This paper presents a study on the mechanical properties of rubber mortar with the inclusion SBRL (butylbenzene latex) and PP (polypropylene) fiber and the microstructures of SBR latex modified mortar were analyzed. The results proved for specimens with 20 vol.% of rubber, when the P/C of SBR latex was 10%, the compressive and flexural strength of SBR latex modified rubber mortar was optimal. Besides, for specimens with 20 vol.% of rubber, the compressive and flexural strength of SBR latex and polypropylene fiber modified rubber mortar increased with the inclusion of polypropylene fiber, especially when the P/C of SBR latex was 10%. Through scanning electron microscope (SEM), it was founded that polymer has formed a consecutive reticulate film which has a toughening effect on cement matrix.

Using the hot-pressing sintering method, Cu-matrix bonding diamond tool bits including 0, 4 and 8 % Ti content (wt.%) were prepared. The effect of Ti content on the mechanical properties of Cu-matrix bonding diamond tool bits was studied. The experimental results showed that the influence of Ti content on the flexural strengths of Cu-matrix bonding bits and diamond tool bits are significant. Furthermore, the morphologies and compositions of fracture surfaces of diamond tool bits were characterized by scanning electron microscope and energy dispersive spectroscopy. The results illustrated that when the Ti content was 4%, the interface bonding between the diamond and the Cu-matrix bonding was the strongest, the flexural strength had the maximum values of the Cu-matrix bonding bits and the diamond tool bits, the values were 644 MPa and 515.8 MPa respectively.

The effect of the neodymium content on mechanical properties of the electro-brush plated nanoAl2O3/Ni composite coating was investigated in this paper. The microstructure and phase structure were studied with scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The hardness and abrasion properties of several coatings with different neodymium content were studied by nanoindentation test and friction / wear experiment. Results show that the coatings are much finer and more compact when the neodymium was added, and the hardness and abrasion property of the coatings with neodymium were improved obviously. Besides, the small cracks conduced by the upgrowth stress in the coatings were ameliorated when the rare earth neodymium was added. The improvement mechanism was further discussed.

. Banks of stone materials from Michoacán, Mexico were characterized, since they are used in the construction of infrastructure in the area. With these materials are made hydraulic concrete mixtures or asphalt mixtures, foundations, paving stones and in restoration of historical monuments. The rocks analyzed and characterized, come from banks of volcanic stone materials and banks of crushed stone materials, which were subjected to mechanical tests such as uniaxial compression resistance (UCR), in addition was used scanning electron microscope (SEM), by means of which the characterization was carried out, obtaining morphological information of the material. The comparison of physical-mechanical properties with the elements they possess is important to estimate their behavior within ceramic matrices or as a structural element.

Rolling and punching techniques of AZ31 alloy were investigated in this paper. Various rolling experiments were carried out to make fine-grained Mg sheets. Punching tests were conducted at the temperatures range from 70 to 300 oC. The analysis revealed that there existed an excellent warm forming temperature for as-rolled AZ31 alloy. A warm deep punching tool setup using heating elements was designed and manufactured to produce the cell phone. Microstructures were observed using optical and scanning electron microscope equipped with EBSD. The textures in as-rolled and as-annealed specimens attribute to different mechanical properties along the various direction.

In this study a series of green thermoset resins have been produced from blending acrylated epoxidized palm oil (AEPO) and unsaturated polyester (UPE). The UPE/AEPO ratio was changed between 90/10 and 70/30 wt%. The curing behavior and morphology of hybrid systems were investigated by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and Scanning electron microscope (SEM). Moreover, studies on mechanical properties were performed by tensile and flexural tests. The results revealed that, these green thermoset resins exhibit thermo mechanical properties comparable to those of commercial unsaturated polyesters.

In this study, jute fibers and polypropylene fiber (PP) were added into cement-based mortar to improve their compressive strength. Results obtained have shown that the compressive strength of the motar was perfect with jute fiber of 19mm length at the fiber contents of 0.8 kg·m-3. The reinforcing mechanism of fiber in the motar was analyzed by means of comparing of the mortar compressive properties under different circumstances, and the testing results of scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the addition of filament in experiments.

In recent, the development of new die materials is one of the important topics in the field of die research. In this paper, effects of nano-ZrO2 addition on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti(C,N)-based cermets were studied. The newly developed Ti(C,N)-based cermet die materials with different contents of nano-ZrO2 of 0~25wt% were prepared by hot pressing technique under vacuum atmosphere at 1450°C for 30min. Moreover, the microstructure of this Ti(C,N)-based cermet die materials was observed by environmental scanning electron microscope. It indicates that the comprehensive mechanical properties can reach the optimum when the weight percent of the nano-ZrO2 is 10%. The corresponding flexural strength and fracture toughness is 967 MPa and 13.62 MPa•m1/2, respectively which is approximately 65% and 110% higher than that of the cermet without nano-ZrO2 addition. It suggests that the addition of nano-ZrO2 can improve the mechanical properties especially the fracture toughness and flexural strength of Ti(C,N)-based cermet die materials.

A biodegradable gradient polymeric membrane based on chitosan (CS) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) has been prepared by microwave technique. The composition and morphology variation along the thickness direction in membrane were measured by elemental analysis and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The tensile properties of CS/PVA gradient membrane were tested. Results showed that the content of either polymer shows a gradient variation along the thickness direction. SEM photographs exhibit that morphology also evolves gradually with the varying percentage ratio of two polymers. As a result of such variations in composition and structure, the mechanical properties on both sides exhibit a significant difference. Compared with conventional isotropic membrane, gradient membrane has improved mechanical properties.
