Description

In this work, TiSiN coatings were selected to improve the adhesion between dental ceramic and CoCr substrate. The coatings were prepared by the cathodic arc technique in N-2 reactive atmosphere, at different bias voltages, and analyzed for elemental composition, surface roughness, wettability and corrosion resistance in Fusayama Meyer artificial saliva. After the coating deposition, low-fusing dental ceramic film was fired on coated alloy, using a dental furnace. The bond strength of these specimens was tested using a 3-point bending test.
