RAPID SOLIDIFICATION PROCESSING: NEW TRENDS IN METALLIC IMPLANT TECHNOLOGY.

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Rapid solidification processing (RSP) is a means of obtaining such homogeneity in cast materials. This paper shows that compositional variables can produce vastly different microstructures in RSP surgical implant alloys. Using a simple quantitative model, the authors show how the refinement of segregation aids in developing heat treatments for such alloys. The refinement of the microstructure would provide for chemical homogeneity and hence improved biocompatibility.
