The microstructure, morphology and topography of YWN8 cemented carbides before and after irradiated were given.
Surface modification of this material relates to changes on its chemistry, microstructure, roughness, and topography, all influencing its biological response.
Although assessment of the product of dissolving the 60S bio-glass may bring important information concerning its form of action, the biological response of a biomaterial may also be influenced by the size, form, microstructure, texture and topography of the implant surface.
The resulting data were compiled into the inverse pole figure presentation of indent microstructures and topographies after Zambaldi and Raabe, Acta Mater.
Considering the notion that the surface topography of an implant has a crucial effect on cell attachment, possible correlation between bulk microstructure and surface topography of titanium is of practical interest and thus warrants further investigation.
Melt pool dimensions, microstructure and surface topography of the LSM samples were analysed.
SEM images of the heater surface taken after pool boiling CHF tests revealed that CHF enhancement of nanofluids was closely related to the surface microstructure and enhanced topography resulting from the deposition of nanoparticles [119].
Detailed estimation of the quality of the modified metal surface was performed by additional testing of chemical compositions by EDX and X-ray diffraction, microstructure, surface roughness and topography, and corrosion resistance.
The phase composition, the thickness, the microstructure and the surface topography of the nitrided layer, as well as its properties, depend essentially on the process parameters.
Material characterization was performed before and after each high temperature and bombardment experiment to correlate a possible emissivity evolution to other material properties: mainly the microstructure and the surface topography.
