Chosun University Graduate Student Wins Excellent Poster Paper Award at Korean Corrosion Engineering Society Conference

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Gwan-woo] Graduate student Kim Hyun-jun of Chosun University Graduate School won the Poster Excellence Award at the ‘2020 Korean Corrosion Engineering Society Fall Conference’.

According to Chosun University on the 26th, student Kim Hyun-jun presented “The Effect of Coating Treatment on the Corrosion Resistance of Dental Ni-Ti Files,” conducted under the Ministry of SMEs and Startups’ Industry-Academia-Research Collabo R&D Project (2020collabo), at the Korean Corrosion Engineering Society Fall Conference held online from the 12th to 13th, and received the Poster Excellence Award.

This paper is a study that improves the fatigue fracture resistance of electric dental Ni-Ti files used in dental root canal treatment by surface treatment, and predicts fatigue fracture life by investigating the effect of the irrigants used during root canal treatment on fatigue fracture through electrochemical evaluation.

This research is a project carried out in two phases in collaboration with BPC Co., Ltd., and the Department of Dental Materials at Chosun University plans to develop Ni-Ti files with diamond-structured coatings on the existing Ni-Ti file alloy surface, which will have excellent flexibility, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance.
