas. Material y Métodos: Se prepararon un total de nueve probetas de aleación de Co-Cr según ISO 22674 por cada uno de los tres procesos de fabricación (tres en cada proceso); fundición convencional, sinterización directa de metal por láser (DMLS) y fresado (MIL). Todos estos especímenes fueron probados para determinar el coeficiente de expansión térmica y la resistencia a la corrosión. Los datos fueron tabulados y analizados estadísticamente. Resultados: La diferencia en la dilatación térmica de las aleaciones fabricadas con las tres técnicas no fue significativa en casi todas las temperaturas desde 50ºC hasta 950ºC (p>0,05), excepto 450ºC y 600ºC. La resistencia a la polarización de las muestras fabricadas con el método convencional fue mayor en comparación con DMLS y MIL a pH 5 (Convencional>MIL>DMLS) (p<0, 0 01). Conclusión: El comportamiento de expansión térmica de las aleaciones fabricadas con las tres técnicas seleccionadas fue similar, mientras que, a pH ácido, la resistencia a la corrosión de la convencional y la MIL fue mejor que la de la DMLS.

RESUMEN Los mini-implantes son dispositivos metálicos que son temporalmente fijados al hueso y son utilizados para lograr una gran variedad de movimientos ortodónticos. Actualmente, se convirtieron en un importante dispositivo que ayuda al ortodoncista en todas las etapas del tratamiento. Los mini-implantes son hechos con uniones de diferentes metales, por lo que están expuestos al proceso de corrosión en la cavidad bucal. La liberación de iones puede causar efectos fisiológicos adversos, incluyendo citotoxicidad, genotoxicidad, carcinogenicidad y efectos alergénicos. El presente artículo busca hacer una revisión acerca de la corrosión de los mini-implantes de ortodoncia. La literatura reporta que la corrosión de mini-implantes contribuye a la inflamación, que es a su vez un factor que influye en la pérdida de estos dispositivos y la liberación de los iones metálicos es una de sus principales causas. Adicionalmente la corrosión puede producir perforaciones y pérdida de espesor del metal, lo que disminuye la resistencia mecánica y aumenta el riesgo de fractura.
ABSTRACT Mini-implants are metallic devices that are temporarily fixed to the bone and are used to achieve a wide variety of orthodontic movements. Today, they have become an important device that helps the orthodontist in all stages of treatment. The mini-implants are made with joints of different metals, so they are exposed to the corrosion process in the oral cavity. The release of ions can cause adverse physiological effects, including cytotoxicity, genotoxicity, carcinogenicity, and allergenic effects. This article seeks to review the corrosion of orthodontic mini-implants. The literature reports that the corrosion of mini-implants contributes to inflammation, which is a factor that influences the loss of these devices and the release of metal ions is one of its main causes. Additionally, corrosion can produce perforations and loss of thickness of the metal, which reduces the mechanical resistance and increases the risk of fracture.
RESUMO
RESUMO A característica físico-química da água subterrânea resulta das interações com a mineralogia do solo/rocha durante sua infiltração e do seu tempo de permanência nos aquíferos, além das influências antrópicas decorrentes do uso e ocupação do solo. Assim, é comum encontrar águas com elevados índices de agressividade corrosiva ou incrustante. O índice de saturação de Langelier é um dos indicadores para avaliar o grau de agressividade da água. Neste trabalho, foram expostas amostras de tubos de cobre à água bruta e à água potável, em que nesta foi empregado hipoclorito de sódio como desinfetante. As amostras de água foram classificadas como "moderadamente corrosivas" (Índice de Saturação de Langelier = -3,2). Amostras de tubos de cobre ficaram imersas em água durante um mês, uma semana e um dia, mantendo-se a taxa de exposição da tubulação em água em 0,5205 cm3.cm−2. Ao fim do tempo de exposição, foram identificadas concentrações de 1,006 ± 0,025 mgCu.L−1 a 1,614 ± 0,051 mgCu.L−1 nas amostras com água bruta e 1,073 ± 0,034 mgCu.L−1 a 1,979 ± 0,222 mgCu.L−1 nas amostras com água potável. As concentrações de cobre nas amostras de água bruta e potável apresentaram diferenças estatísticas (p > 0,005). A velocidade de corrosão da tubulação de cobre variou de 0,0225 cm.ano−1 a 0,0012 cm.ano−1 em função do tempo de exposição das amostras de água. Não foram identificadas diferenças estatísticas na velocidade de corrosão quando submetidas as amostras à água bruta e à água potável (p < 0,005). Os resultados comprovaram que águas agressivamente corrosivas podem proporcionar a corrosão da tubulação de cobre, alterando sua qualidade.
