Structural Characteristics Of Some Ternary Ag-In-Sn Alloys, Zeljko J. Kamberovic Jan 2008

Structural Characteristics Of Some Ternary Ag-In-Sn Alloys, Zeljko J. Kamberovic

Zeljko J Kamberovic

The Ag-In-Sn system, as one of potential lead-free solder materials, was studied in this paper. The investigated alloys were chosen from two sections, with molar ratio of In:Sn equal to 1:4; 1:2. DTA, XRD, SEM and microhardness investigations were used in order to determine structural characteristics of chosen Ag-In-Sn ternary alloys.


Structure And Kinetics Of Internal Oxidation In Ag-Sn Alloys, Zeljko J. Kamberovic Dec 2007

Structure And Kinetics Of Internal Oxidation In Ag-Sn Alloys, Zeljko J. Kamberovic

Zeljko J Kamberovic

Internal oxidation in Ag-Sn-In-Te and Ag-Sn-Cu-Bi alloys was tested. Microstructures of casted and homogenized samples, as well as after internal oxidation were followed by optical microscopy. The structure of Ag-Sn-Cu-Bi alloy was found finer, and the oxidation rate is considerably higher compared to the Ag-Sn-In-Te type alloy sheets. It seems that the size and volume fraction of secondary phase particles (probably ζ type) can influence the process of internal oxidation. In the Ag-Sn-In-Te alloy type “wavy oxidation” was noticed with oxide free regions.


The Influence Of Titanium And Cerium On Microstructure And Properties Of Fe-C-Cr-Nb Alloys, Zeljko J. Kamberovic Jan 2005

The Influence Of Titanium And Cerium On Microstructure And Properties Of Fe-C-Cr-Nb Alloys, Zeljko J. Kamberovic

Zeljko J Kamberovic

In this paper, the influence of titanium and cerium on the microstructure and properties of Fe- C-Cr-Nb alloys are examined, in both as-cast and heat treated state. These elements affect the crystallisation process of Fe-C-Cr-Nb alloys and the transformation of austenite during the cooling process after solidification. Titanium changed the morphology of NbC carbides. Further, in the austenite of the examined Fe-C-Cr-Nb-Ti alloys, very fine particles of precipitated secondary carbide can be seen. The alloy containing 0,28%Ti and 0,19%Ce has martensite-perlite-austenitic matrix microstructure in as-cast condition. Adding titanium and cerium to Fe-C-Cr-Nb alloys will also changed its properties, since the …


Possibilities Of Recycling Of Magnesium And Magnesium Alloys, Zeljko J. Kamberovic Jan 2004

Possibilities Of Recycling Of Magnesium And Magnesium Alloys, Zeljko J. Kamberovic

Zeljko J Kamberovic

In this paper are presented results of experimental investigation of processing of non oil-contaminated metal scrap based on magnesium and its alloys. These are the firs investigations of magnesium scrap recycling in Serbia and Montenegro. Experimental investigations were conducted in laboratory scale and achieved results were verified in industrial scale (Magnesium factory ″Bela Stena″ in Baljevac on Ibar). Experiments included following the influence of preparation of metal scrap on metal extraction efficiency rate.


Development Of Contemporary Procedures For Lead Obtaining, Zeljko J. Kamberovic Jan 2004

Development Of Contemporary Procedures For Lead Obtaining, Zeljko J. Kamberovic

Zeljko J Kamberovic

Contemporary procedures of lead concentrates treatment were in different expansion during last thirty years. All procedures have in common the following: smelting reaction proceeds in solid-gas suspension, melting products are metallic lead and slag, which are leaving electric furnace together. The conditions for production metallic lead and slag in one furnace are determined using thermodynamic analysis of contemporary direct smelting procedures. The characteristics and progress of direct smelting process are determined using oxygen/concentrate ratio, which influences the lead content in slag, sulphur content in bullion and the following metals distribution. The KIVCET and Boliden TBRC are contemporary procedures that found …


Optimisation Of Ferriferous Dust And Mud Preparation Acts From Iron And Steel Production On Purpose Of Returning To Primary Processes, Zeljko J. Kamberovic Jan 2004

Optimisation Of Ferriferous Dust And Mud Preparation Acts From Iron And Steel Production On Purpose Of Returning To Primary Processes, Zeljko J. Kamberovic

Zeljko J Kamberovic

In this paper detailed characterization of ferriferous dust and mud which originated from aglomerization, blast- furnace and converter process in Iron-works Smederevo were shown. Optimization of method peletization was conducted in variably conditions (different moinsture content, changing of time of peletization and type of binder). These palets were submitted to examination of resistance on impact and pressure, and their behavior was confirmed returning in sintering process in semiindustrial conditions. Ideally-technological solution for plant preparation of dust and mud in Iron-works Smederevo was recommanded. That solution should contribute to improvement of techno-economic parametars of aglomeration and blast- furnace process, as well …
