The effects of equal channel angular pressing (ECAP), further heat treatment and rolling on the structure and room temperature mechanical properties of the commercial aluminum alloys 6061 (Al-0.9Mg-0.7Si) and 1560 (Al-6.5Mg-0.6Mn) were investigated. It has been shown that the strength of the alloys after ECAP is higher than that achieved after conventional processing. Prior ECAP solution treatment and post-ECAP ageing can additionally increase the strength of the 6061 alloy. Under optimal ageing conditions a yield strength (YS) of 434 MPa and am ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of 470 MPa were obtained for the alloy. Additional cold rolling leads to a YS and UTS of 475 and 500 MPa with 8% elongation. It was found that the post-ECAP isothermal rolling of the 1560 alloy resulted in the formation of a nano-fibred structure and a tensile strength (YS = 540 MPa and UTS = 635 MPa) that has never previously been observed in commercial non-heat treatable alloys.

Friction stir welding is a solid-state welding technique for joining metals such as aluminum alloys quickly and reliably. This article presents a design of experiments approach (central composite face–centered factorial design) for predicting and optimizing the process parameters of dissimilar friction stir welded AA6351–AA5083. Three weld parameters that influence weld quality were considered, namely, tool shoulder profile (flat grooved, partial impeller and full impeller), rotational speed and welding speed. Experimental results detailing the variation of the ultimate tensile strength as a function of the friction stir welding process parameters are presented and analyzed. An empirical model that relates the friction stir welding process parameters and the ultimate tensile strength was obtained by utilizing a design of experiments technique. The models developed were validated by an analysis of variance. In general, the full impeller shoulder profile displayed the best mechanical properties when compared to the other profiles. Electron backscatter diffraction maps were used to correlate the metallurgical properties of the dissimilar joints with the joint mechanical properties as obtained experimentally and subsequently modeled. The optimal friction stir welding process parameters, to maximize ultimate tensile strength, are identified and reported.

This research studied the characteristics of bioplastic from large-leafed mangrove (Bruguiera gymnorrizha) starch. This research was arranged used Randomized Block Design (RBD) model, with different starch concentration (0.5%, 1%, 1.5% and 2%) as treatment. The parameters observed were mechanical properties (tensile strength and percent elongation), thickness, water uptake and biodegradation test. The result showed that the starch concentration was not significant, (P>0.05) affected tensile strength and water resistance. Different between treatments was observed as for elongation, thickness and biodegradation test significant (P<0.05). The results obtained from the bioplastic research of large-leafed mangrove starch for tensile strength ranged from 24.59 MPa – 32.91 MPa, percent elongation 2.93% – 4.88%, thickness 0.05 mm – 0,11 mm, water resistance 108.06% – 111.09% and biodegradation test with percent weight loss 17.91% – 54.40% with the highest degradation rate 18.13 – 3.62 mg /15 days burial. The best treatment was obtained by using 1,5% starch, 4 g chitosan and 15% glycerol or equal to starch : chitosan 1.5 g : 4 g and 0.9 mL glycerol.

A series of polymer alloys based on different compositions of Nylon 6,6 oligomers (NYL66Oґs) and epoxy resin have been prepared. The oligomer was extracted from the waste residues of the industrial production of nylon 6,6 and was dissolved in the epoxy resin. The mixture was crosslinked at 333 K using dodecenylsuccinic anhydre (DDSA) as a curing agent. The tensile strength and flexural modulus were found to increase with the addition of NYLO66O up to a maximum value of 2 wt % oligomer content. Both, the tensile and impact strength show a maximum increase due to the addition of 35 wt % NYLO66O. The compressive strength testing revealed a considerable increase, up to 87 %, over that of the neat epoxy with the addition of 1 wt % NYLO66O. An interesting relationship between the mechanical properties and the developed morphology of the blends has been found.

The aim of this work is to study the effect of the time of shot peening 3mm diameter steel balls on the mechanical properties of (2024 - T3) aluminum alloy butt welds. The welds were joined using Friction stir welding method. Mechanical tests) Tensile strength, hardness, fatigue strength( were performed on welded joints to determine the variation of these properties. The experimental results of SP time, 5 and 10 minutes give an improvement in mechanical properties. It was found that the longer the time of shot peening the mechanical properties are increased to a certain extent than the effect begins whereas when shot peening time at 15 min the mechanical properties decrease due to the concentration of stresses and surface annealing. Results show that the best mechanical properties of the welded zone were obtained at 10 minutes shot time due to the high compressive stresses generated by shot peening.

AbstractTo apply the ductile structural materials, the quasicrystal dispersion in aluminum alloys is one of effective methods. We have investigated mechanical properties of quasicrystal dispersed Al- Li-Cu alloy prepared by the twin-type piston anvil apparatus. The slow cooled samples are hard and ductile. The evaluated values of brittleness are from 6.0 to 14 erg for Ef, from 0.52 to 0.73MNm−3/2 for K1c and from 5.5 to 7.7 Nm−1 for Gic for the fastest and slowest cooled samples, respectively. The hardness of the quasicrystal dispersed Al-Li-Cu alloy is higher than that of the other commercial aluminum alloys. Based on the relationship between Vickers hardness and proof stress of aluminum alloys, we estimate the specific strength of Al-Li-Cu quasicrystal alloy. The maximum value is the higher than that of Ti alloys.

The impact performance of PE can be greatly enhanced by the use of functionalized conch powder, while maintaining high tensile strength thus giving this study high potentiality for its practical applications. The conch powder was treated by titanate coupling agent NDZ-201 before use and the influence of different proportions of conch powder on the mechanical properties of PE/conch powder composite is discussed in this article. The impact strength has a maximum value of 63.4kJ/m2 and the frictional loss records a minimum of 4.27×10-1mm3/(Nm)-1 and 42.2% lower than that of pure PE.

The purpose of this study is to characterize the effects of heat damage on the electrical conductivity and static mechanical properties of aluminum alloys. The data resulting from the experiments of thermal exposure of several aluminum alloys are used to model the relations that describe the dependence of the electrical conductivity and hardness on the two main variables of these experiments: the temperature and the time of exposure. The dependence of yield strength and ultimate tensile strength on hardness values is characterized. For each case, different materials (alloys) exhibit similar general trends although there are different coefficients for each material to satisfy the general relation.

The physic-chemical characteristics of spherical and coarse magnesium particles were determined. The rheological properties of Mg/HTPB mixtures were investigated. The burning rate performance and mechanical properties of fuel rich propellant were evaluated. The results show that the spherical magnesium particles could be dispersed in the HTPB binder with lower viscosity and yield stress than those of the coarse ones. The burning rate and pressure exponent of propellant with spherical particles increased compared with the coarse ones, and the percent elongation is much higher than that of coarse one, whereas, the tensile strength shows reverse.
