Abstract

To estimate the possibility of the application of TiN ion-plating to the orthodontic appliance, colorimetric properties, and characteristics of ion-plated film as well as adhesive strength of TiN film to the substrate and mechanical properties of ion-plated orthodontic appliance were investigated. The obtained results were as follows: 1) TiN ion-plated film had the colorimetric properties which were the hue of about 2.5 Y, the brightness of about 6, and the chroma of about 4 by the standard color chip of JIS. 2) TiN ion-plated film was 2micrometer in thickness and its deposition pattern was rather irregular. 3) TiN phase was confirmed on the X-ray diffraction pattern. 4) Critical load for delamination of ion-plated film from stainless steel band was 10N. 5) Tensile and yield strength of ion-plated specimen was increased about 10Kg,f/mm2 , while elongation was decreased 1% com pairing to the values of the non ion-plated specimen.
