The goal of this study was to investigate the chemical alteration of a dental alloy surface by alumina air-abrasion and its effect on bonding to resin cement. Alumina air-abrasion was carried out on an Ag-Pd-Cu-Au alloy. The surface morphology and chemical state of the abraded alloy were characterized. The effect of the air-abrasion on the shear bond strength between the alloy and a methyl methacrylate/tri-n-butyl borane (MMA/TBB) resin cement with some primers was evaluated. The surface characterization revealed that the alumina air-abrasion mechanically roughened and chemically altered the surface. The chemical alterations had two effects: (1) abraded alumina particles remained on the alloy surface and (2) copper ions were oxidized in the alloy surface. As the result, the shear bond strength test indicated that 10-methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (MDP) contained primer worked with the abraded alloy surface, whereas it did not work with the non-abraded alloy surface.

With the growing demand for nickel in the stainless steel and battery industries, conventional methods of extracting nickel from ores face challenges such as high production costs and environmental concerns. This study proposes a new process for the recovery of nickel metal and the production of nickel-iron alloys from nickel-bearing scrap. The reduction rates of nickel and iron oxides were investigated by optimizing the roasting temperature, time, and C/O ratio, and the process was optimized using response surface methodology (RSM).

Unlike homogeneous metal complexes, achieving absolute control over reaction selectivity in heterogeneous catalysts remains a formidable challenge due to the unguided molecular adsorption/desorption on metal-surface sites. Conventional organic surface modifiers or ligands and rigid inorganic and metal-organic porous shells are not fully effective. Here, we introduce the concept of "ligand-porous shell cooperativity" to desirably reaction selectivity in heterogeneous catalysis.

Zinc (Zn) and its alloys have been the focus of recent materials and manufacturing research for orthopaedic implants due to their favorable characteristics including desirable mechanical strength, biodegradability, and biocompatibility. In this research, a novel process involving additive manufacturing (AM) augmented casting was employed to fabricate zinc-magnesium (Zn-0.8 Mg) artifacts with surface lattices composed of triply periodic minimal surfaces (TPMS), specifically gyroid.
