Oil&gas producing industry today is increased production volumes from old deposits on land, offshore and deep-water. The materials used to create modern equipment that meets these trends should be distinguished by increased productivity in conditions of corrosion and high pressure, to ensure trouble-free operation. In such conditions, taking into account the necessary provision of acceptable cost indicators, there is no alternative to duplex steels. Their crystal structure simultaneously allows using the advantages of ferritic and austenitic phases. The report presents the results of using a compositional and technological methods for structure management, the rationale alloying with copper (3.0-3.3%). Application of ESR in the manufacture of steel billets of super duplex steel has demonstrated the ability to simultaneously achieve physical, chemical and structural homogeneity, ensuring high corrosion&mechanical characteristics. The thermodynamic and kinetic conditions for the formation of optimal phase steel composition are determined. Grounded heat treatment regimes, prevent the formation of sigma and psi-phase and contribute to the formation of stable intermetallides (30-300 nm). Based on the test results of “Gazprom-VNIIGAZ” LLC the new steel is recommended for the manufacture of valve bodies and in-vessel internals used in the fields, that containing H2S and CO2 up to 25% in the fluid.

Titanium nickelide (nitinol) is one of prospective materials for production of special endo-prostheses and other parts and characterized with effect of shape memory. A specific feature of vascular endo-prostheses is the necessity to provide the required rigidity within the temperature interval from 15 to 42 оС. It has been established that titanium nickelide is able to provide the required rigidity but it depends on preliminary heat treatment parameters. So, it is important to determine rela-tions between rigidity of titanium nickelide wire and its preliminary heat treatment parameters for the given temperature in-terval. The aim of the work is to create devices that allow to estimate radial and flexural rigidity of elements made of flexible nitinol wire for manufacturing various medical products, including endo-prostheses of vessels – stents and stent grafts, filter traps. Laboratory digital scales and a specially developed dynamometer based on a cylindrical slotted spring and inductive displacement transducer have been used for measuring a load. The paper proposes possible variants of device designs used to monitor radial rigidity of blood vessel endo-prostheses, as well as to control flexural rigidity of endo-prosthesis elements and wire for their manufacture. The developed devices allow us to evaluate mechanical characteristics of samples under the desired temperature conditions. An introduction of the developed devices has permitted to carry out an operative control on radial and flexural stiffness of intravascular endo-prostheses elements both under conditions of research investigations and during technological process of their manufacture. Currently, the devices are used to specify heat treatment regimes for nitin-ol wire from various manufacturers while manufacturing vascular endo-prostheses.

Abstract This research investigates the physical-chemical, sensorial and mechanical characteristics of starch-based edible films incorporating three types of bee hive products: honey, propolis and bee bread, in concentrations varying from 1% to 3%, reported to starch. The results indicates an increasing of films moisture, water activity, ash content and acidity, in the order: honey<propolis<bee bread, all values increasing with the increasing of hive products percentage into the control film; aw is remaining at very low values, under 0.4. Sensorial analysis indicated honey as the better suited for improving taste and flavour and bee bread for increasing colour intensity of the films; the sensorial characteristics are maintained during 30 days of films storage, in all cases. Compared with the control starch-based film (which is elastic, brittle and hard), the films containing 2% bee hive products are elasto-plastic and more resistant to penetration, the resistance increasing in the order: bee bread<propolis<honey.

he basic ideas about the process of introducing cores into protective barriers and the most common core patterns and their location in conventional and sub-caliber small arms bullets are discussed. The materials used for manufacture of cores are analyzed. It is concluded that for mass bullets of increased armor penetration the most rational choice can be considered the use of high-carbon low-alloy steels of a new generation with a natural composite structure and hardness of up to 70 HRC. For specialized armor-piercing bullets, cores made from promising economically-alloyed high-speed steels characterized by a high complex of «hardness—bending strength» are better alternative than ones made of hard alloys or tungsten alloys.

This research studies the potential for using waste ash from industrial and agricultural by-products as a pozzolanic material. Classified fly ash (FA) and ground rice husk ash (RA) were the materials used. Water requirement, compressive strength and porosity of cement mortar were investigated. Test results indicated that FA and RA (waste ash) have a high potential to be used as a good pozzolanic material. The water requirement of mortar mix decreases with the increases in fly ash content. For ground rice husk ash (RA), the water requirement of mortar mix increases with the increases in rice husk ash content. In addition, the reduction in porosity was associated with the increase in compressive strength.

Soil desertification affects the service functions of the ecosystem. In severe cases, it even causes a decline in agricultural productivity and shrinkage of animal husbandry, posing a threat to regional eco-environment and economic sustainability. The previous research on soil remediation research mainly concentrates on heavy metal degradation, saline soil improvement, and eroded and degraded soil improvement. There is little report on the biomass improvement and restoration of sandy soil. Therefore, this paper explores the remediation effect of biomass amendment on the physical-chemical performance and sustainable utilization of sandy soil in Huangyangtan, the largest sandy land in northern China’s Hebei Province. Specifically, the authors detailed the strategies to measure the physical-chemical indices and microbial diversity of Huangyangtan sandy soil, and introduced the materials and mode of the biomass amendment test on Huangyangtan sandy soil, followed by an elaboration on the test results. The influence of different test fertilizers on the soil was analyzed in four dimensions, namely, physical performance, chemical performance, biological performance, and crop yield. The results show that biomass amendment can effectively remediate sandy soil, and promote its sustainable utilization.
