In this study, additive manufacturing technique was preferred to produce Wolfram (W), Silicon (Si), and Molybdenum (Mo) doped Co-Cr biomedical alloy. In biomedical applications, the alloy consisting of Wolfram (W), Silicon (Si), Molybdenum (Mo), Chromium (Cr), and Cobalt (Co) elements as known for its high wear and good corrosion resistance. Two group of Co-Cr-Mo alloys were produced using the Selective Laser Melting (SLM) method, one of the additive manufacturing manufacturing techniques. One of the produced samples was then subjected to a secondary heat treatment process. The microstructures of the produced alloys were investigated using X-Ray diffractometry (XRD), Energy dispersive X-Ray analysis (EDX) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Then, the mechanical properties of the alloys were analyzed by electrochemical corrosion test, microhardness test and Archimedes principle density measurement were the final tests. The data obtained as a result of the analyzes showed that a homogeneous microstructured Co-Cr-Mo alloy was produced by the additive manufacturing production technique. In addition, heat treatment caused serious changes on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the material. The most important of these changes was the reduction of the grains forming the alloy, resulting in an increase in the microhardness value of the alloy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The influence of volume fraction of martensite and new ferrite on the tensile behaviour of dual-phase steel containing 0,0981% C, 1,653% Mn, 0,54% Si and 0,69% Ni has been studied. After intercritical annealing at 715, 725 and 752°C, the specimens were cooled in water, oil and furnace. The formation of carbide was not observed in the optical microscope investigation even at furnace cooling rate. The results showed that after annealing at the same intercritical temperature, the highest volume fraction of martensite was obtained by water cooling among all cooling conditions. By increasing the martensite content, both yield and tensile strengths increased while uniform elongation was decreasing. It was observed that at constant volume fraction of martensite, new ferrite content was varied by using controlled cooling from intercritical annealing temperatures. The presence of new ferrite caused a decrease in strength and increase in ductility. Scanning electron microscope investigations of fracture surface showed that the specimens with new ferrite had higher densities of microvoids in the necked region and exhibited completely ductile type of fracture. In contary, it was also observed that the specimens with no new ferrite had lower densities of microvoids and exhibited mixed type of fracture which comprises both cleavage and ductile fracture together.

In this research, Nitzschia palea from Bacillariophyta division (in samples which received from surroundings Tokat-Turkey) have been cultured in culture medium and investigated in scanning electron microscope (SEM). In analysis of micrograph have been observed that polar nodule has different morphological structure. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
