Abstract The paper studies the effect of violation of the spreading of powder paints when they are compounded with nanofibers of aluminum oxide. It is shown that with the addition of small fractions of aluminum oxide nanofibers equal to 0.05 wt%, the grains of the powder paint do not have time to wet each other, the crosslinking of the coating structure occurs up to this point, which is fixed by a characteristic granular texture. The paper also illustrates the features of the distribution of nanofibers of aluminum oxide in the coating. The increase in cohesion energy leads to a natural increase in the surface tension in the paint, which we observe in the form of the characteristic morphology of the coating. Investigation of coatings of a reference powder paint and a modified addition of aluminum oxide nanofibers) were carried out using an optical microscope. Separately, the morphology of the resin was investigated by scanning electron microscopy. Increasing the proportion of the flow agent based on acrylic compounds in the polyester resin from 0.8 to 1.8 wt% solves this problem, while the strengthening effect of nanofibers of alumina in the paint is retained.

The variation rules of strength with the microstructure and precipitates of container steel were studied by optical microscope (OM), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The results show that the microstructures of four kinds of test steels are all bainite and M/A island, but the number and size of islands of M/A and precipitates exist obvious difference: two kinds of test steels have fewer precipitates and more M/A islands, however, the other two kinds of steels are on the contrary. As for the former two kinds steels, the number of M/A islands is larger, and the size is smaller, the strength of steel is higher; For the later two kinds steels, the number of precipitates less than 30nm is larger, and distribution is more uniform dispersion, the strength is higher, precipitation strengthening effect is better. Getting lots of small and uniform M/A islands or precipitates is an effective way of improving the performance of steel.

The problems of changes in the coating structure depending on the composition of the sprayed mechanical mixture using copper particles and mixture of copper and zinc particles (" brass") and the effect of structural factors on the tribological properties of the deposited metal layer are considered. The results of X-ray structural, phase, chemical and durometric analyzes, as well as tribological testing of coatings are presented. It is found that structure with hardness of ≈102.7 HV is formed in the coating from mechanical mixture of particles of copper and aluminum oxide (corundum). Numerous pores are observed in the structure of the deposited metal layer, the main size of which does not exceed 2 μm. In the coating from mechanical mixture of particles copper, zinc and aluminum oxide (corundum), structure is formed based on copper with hardness of ≈106.5 HV, zinc — ≈49.7 HV, intermetallic compounds (γ- and ε-phases) — ≈168.7 HV, the mass fraction of which is 62.0, 7.9 and 24.2 %, respectively. Both coatings can be used in sliding friction pairs.

The new generation of bearing steel has good comprehensive properties, which can satisfy most of the requirements of bearing steel in a complex environment. In the presented work, fatigue properties of 15Cr14Co12Mo5Ni2 bearing steel have been investigated by means of rotating bending fatigue tests on smooth bar specimens after carburization and heat treatment. Optical microscope, scanning electron microscopy, electron backscatter diffraction, and Image-Pro Plus software were used to analyze the fracture, microstructure, and carbides. The results suggest that the fatigue strength at room temperature and 500 °C is 1027 MPa and 585 MPa, respectively. Scanning electron micrographic observations on the fracture surface of the fatigue specimens at 500 °C show that fatigue cracks usually initiate from voids in the carburized case and oxide layer on the surface of steel. The failure mode in the carburized case is a quasi-cleavage fracture, and with the increase of crack propagation depth, the failure mode gradually changes to fatigue and creep-fatigue interaction. With the increase of the distance from the surface, the size of the martensite block decreases and the fracture surface shows great fluctuation.

