Abstract
In the article we were studing the impact of the remelting on
transformations in Co-Cr-Mo prosthetics alloy. The TDA curves were
analyzed,
the microstructure was examined, the analysis of the chemical composition and
hardness using the Brinell method was made. It was
found that the obtained microstructure of the alloys that we studied do not
differ significantly. In all four samples, microscopic images
were similar to each other. The volume, size and distribution of the phases
remain similar. Analysis of the chemical composition showed
that all the samples fall within the compositions provided for the test alloy.
Further to this the hardness of the samples, regardless of the
number of remeltings did not show any significant fluctuations and remained
within the error limit.After analyzing all the results, it can be
concluded that the remeltings of the alloys should not have a significant
impact on their properties.
Secondarily melted alloys can be used for prosthetics works.
