Based on the novel USW method, the welds of Polylactide (PLA) - Polyformaldehyde (POM) and PLA - polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) have been carried out. The interdiffusion processes of polymer chains have also been investigated according to the reptation theory and the hauling theory. The welding strengths are carried out by the universal tester and the rupture interfaces are observed using the scanning electron microscope. The best welding strength is 52MPa (90% compared with PLA of the PLA-POM system), which can reach the tensile strength of IPS. The molecules of POM are much easier to inter-diffuse than those of PLA and PMMA.

This paper summarizes the investigations of hydroentangled islands-in-the-sea (PA6/COPET) fiber webs. An increase in water jet pressure improved the tensile strength and fiber splitting while elongation at break decreased. Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) micrographs and ANOVA (MS Excel ™) were used for characterizing fiber splitting and data analyses respectively. It can be concluded that with a new innovation in spinnerette design and modification of co-polyester structure, PA6/COPET, fibers can be split in the hydroentanglement process without dissolution of the sea component.

Zr-Al-Si posts were successfully synthesized using biotemplate of eggshell membrane by sol-gel method and strengthening with matrix of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). The dental posts made were analyzed with the scanning electron microscope (SEM), three point bending and microvickers hardness tester. There are two methods used to synthesized Zr-Al-Si posts, with calcination and without calcination. The synthesized mechanism is discussed here.

We present a novel method of pattern nanofabrication with high resolution and small shape defects using the traditional electron-beam lithography (EBL) or only a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Our method of Spot EBL is extremely fast, highly scalable on big areas, capable of sub-20 nm resolution and fabrication of polymer patterns with complicated shapes. We show the nanostructure images fabricated by Spot EBL and propose practical applications of the novel method.

In this paper, the Al-8.5Fe-1.3V-1.7Si alloys were fabricated by spray forming and extrusion process. The microstructure and mechanical properties of the alloy were investigated by means of metallographic, scanning electron microscope and tensile test. The results indicate that the tensile strength of the extrued alloys can reach 353MPa, the yield strength 300MPa, elongation 19.12%, at room temperature. At 250°C, the tensile strength of the extrued alloys can reach 221MPa, the yield strength 208MPa, elongation 13.33%.

This study shows a optimization usage of SA and PAE on enhancing both wet and dry strength of paper. The influence of the dosage of PAE and the viscosity of SA on the binary system for strengthening of paper have been studied and compared with paper which use PAE alone as a wet strength additive. A optimization ratio of PAE/SA was obtained, and with this ratio unchanged the amount of PAE/SA and initial of pH of the pulp has been tested. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used as a assistant method to observe those influence. The results showes that PAE/SA binary strengthening system for paper has a better property than that of PAE alone as a wet strength additive. The optimal viscosity of SA is about 350 mPa•S and the optimal ratio of PAE and SA is 3:2 and the addition of PAE and SA are 0.75% and 0.5% respectively. SEM analyses confirm that the film-forming property of PAE is accelerated by SA and it is also noticeable that the PAE/SA film can stick to the suface of fibres uniformly in the aqueous pulp slurry environment. The reaserch on the effects of the slurries at different pH to the wet and dry tensile strength prove that PAE/SA strength system is more suitable for neutral and alkaline papermaking conditions.

Determination of the mechanical properties of rock containing pre-existing cracks under tension condition is of great significance to understand the failure process of rock in engineering. This paper presents the experimental results of sandstone containing pre-existing cracks under Brazilian compression. The characteristics of the microcracks were analyzed by a scanning electron microscope. The results show that the rock containing pre-existing cracks has an obvious anisotropic characteristic. When the crack inclination is 45°, the rock has the minimum tensile strength and the weakest axial deformation resistance.

The water absorption on self-cured acrylic resin is higher than the heat cured acrylic resin. Incoming water positions itself between the polymer chains and affects the surface microstructure of self-cured acrylic resin. The absorption of liquids such as Arabica Gayo coffee may aggravate the surface structure of self-cured acrylic resins due to their acid content. This study aims to find out the microstructure of self-cured acrylic resin surface after immersed in Arabica Gayo coffee for 2 and 7 days. This study used 5 specimens of self-cured acrylic resin (MeliodentTM) with size 10x10x1,5 mm3. Each specimen was immersed in aquades for 24 hours to reduce the residual monomer and then be given different immersion treatments. The immersion temperature used was 55°C. After immersion, surface microstructure observation was done using Scanning Electron Microscope (JEOL JSM 6510 LA). The images obtained were bubbles after being immersed in aquades for 2 days and more on day 7, micro porous after being immersed in Arabica Gayo coffee for 2 days and more on day 7 than untreated specimens. The conclusion of this study is micro porous formed more on the surface of self-cured acrylic resin along with the duration of self-cured acrylic resin immersion in Arabica Gayo coffee.

Ductility and tensile strength are among the basic mechanical properties of polymers. Generally, it is difficult to enhance the ductility without significantly reducing the tensile strength. In this study, thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) is mixed with 0%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, 10%, and 12.5% polyamide 6 (PA6). The results show that the sample containing 100% TPU has the largest elongation of 690.5%. When PA6 is added, the elongation decreases gradually to 635.0%, 623.1%, 529.5%, 476.0%, 391.3%, and 242.8%, corresponding to 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, 10%, 12.5%, and 100% PA6, respectively. The tensile strengths are 36.7, 33.8, 29.4, 26.5, 23.1, and 24.9 MPa, corresponding to 0%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, 10%, and 12.5% PA6 samples, respectively. The tensile strength decreases gradually when the PA6 content is increased. Notably, the tensile strength of the 12.5% PA6 sample increases compared to the 10% PA6 sample. In addition, the hardness of the TPU/PA blend increases slightly as the PA6 ratio is increased. Finally, scanning electron microscope images demonstrate that PA6 particles act as particles dispersed or dissolved in TPU/PA blends.

The durability airworthiness verification of turbine blade is one key issue in the process of certifying a type certificate for the aircraft engine. This paper summarizes the limiting factors for turbine blade durability and proposes a compliance method to evaluate the durability life of turbine blade. The typical standards of blade durability were selected and evolution history of the regulations was traced. The regulation contents and differences between CCAR-33 and CS-E were analyzed. A series of compliance methods in airworthiness verification process were discussed in detail. Furthermore, an experimental compliance methodology was proposed to estimate the durability life of turbine blade, considering the damage of creep and fatigue. The novel methodology was verified using the scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis. These efforts are of great benefit to support the process of obtaining the final type certificate.

The composites of PP/Talc modified by stearic acid were prepared and its effect on the properties of PP/Talc composites was investigated in this paper. The tensile strength and impact strength of PP/Talc composites increased about 15% and 30% compared with pure PP respectively. Based on surface analysis by scanning electron microscope (SEM), the Talcparticles buried well in PP matrix when the Talc was coated with the stearic acid. At the same time, it was found that Talc significantly increased the crystallization temperature and crystallization rate of PP by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).