Abstract Historically, sutras played an important role in spreading Buddhist faith and doctrine, and today these remain important records of Buddhist thought and culture. A Mahamayuri Vidyarajni Sutra with polychrome paintings was found inside the cavity on top of the Nanmen Buddhist pagoda, built in the early Tang dynasty (618–627 CE) and located in Anhui Province, China. Textile was found on the preface which is strongly degraded and fragile. Unfortunately, the whole sutra is under severe degradation and is incomplete. Technical analysis based on scientific methods will benefits the conservation of the sutra. Optical microscopy (OM), micro-Raman spectroscopy combined with optical microscope (Raman), scanning electron microscopy in combination with energy dispersive X-ray analysis (SEM–EDS) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) were used to characterize the pigment and gilded material, as well as the paper fiber and textile. Pigments such as cinnabar, minium, paratacamite, azurite, lead white were found. Gilded material was identified as gold. A five-heddle warp satin, made of silk, was found as the textile on the preface of the sutra. The sutra’s preface and inner pages were made of paper comprised of bamboo and bark. As a magnificent yet recondite treasure of Buddhism, the sutra was analyzed for a better understanding of the material. A conservation project of the sutra will be scheduled accordingly.

Hybrid nanocomposites were successfully prepared by the incorporation of polyethersulfone (PES) and organoclay into epoxy resin. They had higher fracture toughness than the prepared PES/epoxy blend and organoclay/epoxy nanocomposites. The microstructures of the hybrid nanocomposites were studied. They were comprised of homogeneous PES/epoxy semi-interpenetrating network (semi-IPN) matrices and organoclay micro-agglomerates made up of tactoid-like regions composed of ordered exfoliated organoclay with various orientations. The former was confirmed with dynamic mechanical analysis, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy, while the latter was successfully observed with X-ray diffraction measurements, optical microscope, scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscope. The improvement of their fracture toughness was due to the synergistic toughening effect of the PES and the organoclay and related to their microstructures.

Premature fracture of an axle under torsional load occurred after a tracked military tank had experienced field testing for only 80 kilometers. Visual metallographic examinations were performed with optical microscope (OM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The investigation demonstrates that the premature fracture is caused by metallurgical problems inside the axle where the primary and secondary cracks originate, propagate, and eventually result in final catastrophic rupture through torsional fatigue. The failure mechanism is summarized and improvement of the fatigue lifetime for the axle is recommended.

This work is a contribution towards the understanding of wire bond integrity and reliability in relation to their microstructural and mechanical properties in semiconductor packaging.The effect of surface roughness and hardness of leadframe on the bondability of Au wedge bond still requires detail analysis. Two type of leadframes namely leadframe A and leadframe B were chosen and scanning electron microscope (SEM) and optical microscope were used to inspect the surface morphology of leadframes and the quality of created Au wedge bond after wire bonding process. It was found that there were significant differences in the surface morphologies between these two leadframes. The atomic force microscopy (AFM) which was utilized to measure the average roughness, Ra of lead finger confirms that leadframe A has the highest Ra with value of 166.46 nm compared to that of leadframe B with value of 85.89 nm. While hardness value of different lead finger from the selected leadframe A and B obtained using Vicker microhardness tester are 180.9 VH and 154.2VH respectively.

This experimental study investigates the effect of tightening speed and coating on both the torque – tension relationship and wear pattern in threaded fastener applications. The fastener torque – tension relationship is highly sensitive to normal variations in the coefficients of friction between threads and between the turning head and the surface of the joint. Hence, the initial level of the joint clamp load and the overall integrity and reliability of a bolted assembly is significantly influenced by the friction coefficients. The effect of repeated tightening and loosening is also investigated using M12, Class 8.8, fasteners with and without zinc coating. The torque – tension relationship is examined in terms of the non-dimensional nut factor K. The wear pattern is examined by monitoring the changes in surface roughness using a WYKO optical profiler and by using a LECO optical microscope. A Hitachi S-3200N Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) is used to examine the contact surfaces, under the fastener head, after each tightening/loosening cycle. Experimental data on the effect of variables and the tightening speed, fastener coating and repeated tightening on the nut factor are presented and analyzed for M8 and M12, class 8.8, fasteners.
