Corrosion Study On Low Alloy High Phosphorus Steel, B K. Jena, N Gupta, B Singh, G Sahoo
Journal of Metals, Materials and Minerals
The effect of P on corrosion behaviour of low alloy steels exposed for one month cyclic wet/dry salt spray was investigated and compared with low carbon steel. Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) results revealed that the rust resistance (Rrust) increased with the number of salt spray test cycles. The higher phosphorus content steel (G12) exhibited higher rust resistance (Rrust) than that of low phosphorus content steels (SCR & G11), while similar corrosion rate was noticed from the Tafel extrapolation study in 3.5% NaCl solution for all the test samples. All steels revealed ferrite pearlite microstructure. The larger ferrite grain of G12 …

Agronomic Benefits Of Durian Shell Biochar, N Prakongkep, R J. Gilkes, W Wiriyakitnateekul
Journal of Metals, Materials and Minerals
This study investigated the chemical properties of durian shell biochar which is used as a soil amendment. It can act as a carbon sink and as a means to improve crop yield. Plant nutrient elements in this biochar are in crystalline minerals located within the complex pore structure therefore biochar production from wastes could be a very good way to reduce demand for fertilizers. XRD and SEM-EDS results demonstrate that the numerous minerals in biochar are highly soluble, such as archerite (KH2PO4), chlorocalcite (KCaCl3), kalicinite (KHCO3), and sylvite (KCl) with small amounts …

Shape Fixity And Shape Recovery Characteristics Of Aliphatic Epoxy-Benzoxazine Shape Memory Polymer, T Tanpitaksit, M Okhawilai, S Rimdusit
Journal of Metals, Materials and Minerals
Shape memory polymers (SMPs) are polymers that can fix the temporary shape and recover to the permanent shape by external stimuli. Epoxy resins are an important family of SMPs due to their excellent stability, thermomechanical endurance and the high values of shape fixity. However, epoxide ring opening polymerization required a curing agent which possesses some disadvantages such as high cost, toxic problem to the user and corrosion to the processing apparatus. In this research, novel series of SMPs were prepared from aliphatic epoxy as soft segment and benzoxazine resin (BA-a) as hard segment. Additionally, benzoxazine resin can also function as …

Journal of Metals, Materials and Minerals
Volume resistivity of less than 104 W.cm is required for typical electrically conductive packages. Conductive polypropylene (PP) packages with the above level of conductivity value can be achieved by a use of carbon black (CB) as conductive filler. To maintain processability of PP with low cost, minimal amount of carbon black is preferable in the conductive composites. By introducing a second polymer with immiscible or partially miscible nature to the first polymer, and if the conductive filler is localized in one polymer phase, a system of double percolation with minimal filler content can be achieved. In this work, electrically conductive …

Property Enhancement Of Polybenzoxazine Modified With Maleic Anhydride, W Punuch, M Okhawilai, S Rimdusit
Journal of Metals, Materials and Minerals
One seemingly shortcoming of polybenzoxazine is its relatively high rigidity. Therefore, various efforts have been attempted to toughen polybenzoxazine such as by alloying with more flexible monomers or polymers e.g. urethane elastomers or flexible epoxy. The alloying of polybenzoxazine with those resins or polymers has been reported to show synergy in some properties thus economically provide a novel class of resin systems with superior performance. In this work, polybenzoxazine alloys were prepared from bisphenol-A-aniline based benzoxazine resin (BA-a) and maleic anhydride (MA) in N, N-Dimethyformamide (DMF) solvent. The miscible monomer mixture was easily transformed into transparent polymer alloys by thermal …

Journal of Metals, Materials and Minerals
SiO2-included cesium polyoxotungstate catalysts were synthesized by a sol-gel method and characterizied by FTIR, XRD and N2 adsorption isotherms. XRD patterns prove that the cesium polyoxotungstate is uniformly dispersed in the silica network. The catalysts were used in oxidation of cyclohexane with H2O2. The products are cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone. The catalysts prepared by using a copolymer surfactant show higher surface area and exhibit higher activity. These catalysts are truly heterogeneous and can be reused at least 3 times.

Comparison Of Ball-On-Disc And Taber Wear Tests In Assessing Wear Performance Of Electrolessly-Deposited Alloys, K Theeratatpong, S Danchaivijit, Y Boonyongmaneerat
Journal of Metals, Materials and Minerals
In the industry, a Taber wear test is commonly employed to assess the wear resistance of coatings, which are applied on a panel of relatively large scales. On the other hand, other wear testing methods, such as ball-on-disc, is preferred in laboratory settings, as they require smaller test specimens and can determine coefficient of friction. In this study, we systematically compare the differences of Taber wear and ball-on disc by evaluating with an electrolessly-deposited Ni-P alloy systems. The Taber wear shows purely abrasive wear, whereas the ball-on-disc test offers a complex blend of wear mechanisms, and provides the coefficient of …

Sterling silver is one of the most widely used precious metal alloys in jewelry industry. 92.5 wt% silver content is the standard for sterling products, while 7.5 wt% is reserved for other alloying elements. Because the mechanical properties of pure silver such as yield strength and hardness are extremely low. In the bounds of 7.5 wt% solute addition, different approaches have been introduced in order to improve the properties of sterling silver. For example, to increase the hardness of the jewelry pieces, metallurgists introduced age hardening, cold working, and surface treatments. We reported on the trend of intrinsic hardness increase …

Journal of Metals, Materials and Minerals
With significant rising of Au price, there is growing demand to implement Cu wire bonding as an alternative method for Au wire bonding. However, there are several challenges to overcome because Cu is easily oxidized and its property is harder than Au. The oxidation deteriorates bondability and bond reliability, while the greater wire hardness leads to the more severe wire bonding parameters (higher force, higher power, higher temperature), which results in physical damage of the bond pad and underlying layers. This paper reveals wire bonding parameters optimization in order to implement Cu wire bonding in high volume production environment with …

Macrostructure Modeling Of Al-20 % Sn Alloy, P Padhi, Ak Sahoo, S Kar
Journal of Metals, Materials and Minerals
In metallic alloys, the formation of macrostructure involves different length and time scales. The macrostructure strongly influences the mechanical properties of the materials. Modeling of macrostructure provides valuable insights for tailoring of the structure. In the present study simulation of macrostructure in Al-20Sn has been carried out. Expression for nucleation rate and growth rate were tuned to get a match with the experimentally observed macrostructure. The study incorporates the motion of grains due to Brownian motion. Incorporation of Brownian motion resulted in more uniform distribution locally, which has been experimentally observed. Both simulation and macrograph showed few columnar grains and …
