Abstract:
The poly methyl methacrylate (PMMA) powder was used to prepare bio-composite coating layers by dry electrostatic spray method on stainless steel (SS) 316L as a substrate. Different weight percentages (wt%) of dry powders were mixed to form a composite mixture consisted of (5, 10, 15, and 20) wt% Al2O3 and TiO2 with (95, 90, 85, and 80) wt% of PMMA as matrix material. The ceramic powder additives were studied in Four Groups: (A, B, C, and D). The morphology, particle size, chemical compositions, micro-hardness, adhesion strength, ion release behavior, FTIR, and DSC tests of the polymer composite coating layers were characterized.
An academic promotion was provided to Dr. Fatima Jaafer Muhammad to assistant professor and another academic promotion was provided to assistant lecturer Shatha Reyahd Ahmed to lecturer in February 3rd 2021.

Congratulations to the student on her graduation.
Abstract:.
The study aimed to alter the implant surface and make it more effective, vital for medical uses. In the present work, Modifications achieved by deposition Nano zirconia and yttria powders on different titanium-base alloys produced using powder technology technique ; Chemical etching pretreatments is done for implant samples (Ti-pure, Ti-45%Ni, Ti-10%Co and Ti-30%Ta) and the deposition process carried out by pack cementation to produced Nano ceramic materials at implant surface. Where the best results of the four alloys were shown in medical tests and their effect in cell viability and adhesion, adding that the deposition process in this way is useful for medical applications, not just industrial.
