Ni-Cr-Mo Alloy for Dental Prostheses with Low Melting Temperature

A Review on Small Organic Colorimetric and Fluorescent Hosts for the Detection of Cobalt and Nickel Ion

In recent years, there has been a notable increase in efforts to advance efficient hosts for detecting cobalt and nickel ions, driven by their extensive industrial applications and environmental significance. This review meticulously examines the progress made in small organic colorimetric and fluorescent hosts tailored specifically for the sensitive and selective detection of cobalt and nickel ions. It delves into a diverse range of molecular architectures, including organic ligands, elucidating their unique attributes such as sensitivity, selectivity, and response time. Moreover, the review precisely explores the underlying principles governing the colorimetric and fluorescent mechanisms employed by these hosts, shedding light on the intricate interactions between the sensing moieties and the target metal ions. Furthermore, it critically evaluates the practical applicability of these hosts, considering crucial factors such as detection limits, recyclability, and compatibility with complex sample matrices. Additionally, exploration extends to potential challenges and prospects in the field, emphasizing the imperative for ongoing innovation to address emerging environmental and analytical demands. Eventually, through this comprehensive examination, the review seeks to contribute to the ongoing endeavor to develop robust and efficient tools for monitoring and detecting cobalt and nickel metal ions in diverse analytical scenarios.

Characterization of NiCrMo Dental Restoration Alloy

Restorative material is a class of dental materials used for direct filling and fabrication of indirect restoration. NiCr alloy is a restorative material frequently used for dental prostheses due to its properties and economic reasons. In present work beryllium free NiCrMo alloy was developed and studied for dental restoration application. The alloy have unique characteristics of resistance to oxidation and biocompatibility; the requisites for dental prostheses. NiCrMo alloy is found to possess mechanical strength and fabrication properties suitable for dental repairs. In this study the developed alloy was tested for its mechanical properties, biocompatibility and corrosion resistance. An in-vitro biocompatibility study was carried out. No signs of toxicity and no signs of cell growth inhibition, in presence of NiCrMo alloy specimen, were observed. Mechanical properties and corrosion resistance are found in the range that is suitable for dental prostheses and easy fabrication.
