This paper deals with experimental and analytical investigations of the influence of thermomechanical processing conditions on the mechanical properties and electrical conductivity of PdNi5 alloy, in the form of wire ? 0.15 mm, for making catalysts-catchers. Obtained results showed that mechanical properties and electrical conductivity depend on the applied regime of thermomechanical processing. Knowing the dependence of influence of parameters of thermomechanical processing regime on these properties enables the production of PdNi5 alloy with required characteristics for use in the process of catalytic oxidation of ammonia, that is solving problems of loss of platinum metals, especially platinum. The results of analytical investigations of influence of thermomechanical processing regime, by software package SPSS, on tensile strength, elongation and electrical conductivity of PdNi5 alloy in the form of wire ? 0.15 mm showed that using a linear regression model the mutual influences of selected parameters of thermomechanical treatment on mechanical properties and electrical conductivity of PdNi5 alloy, can be adequately described and analyzed. The results showed that tensile strength and electrical conductivity were only slightly affected with a change of temperature and time of annealing while annealing time has significant influence on the elongation value.

The topic of this research work was to demonstrate the feasibility of a 3D-MID concept using injection molding technique and investigate the effects of two weld line types on the structure and mechanical properties such as tensile, flexural strength and morphology. In order to obtain more understanding of the bonds between polymer and metals, two different polymer bases of polyphthalamide (PPA) with the same type and amount of filler content were produced by injection molding at the different processing conditions. A mold was designed in such a way that weld and meld line can be produced with different angles by changing as insert inside of the mold. The mechanical properties such as stiffness, tensile strength and flexural strength were determined in tensile and flexural tests, respectively. The results showed in line with the expectation of high reduction on mechanical properties in area where weld/meld lines occurred. The result of tensile test was clearly seen that weld and meld line showed a considerable influence on mechanical properties. The reduction in tensile strength was approximately 58% according to weld line types, whereas in flexural strength was approximately 62%. On the other hand, the effect of the injection times and mold temperatures on the tensile strength were marginal.

In this study, changes in the microstructure, mechanical properties, and electrical conductivity of cast and extruded Al–Zn–Cu–Mg based alloys with the addition of Li (0, 0.5 and 1.0 wt.%) were investigated. The Al–Zn–Cu–Mg–xLi alloys were cast and homogenized at 570 °C for 4 hours. The billets were hot extruded into rod that were 12 mm in diameter with a reduction ratio of 38:1 at 550 °C. As the amount of Li added increased from 0 to 1.0 wt.%, the average grain size of the extruded Al alloy increased from 259.2 to 383.0 µm, and the high-angle grain boundaries (HGBs) fraction decreased from 64.0 to 52.1%. As the Li content increased from 0 to 1.0 wt.%, the elongation was not significantly different from 27.8 to 27.4% and the ultimate tensile strength (UTS) was improved from 146.7 to 160.6 MPa. As Li was added, spherical particles bonded to each other, forming an irregular particles. It is thought that these irregular particles contribute to the strength improvement.

Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy have been widely used in aerospace industry. However, there is still a lack of research on thermal stability of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy products. In the present work, an Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy with T79 and T74 states was placed in the corresponding environment for thermal exposure experiments. Performance was measured by tensile strength, hardness and electrical conductivity. In this paper, precipitation observation was analyzed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HREM). The precipitations of T79 state alloy were GPⅡ zone, η' phase and η phase while the ultimate tensile strength, hardness and electrical conductivity were 571MPa, 188.2HV and 22.2MS×m-1, respectively. The mechanical property of T79 state alloy decreased to 530MPa and 168.5HV after thermal exposure. The diameter of precipitate increased and the precipitations become η' and η phase at the same time. During the entire thermal exposure, T74 state alloy had the same mechanical property trend as T79 state alloy. The precipitate diameter also increased while the types of precipitate did not change under thermal exposure. The size of precipitates affected the choice of dislocation passing through the particles to affect the mechanical properties.

In order to form the necessary data base on platinum and platinum metals, certain tests were carried out on platinum samples of different purity of 99.5%, 99.9% and 99.99%. The degree of cold deformation, annealing temperature and chemical assays were tested as well as their impact on the mechanical properties of platinum. The Vickers hardness (HV) values were determined with different deformation degree, starting from annealing temperatures for platinum of different purity and tensile strength (Rm), flow limit (Rp0,2) and elongation (A) in the function of annealing temperatures and annealing time at a constant deformation degree.

