ORTHODONTIC TREATMENT WITH Nd-Fe-B MAGNETS
Valerii Kutsevlyak, Vladyslav Starikov, Volodymyr Samofalov, Vadym Starikov The aim. The development of methodology for experimental and theoretical assessment of interaction forces between magnets in an orthodontic apparatus, the test of corrosion resistance of protective oxide and nitride coatings deposited on Nd-Fe-B magnets surface. Materials and methods. The Nd-Fe-B permanent magnets with saturation magnetization Ms≈1100 G and bilayer ZrN / ZrO2 coatings were used. […]