ABSTRACT The physicochemical characteristic of groundwater is a function of the interactions with the soil/rock mineralogy during its infiltration and its length of permanence in the aquifers, in addition to anthropogenic influences resulting from the use and occupation of the soil. Thus, it is common to find waters with high levels of corrosive or fouling aggressiveness. The Langelier Saturation Index is one of the indicators to assess the degree of water aggressiveness. In this work, samples of copper tubes were exposed to raw and drinking water, in which sodium hypochlorite was used as a disinfectant. The water samples were classified as "moderately corrosive" (Langelier Saturation Index = -3.2). Copper tube samples were immersed in water for 1 month, 1 week and 1 day, keeping the exposure rate of the tube in water at 0.5205 cm3.cm−2. After the exposure time, concentrations of 1.006 ± 0.025 mgCu.L−1 to 1.614 ± 0.051 mgCu.L−1 were identified in the samples with raw water and 1.073 ± 0.034 mgCu.L−1 to 1.979 ± 0.222 mgCu.L−1 in the samples with drinking water. The copper concentrations in the raw and drinking water samples showed statistical differences (p > 0.005). The corrosion rate of copper tubing ranged from 0.0225 cm.year−1 to 0.0012 cm.year−1 depending on the exposure time of the water samples. No statistical differences were identified in the corrosion rate when the samples were subjected to raw water and drinking water (p < 0.005). The results proved that aggressively corrosive waters can cause copper pipe corrosion, changing its quality.
RESUMO
Introdução: É importante saber se o hipoclorito de sódio (NaOCl) influencia a resistência à fadiga cíclica das limas de níquel-titânio (NiTi). Objetivo: Avaliar a influência de NaOCl 2,5% na resistência à fadiga cíclica de dois sistemas de NiTi. Material e método: 40 instrumentos rotatórios - 20 TruNatomy® (TRU, Dentsply Sirona, Maillefer, Ballaigues, Suíça) e 20 Prodesing Logic2® (PDL2, Bassi, Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brasil) - foram aleatoriamente distribuídos em 4 grupos experimentais (n = 10) imersos em água destilada (H2O) e NaOCl 2,5% em temperatura a 37°C. Foram submetidos a testes de fadiga cíclica mensurando o número de ciclos para fratura (NCF) e análise dessas superfícies pós-teste em microscópio eletrônico por varredura. Para a análise estatística entre os grupos, foi aplicada a análise de variância (ANOVA), complementada com o pós-teste de Tukey. Resultado: Houve diferença estatística em todos os grupos (P<0.05). Os instrumentos PDL2 obtiveram maior resistência à fratura nas condições em H2O e em NaOCl 2,5% comparados aos instrumentos TRU. Na análise de grupos de instrumentos nas soluções de NaOCl e H2O, foi observado que o NaOCl 2,5% diminuiu o NCF. Conclusão: A resistência à fadiga cíclica dos instrumentos TRU e PDL2 diminuiu com NaOCl 2,5%. Os instrumentos PDL2 foram mais resistentes à fratura em relação aos instrumentos TRU.
Introduction: It is important to know whether sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) influences the cyclic fatigue resistance of nickel-titanium (NiTi) files. Objective: To evaluate the influence of NaOCl 2.5% on the cyclic fatigue resistance of two NiTi systems. Material and method: Forty rotary instruments - 20 TruNatomy® (TRU, Dentsply Sirona, Maillefer, Ballaigues, Switzerland) and 20 Prodesign Logic2® (PDL2, Bassi, Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil) - were distributed randomly across four experimental groups (n=10) and submerged in distilled water (H2O) or 2.5% NaOCl at 37°C according to allocation. Cyclic fatigue testing was then performed, measuring the number of cycles to fracture (NCF), and post-test surfaces were analysed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Statistical Analysis: Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was applied for between-group analysis, followed by Tukey's post-hoc test. Result: A significant difference was observed in all groups (P<0.05). PDL2 instruments showed higher fracture resistance under H2O and 2.5% NaOCl conditions compared to TRU. Analysis of all instrument groups showed that exposure to 2.5% NaOCl decreased the NCF compared to H2O. Conclusion: Cyclic fatigue resistance of the TRU and PDL2 instruments was decreased by exposure to 2.5% NaOCl. PDL2 instruments were more resistant to fracture than TRU instruments.