The processing conditions of graphene oxide and graphene fibers are important for final fiber properties. The effect of different processing conditions such as feed rate, nozzle size (length and diameter), and reduction time by vitamin C on fiber properties such as morphology, mechanical properties and electrical conductivity has been analyzed. It has been observed that at the constant feed rates, increase in nozzle length results in higher mechanical properties. For the samples produced with long nozzle, thinner nozzle results to higher mechanical properties than thicker one. Decrease in nozzle length and increase in feed rate and reduction time by vitamin C resulted in an increased crimpy structure of fiber surface. Higher fiber strength was observed when the reduction time was decreased. The increase in the feed rate resulted in an increase of fiber linear densities (tex). All fibers experimented were in the semiconductor range. In this study, it has been seen that short, thin nozzles with 10 ml/h feed rate and reduction with 2.5 h provided better mechanical properties along with electrical conductivity.

The paper investigates a variety of properties of thin aluminum sheets fabricated using physical action of pulsed magnetic fields and weak pulsed current. The possibility of using thermal resistant aluminum alloys parts in aircraft manufacturing, including ones made by forming processes which require sufficiently high plasticity of initial sheets, is widely discussed. Two possible technological options have been tested for manufacturing sheet samples of Al-Cu-Mn and Al-Mg-Si alloys. A set of properties has been investigated (thermal resistance, mechanical properties, specific electrical conductivity, macrostructure of weldability zones, corrosion resistance of alloy samples. Casted workpieces were thermo-mechanically treated by heating and upsetting to 50 – 55 % with consequent hardening and aging. After that workpieces were subjected to multi-cycle rolling up to 0.3x10-3 m. The achieved results demonstrate that after 400 hours of exposure to 250°C, the thermal resistant parameters by tensile strength are higher after the exposure to weak pulsed currents than after the exposure to pulsed magnetic fields. Maximal thermal resistant parameters by tensile strength and maximal electrical conductivity was achieved in 01327+Sc (Al-Mg-Si) alloy. The mechanical properties, corrosion resistance and Erichsen formability parameters were also determined.

Electrical conductivity, tensile strength and micro-hardness of Cu-3.5wt.%Ti-0.1wt.%Zr-RE alloy were investigated after optimizing technics of plastic deformation and the heat treatment. The results show that good combination of the physical and mechanical properties, such as tensile strength 1160 MPa, micro-hardness 335 Hv and electrical conductivity 15 IACS% can be obtained on peak aging at 420°C for 7 h. Maximum strength was associated with the precipitation of metastable, ordered and coherent β/ (Cu4Ti) phase on peak aging. Then the strength decreased due to the precipitation of β (Cu3Ti) phase in alloys overaged.

AbstractThe influence of annealing on the microstructure and molecular orientation, thermal behaviour and mechanical properties of uniaxially drawn iPP thin film was studied by wide-angle X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry and tensile testing, respectively. The correlations of mechanical and microstructural properties of annealed films were also examined. The transformation of smectic phase of iPP to the α-form was more pronounced with increasing annealing time and temperature. The true and apparent crystallinities and crystal thickness were strongly enhanced with annealing time and temperature. The relative molecular orientation tended to increase with annealing time. These results caused the significant improvement of modulus and tensile strength of the annealed films in both machine (MD) and transverse (TD) directions. The increases in MD-Young’s modulus and MD-tensile strength were well correlated with the increase in true crystallinity obtained in equatorial scans. Some relationship between the increase in crystal thickness and the increase in Young’s modulus in both MD and TD directions was also found.

The PVDF (poly(vinylidene fluoride)) is the recommended material for pressure barrier application when the temperature is above 90 C and below 130 C (API Specification 17J). Two grades of PVDFs used in flexible raisers were processed. The grades selected were those for extrusion, but they were compression molded instead. The processing conditions were the same for each grade, from slow to fast cooling rate. The results allowed the evaluation of their performance using a simpler processing technique and, also, to observe how the mechanical properties varied with the cooling rate applied.
