Ítem Comparison of TiO2 targets manufactured by APS and sintering processes for PAPVD coatings suitable in technological and medical applications(ASM International, 2018-01-01) Jaramillo Raquejo D.; Palacio C.C.; Ageorges H.; Jaramillo Raquejo D.; Palacio C.C.; Ageorges H.; Universidad EAFIT. Departamento de Ciencias; Electromagnetismo Aplicado (Gema)In surface science of functional oxides, Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is one of the most investigated crystalline systems either in rutile or anatase phases. Rutile phase is widely used in microelectronic, tribological applications and in the conversion of solar energy. Anatase phase is used in self-cleaning, antifogging, photo-catalytic and biomedical technologies. This work focuses on studying the required process conditions to obtain TiO2 targets by APS onto metallic substrates using commercial TiO2 powders (Oerlikon Metco in Switzerland) with suitable physical and chemical properties for technological and medical applications as PAPVD coatings. APS targets were compared to sintered ones. The raw powders were characterized by laser diffraction, SEM, XRF and XRD while the characteristics of the APS-deposited targets as well as the sintered ones were determined by SEM and XRD to identify the constituent phases. This work allowed confirming the advantages and limitations of both processes in terms of grain size, chemical composition, microstructural homogeneity and density in order to choose the best option to manufacture targets for PAPVD coatings for technological and medical applications. © 2018 ASM International® All rights reserved.Ítem Dynamic analysis of a recirculation system of micro functional fluids for ink-jet applications(Springer Verlag, 2017-05-01) Arango, I.; Cañas, M.; Arango, I.; Cañas, M.; Universidad EAFIT. Departamento de Ingeniería Mecánica; Mecatrónica y Diseño de MáquinasThe rise of ink-jet printing technology has led to numerous studies about functional fluids, which, in most cases, are made to change and improve the chemical and rheological properties. Besides this, there are several patents about the recirculation fluid system that help to prevent settling particles, and thus improving print quality without consequences in the chemical composition of the fluid. This paper presents a dynamic analysis of a recirculation circuit for ink-jet microsystems applications with fluids that contain a particle size of 40 nm to 10 µ m. This analysis integrates multiple mathematical and experimental models, in regard to variables such as: viscosity change with temperature and solid volume fraction, sedimentation, surface tension and flow behavior. As a result, specific values of vacuum pressure for different drop-on-demand print heads with different ink-jet functional fluids, places of probable sedimentation and minimum pickup velocities to remove settled particles are given. © 2017, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.Ítem Effect of chemical composition and microstructure on the mechanical behavior of fish scales from Megalops Atlanticus(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2016-03-01) Gil-Duran, S.; Arola, D.; Ossa, E.A.; Gil-Duran, S.; Arola, D.; Ossa, E.A.; Universidad EAFIT. Departamento de Ingeniería de Producción; Materiales de IngenieríaThis paper presents an experimental study of the composition, microstructure and mechanical behavior of scales from the Megalops Atlanticus (Atlantic tarpon). The microstructure and composition were evaluated by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and RAMAN spectroscopy, respectively. The mechanical properties were evaluated in uniaxial tension as a function of position along the length of the fish (head, mid-length and tail). Results showed that the scales are composed of collagen and hydroxyapatite, and these constituents are distributed within three well-defined layers from the bottom to the top of the scale. The proportion of these layers with respect to the total scale thickness varies radially. The collagen fibers are arranged in plies with different orientations and with preferred orientation in the longitudinal direction of the fish. Results from the tensile tests showed that scales from Megalops Atlanticus exhibit variations in the elastic modulus as a function of body position. Additional testing performed with and without the highly mineralized top layers of the scale revealed that the mechanical behavior is anisotropic and that the highest strength was exhibited along the fish length. Furthermore, removing the top mineralized layers resulted in an increase in the tensile strength of the scale. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.Ítem Effect of the mechanical properties on drilling resistance of Al2O3-TiO2 coatings manufactured by atmospheric plasma spraying(ELSEVIER SCIENCE SA, 2013-04-15) Palacio, C. C.; Ageorges, H.; Vargas, F.; Diaz, A. F.; Universidad EAFIT. Departamento de Ciencias Básicas; Electromagnetismo Aplicado (Gema)Al2O3 with 13 and 45wt.