Morfologi dan properti campuran (blend) karet alam jenis SIR-20/polypropylene (NR/PP) yang divulkanisasi dinamik dalam internal mixer telah dipelajari. Blend dibuat dengan rasio berat NR/PP 10/90, 20/80, 50/50, 60/40 dan 70/30 dan komposisi sulfur 3 dan 5 phr (per hundred rubber). Proses pencampuran dilakukan pada suhu 180 oC dan kecepatan rotor 60 rpm. Analisa morfologi menggunakan SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope) dan DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry). Properti mekanik yang diukur meliputi tensile strength, elongation at break, izod impact, tearing dan hardness, berdasarkan standar ASTM. Didapatkan bahwa peningkatan rasio NR/PP menghasilkan distribusi partikel NR yang makin merata dengan ukuran yang makin kecil. Morfologi blend menunjukkan sistem dua fasa dan vulkanisasi fasa NR terjadi secara parsial dalam matrik PP. Peningkatan rasio NR/PP dan komposisi sulfur dapat meningkatkan properti elongation at break, namun menurunkan properti tensile strength, izod impact, tearing dan hardness. Elongation at break tertinggi yang dapat diperoleh adalah 70% pada rasio blend NR/PP 70/30 dan komposisi sulfur 5 phr.

Meningkatnya densitas uranium dari 2,96 gU/cm3 menjadi 5,2 gU/cm3 bahan bakar U3Si2/Al harus diikuti dengan penggunaan kelongsong yang kompatibel. Bahan bakar berdensitas tinggi mempunyai kekerasan yang tinggi, sehingga bila menggunakan paduan AlMg2 sebagai kelongsong dapat menyebabkan terjadi dogbone pada saat perolan. Selain fenomena dogbone, pada saat bahan bakar tersebut digunakan di reaktor dapat terjadi swelling karena meningkatnya hasil fisi maupun burn up. Oleh karena itu, perlu dicari pengganti bahan kelongsong untuk bahan bakar U3Si2/Al densitas tinggi. Pada penelitian ini telah dilakukan karakterisasi paduan AlMgSi sebagai kandidat pengganti kelongsong AlMg2. Karakterisasi yang dilakukan meliputi analisis termal, kekerasan, mikrostruktur dan laju korosi. Analisis termal dilakukan menggunakan DTA (Differential Thermal Analysis) dan DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry). Analisis kekerasan menggunakan alat uji kekerasan mikro, mikrostruktur menggunakan SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope) dan analisis laju korosi dilakukan dengan pemanasan pada temperatur 150 oC selama 77 jam di dalam autoclave. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa kelongsong AlMgSi maupun AlMg2 mempunyai kompatibilitas panas dengan bahan bakar U3Si2/Al cukup stabil hingga temperatur 650 oC. Kelongsong AlMgSi mempunyai kekerasan sebesar 115 HVN dan kelongsong AlMg2 sebesar 70,1 HVN. Sementara itu, analisis mikrostruktur menunjukkan bahwa morfologi ikatan antarmuka (interface bonding) kelongsong AlMgSi lebih baik dari kelongsong AlMg2, demikian halnya dengan laju korosi bahwa kelongsong AlMgSi mempunyai laju korosi lebih kecil dibanding kelongsong AlMg2. Hasil karakterisasi termal, kekerasan, mikrostruktur dan laju korosi menunjukkan bahwa PEB U3Si2/Al densitas 5,2 gU/cm3 menggunakan kelongsong AlMgSi lebih baik dibanding PEB U3Si2/Al  densitas 5,2 gU/cm3  menggunakan kelongsong AlMg2.Kata kunci: U3Si2/Al, densitas 5,2 gU/cm3, kelongsong AlMgSi dan AlMg2.

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.

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 blend of poly(styrene-co-acrylonitrile) (SAN) and natural rubber (NR) is immiscible and incompatible which lead to poor mechanical properties. Many methods can be carried out to improve the compatibility. In this work, the potential of various reactive compatibilizers in SAN and NR blend was explored. The morphological and mechanical properties were compared. The melt blending of SAN and NR were prepared in an internal mixer with various types of reactive agent such as styrene-co-maleic anhydride (SMA), maleic anhydride (MA), peroxide and mixed reactive agents. The morphological textures of the blends were investigated by scanning electron microscope. Mechanical properties including tensile strength, impact strength and elongation at break were measured. The results of morphological observations revealed that SAN/NR blend with reactive agent, the mixture of SMA and MA show the smallest and the most uniform dispersed NR particles, where the size of NR particle is about 1 µm. The mechanical properties of the blends revealed impact strength and elongation at break were increased with addition of reactive agents. SAN/NR blend with the mixture of SMA and MA showed the highest elongation at break but it had lower impact strength than the blend with SMA.

Mechanical properties of Al-12Zn-2.4Mg-1.2Cu alloy extruded sheet were investigated by tensile tests. Microstructures were investigated by optical microscopy (OM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The result shows that no matter in the L direction or in the T direction, the tensile strength and yield strength decrease with the increasing of the extrusion temperature in different states. The tensile strength and yield strength in the L direction are higher than in the T direction at different extrusion temperatures and different treatment states. When temperature is 340°C, the highest tensile strength is 780 MPa and the highest yield strength is 753 MPa in the two-stage solution and two-stage aging state. The reason for the higher mechanical properties are in the L direction in different states is mainly depend on the distribution direction of the grains.

CaCO3 whiskers were treated by stearic acid and the surface property of the treated whisker were evaluated by activation index. When the mass fraction of stearic acid was 4.0%, activation exponential increased to 80.0% almost from zero. The composites were prepared by blending with polypropylene and the treated whiskers. The performance of the composites, such as thermal behavior, mechanical properties and microstructure, were analyzed with differential scanning calorimetry, scanning electron microscopy and tensile testing. The results showed that CaCO3 whisker played heterogeneous nucleation to induce crystalline behavior of PP phase in the blends and the crystallization rate of PP phase also increased because of CaCO3 whiskers intervening. Moreover thermo-decomposing temperature and tensile strengths of the blends all increased with increasing whisker content, except a little less than that of pure PP as filling 3.22% CaCO3 whiskers, but the elongation at break increased with increasing whisker content.

Four zinc-rich coatings were applied onto steel substrate and then placed in neutral salt spray for 4000 h in order to study the anti-corrosion performance of the coatings. The results showed that the samples with two kinds of the coatings were more seriously eroded than the others. The reasons could be that the zinc particles were dispersed inhomogeneous in the binder and the zinc content was very lower than 96 wt. % obtained through the analysis of Scanning Electron Microscope and Differential Scanning Calorimetry.
