As food and beverages require more and more green and safe packaging products, the emergence of polymer coated steel (PCS) has been promoted. PCS is a layered composite strip made of metal and polymer. To probe the bonding mechanism of PCS micro-interface, the substrate tin-free steel (TFS) was physically characterized by SEM and XPS, and cladding polyethylene terephthalate (PET) was simulated by first-principles methods of quantum mechanics (QM). We used COMPASS force field for molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. XPS pointed out that the element composition of TFS surface coating is Cr(OH)3, Cr2O3 and CrO3. The calculation results of MD and QM indicate that the chromium oxide and PET molecules compound in the form of acid-base interaction. The binding energies of Cr2O3 (110), (200), and (211) with PET molecules are −13.07 eV, −2.74 eV, and −2.37 eV, respectively. We established a Cr2O3 (200) model with different hydroxyl concentrations. It is proposed that the oxygen atom in C=O in the PET molecule combines with –OH on the surface of TFS to form a hydrogen bond. The binding energy of the PCS interface increases with the increase of the surface hydroxyl concentration of the TFS. It provides theoretical guidance and reference significance for the research on the bonding mechanism of PCS.

The automotive component industry has been constantly being studying to improve its performance. Bowden cables are present in opening doors, moving windows and others. In braided cables formed by galvanized wires with Zn steel exposed to the usual environmental conditions, the generation of ZnO appears, a phenomenon known as "white corrosion". The investigation consisted of mitigating the causes of the ZnO formation. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Electron Probe Micro-Analyzer (EPMA) technology, allowed to detect that the generation of ZnO was induced by the presence of nucleating elements of ZnO on the surface of the steel cable before galvanizing with Zn. The S, Cl and O became visible in the interface between coating and substrate. This allowed concluding, under the coating, there were harmful products capable of triggering the ZnO nucleation reaction. So, the storage and cleaning of the steel wire before galvanizing is essential to prevent the ZnO formation.

Restoration of decayed teeth with tooth-colored materials that can be bonded to tooth tissue has been a highly desirable property in restorative dentistry for many years. Advantages of such an adhesive restorative technique over conventional techniques using non-adhesive metal-based restoratives include improved restoration retention with minimal sacrifice of sound tooth tissue for retention purposes, superior adaptation and sealing of the restoration margins in prevention of caries recurrence, improved stress distribution across the tooth-restoration interface throughout the whole tooth, and even reinforcement of weakened tooth structures. The dental adhesive technology is rapidly changing. An efficient resin bond to enamel has already long been achieved. Its bonding mechanism has been fully elucidated and has proven to be a durable and reliable clinical treatment. However, bonding to dentin represents a greater challenge. After the failures of a dentin acid-etch technique in imitation of the enamel phosphoric-acid-etch technique and a bonding procedure based on chemical adhesion, modern dentin adhesives are currently believed to bond to dentin by a micromechanical hybridization process. This process is developed by an initial demineralization of the dentin surface layer with acid etchants exposing a collagen fibril arrangement with interfibrillar microporosities that subsequently become impregnated by low-viscosity monomers. Although the development of such a hybridization process has well been documented in the literature, questions remain with respect to parameters of-primary importance to adhesive efficacy.

Operation of inhaul rubber steel cables in vertical mine hoisting is discussed. The research in the field of mine hoisting is reviewed, and the further R&D directions are identified. Some studies concern life extension of hoisting ropes. One of the promising trends seems to be application of belt pullers as inhaul cables, which can essentially enhance mine hoist efficiency. In the meanwhile, capabilities of rubber steel cables suffer from deficient attention. The performance capabilities of rubber steel cables of top manufacturers (Promkanat and SAG) are compared, and application ranges in vertical mine hoisting are determined for such cables. It is found that the Polish manufacturer’s rubber steel cables offer a wider range of application. The analysis shows that rubber steel cables can be used as inhaul cables of vertical mine hoisters. Rubber steel cables possess suitable characteristics and are capable to elevate considerable loads to various hoisting heights. In particular, the existing rubber steel cables ensure carrying capacity of hoists up to 20-25 t at the hoisting heights to 400-500 m and sometimes can elevate skips with tonnage of 10 t to a height up to 1000 m and more. The further feasibility study of operation of inhaul steel rubber cables in hoisting units should address motion stability of a puller on a driving drum, load distribution in ropes of base of rubber steel cables, validation of hoister design, adjustability of rubber steel cable length during its operation, etc.

Upgrading of hoisting machines aims to improve their performance, to reduce risk of accidents, and to cut down operational and capital costs. One of the redesign solutions is replacement of steel cables by rubber cables. This novation can extend life of pulling members, decrease diameters of drive and guide wheels and, consequently, elements of the whole hoisting machines: rotor, reducing gear, motor. This engineering novation needs re-designing of hoisting machines; thus, the new design should be validated, in particular, strength characteristics of the machine members. This article considers a drive wheel of a hoisting machine with a pulling belt. In order to justify the potential range of design parameters with regard to safety factor, the numerical models of different-design drive wheels are developed and their operation with pulling belt (rubber cable) is simulated in the SolidWorks environment. The data on the stress state of the wheel elements are analyzed, the most loaded points are identified, and the maximal stresses on the sidewall surface and in the spokes of wheels of different designs are plotted.
