The developed composites were immersed in simulated body fluid (SBF) at 37oC to determine their bioactivity. Microstructure evaluation using scanning electron microscopy was also used to assess the morphology of the developed composites before and after in vitro test, respectively.The microstructure evaluation in vitro showed good deposition of white-like layers on the surface indicating good bioactivity reaction with the SBF and affirm that the developed biopolymers will react well with living tissue when used in vivo.

Conventional cast alloys are subjected to T6 heat treatment for age hardening. Hardness values, thermal conductivity along with microstructural observation under different heat-treated conditions are well thought-out to comprehend the ageing performance and the precipitation behaviour of the alloys. From these investigational results it is indicated that two successive hardening peaks take place in the agedalloys. Ageing sequence consists of different phases like a supersaturated solid solution, GP zones, intermediate βʹʹ, intermetallic βʹ, equilibrium β and the Q phase but GP zones and the metastable phases are most likely responsible for these ageing peaks. Thermal conductivity decreases for these precipitates formation during ageing and increases for relieving the internal stress, dissolution of metastable phase and coarsening the precipitation of the alloys. Addingup of Si to the alloy showed earlier ageing peaks with higher intensities intended for its increasing properties of heterogeneous nucleation and diffusion kinetics. After ageing around at 200°C for four hours the alloys offer the height hardness. Microstructural study reveals that eutectic silicon makes the grain boundary coarsen and beyond the eutectic composition the star-shaped blocky primary Si is formed. Subsequent to ageing at 350oC for one hour the alloys reach completely recrystallized state.","PeriodicalId":38363,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Chemical Technology and Metallurgy","volume":"70 s288","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141002291","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), Ultraviolet-Visible (UV) Spectroscopy, and Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) techniques are used to physically characterize the samples.