% TiO2 microsized powders (6-22 and 13-41µm for each chemical composition) were used as raw materials to coat AISI 1040 steel by atmospheric plasma spraying. The mechanical properties of the coatings were measured by micro-indentation tests, and drilling experiments were carried out using high speed steel (HSS) rotary drill bits of various diameters and varying the load on the drill bits. In order to reduce the effect of the wear on the bit, a new bit was used for each test. According to the results, the drilling test is proposed as a method of determining the mechanical properties of these coatings from the correlation found between coating hardness and drilling resistance. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.Ítem Pelletisation by tumbling as an alternative method of agglomerating nanometric particles for use as feedstock in bi-modal structured flame-sprayed ceramic coatings(Elsevier Ltd., 2019-01-01) Árias J.A.; Hurtado F.M.; Estrada G.; Cadavid E.; Rincón Ortiz M.; Palacio C.C.; Vargas F.; Universidad EAFIT. Departamento de Ciencias Básicas; Electromagnetismo Aplicado (Gema)This paper is focused on the physical evaluation of ceramic granules of Al2O3, Al2O3-13 wt% TiO2 (AT-13) and TiO2 obtained from alumina and titania nanoparticles by pelletisation in a rotating drum. The results were compared with those of both sintered and non-sintered granules of similar chemical compositions and particle size distributions which were spray dried, as well as with those of TiO2 pelletised granules blended with atomised alumina particles. The results obtained indicated that the physical characteristics of the pelletised granules conferred them a free-flowing behavior which was similar to that of the spray-dried granules. However, the TiO2 pelletised granules blended with harder atomised alumina particles disintegrated and, therefore, exhibited a poor flowability. Additionally, it was evident that the ceramic coatings fabricated from pelletised granules displayed a structure which was as or more compact than those of the granules obtained from agglomerated powders by spray drying with or without sintering, apart from being more compact than that of the coatings deposited from TiO2 pelletised granules blended with atomised alumina particles. The above findings indicate that the alternative pelletising method is potentially useful for the use of agglomerated nanoparticles as feedstock in the fabrication of bi-modal structured flame-sprayed ceramic coatings. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd and Techna Group S.r.l.Ítem Study of the suitability of a commercial hydroxyapatite powder to obtain sintered compacts for medical applications(IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2017-06-13) Palacio C.; Jaramillo D.; Correa S.; Arroyave M.; Palacio C.; Jaramillo D.; Correa S.; Arroyave M.; Universidad EAFIT. Departamento de Ciencias; Electromagnetismo Aplicado (Gema)Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a material widely used by the medical community due to its Ca/P ratio is comparable to the Ca/P ratio of bones and teeth, which promotes osteoinduction and osteoconduction processes when in contact with bone tissue, either as volume piece or coating. This work focuses on studying the quality of the commercial HA powder MKnano-#MKN-HXAP-S12 µm, after processing, to obtain sintered compact discs with suitable physical and chemical characteristics for implants applications. The HA powder was processed through calcination, grinding, pressing and sintering to evaluate the effect of such as procedures in the compacts dics quality. The raw powder was characterized by laser diffraction, SEM, XRF, XRD, TGA and DSC while the characteristics of the obtained compact discs were determined by dilatometry and XRD to identify the sintering temperature range, constituent phases, the amorphous content and the crystallinity degree, parameters that allow determining their suitability for implants applications. Although, it was not possible to obtain sintered compacts with the suitable chemical composition and without fractures, this work allowed to identify the parameters that determine the suitability of a HA powder to obtain sintered compacts for medical applications, as well as the characterization protocol that allows the evaluation of such parameters. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.Ítem Study of the suitability of a commercial hydroxyapatite powder to obtain sintered compacts for medical applications(IOP PUBLISHING LTD, 2017-06-13) Palacio C.; Jaramillo D.; Correa S.; Arroyave M.Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a material widely used by the medical community due to its Ca/P ratio is comparable to the Ca/P ratio of bones and teeth, which promotes osteoinduction and osteoconduction processes when in contact with bone tissue, either as volume piece or coating.
