Abstract

Magnetic particles have been used for hyperthermia by inserting ferromagnetic material into tumor tissue. La(1-x)Sr(x)MnO3 is one of the best candidates for hyperthermia due to higher magnetic at ambient temperature and their Curie temperature easily adjusted. This research synthesized La(1-x)Sr(x)MnO3 using the ball milling technique. Several heat treatments were also conducted after ball milling processing. Various investigations, including SEM-EDS, XRD, DSC, and VSM, were conducted. LaMnO3 has a hexagonal structure, which has the space group R -3 c. From the diffraction pattern seen in LaMnO3 and La0.9Sr0.1MnO3 seen at angles 32.376 and 32.706, it looks separate like the database diffraction pattern. In La0.9Sr0.1MnO3, these two peaks are seen to be increasingly separated. In contrast to the diffraction patterns of La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 and La0.5Sr0.5MnO3 at an angle of 32.376, there is a decrease in intensity. The specific heat capacity of the alloy with Sr substitution of 0.3 has a greater value than that without substitution and the lowest occurs in the alloy with Sr substitution of 0.1. The magnetization value for Sr substitution is 0.3 higher than for other alloys.

Abstract

Brass (CuZn) is widely used today due to better mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties. The present research fabricated CuZn alloy by adding various Zn (6, 9, and 12 wt.%) to the Cu using gravity casting. Casts CuZn alloy by adding various Zn to the Cu to investigate optimum composition were resulting highest inhibited of bacterial activity. In addition, the structure, hardness, and electrochemical behavior of the alloy were also investigated using XRD, Vickers hardness, and potentiostat equipment. XRD confirmed that CuZn alloy has an alpha phase, and a FCC crystal structure. The rise of the Zn content in the alloy led to an increase in crystallite size, a decrease in the hardness and a shift to a more negative OCP potential at 1200 s measurement. Enhancing the Zn content to 9 wt.% in the alloy lead to decrease the corrosion rate. Moreover, 24-hour post-contact observation found that the sample places removed remained clear of bacteria. The Cu6Zn sample successfully inhibited the growth of Escherichia coli in the 3rd hour, while Staphylococcus aureus was 100 % reduced in the 7th hour. The Cu6Zn sample could be used as an alternative material for medical equipment in ambulances.
