In this work cBN-TiN composites were studied. The composites were prepared by the HPHT technique (p=8 GPa, T=1750 0C). A TiN binding phase was used in two forms: as micro and nanomaterials. Thermodynamic calculations showed that formation of new phases in the cBNTiN composites was not possible in the experimental conditions which was confirmed by XRD investigations carried out. The surface morphology of nanocomposites was studied by scanning electron microscopy. The structure of these composites was compact; a TiN phase was uniformly distributed between cBN grains. Hardness was measured by the Vickers method using an indentation load of 9.81 N. The hardness of the investigated samples was dependent on the volume and grain size of the binding phase. Young's modulus of elasticity was determined, but its value was found to be dependent on the grain size of the TiN phase.

A novel and inexpensive bucky gel electrode has been investigated for use as the electrode substrate for deposition of polypyrrole. The electroactive polymer membrane was successfully deposited and the surface morphology studied using scanning electron microscopy. Given the properties of the bucky gel electrode and its ability to conduct ions, this work establishes the first step towards a semi-solid ion-gating system to be used in further applications.

The Cu0.81Ni0.19 has been synthesized directly from elemental powder of nickel and copper by mechanical alloying. The alloyed Cu0.81Ni0.19 alloy powders are prepared by milling of 8h. The grain size calculated by Scherrer equation of the NiCu alloy decreased with the increasing of milling time. The end-product was analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM)

Manusia memiliki batas kemampuan mendengar suara pada rentang hingga 140 dB, lebih daripada itu akan terjadi kerusakan pada organ-organ dalam gendang telinga. Ampas tebu PG Kremboeng mengandung 70,97% silikat murni yang berpotensi memberikan penguatan pada papan serat dan meningkatkan performa serap bunyi. Metode yang digunakan untuk sintesis nano silikat ampas tebu dilakukan dengan cara Pretreatment BBA, tukar kation silikat, dan pencucian gel kering. Komponen silikat dan produk lain dalam ampas tebu ditentukan menggunakan difraksi sinar-X (XRD). Morfologi xerogels nano silikat dan papan serat telah diteliti dengan menggunakan Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Daya serap ditentukan dari berat sebelum dan sesudah perendaman dalam air 24 jam. Pengujian keteguhan patah dan Modulus of Elasticity dilakukan dengan Universal Testing Machine. Uji Internal Bond direkatkan pada dua buah blok alumunium dengan perekat besi dan dibiarkan mengering. Koefisien serap diukur dengan sound level meter. Berdasarkan pola XRD, dapat diketahui bahwa terdeteksi medium silicate hydroxide. Berdasarkan mikrograf SEM dapat diketahui suatu struktur bongkahan yang memanjang halus terdiri atas kumpulan-kumpulan partikel nano silikat pada papan dengan template serat sabut kelapa. Sampel terbaik dalam penelitian ini adalah I (60%;17%;23%) dengan nilai DSA 82,38%, MOR 102,84 kg/cm2, MOE 11.228,52 kg/cm2, dan IB 0,83 kg/cm2. Interval nilai koofisien serap taraf intensitas bunyi antar sampel adalah 0,527 &lt; x &lt; 1,000 pada pagi hari, 0,544 &lt; x &lt; 1,000 pada siang hari, dan 0,538 &lt; x &lt; 1,000 pada malam hari. Sehingga secara keseluruhan interval pada segala kondisi waktu adalah 0,527 &lt; x &lt; 1,000.

The influence of the light burning temperature on the sintering property of nature dolomite has been investigated by two-step sintering process in the temperature range 1500 °C to 1600 °C. The resulting bulk densities and apparent porosities of the sintered dolomite samples were examined, and analyzing the sintered dolomite by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction were performed. The results showed light burned at 850 °C for 3 h, the main phases of the dolomite with 3-5 grain size were MgO, CaO and little CaCO3, and then fired at 1600 °C,the density of sintering dolomite reached to 3.38 g/cm3, the apparent property was 1.2 %, the size of MgO grain up to 3.75 μm . However when dolomite light burned at 1050 °C for 3 h, the main phases were MgO and CaO, and then fired at 1600 °C,the density of sintering dolomite only was 3.30 g/cm3, the apparent property was 2.3 %, the size of MgO only was 3.05 μm .

Effects of water-induced changes in poultry tissue microtopography on numbers of bacteria retained by pieces of tissue immersed in saline suspensions of test organisms were examined. Skin and muscle fascia, not previously exposed to water, retained more bacteria following extended dips in these suspensions compared to a control 15-s dip. Nonmotile bacteria were retained equally as well as motile test strains. Scanning electron microscopy revealed significant changes in tissue microtopography occurred during the course of the immersion experiments. Also shown by this technique was bacteria neither attached nor accumulated at any specific site on the surface of the tissue sample examined under the experimental conditions used. These results suggested contamination of poultry tissues by bacteria during immersion in aqueous fluids, was related to changes in tissue microtopography.

The fatigue life and fatigue stress of 30CrMnSiA material are studied by fracture retro estimation under experimental conditions. With the help of Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), fatigue crack can be observed. By Paris law, the fatigue life and fatigue stress of 30CrMnSiA material can be estimated by fatigue striation under the experimental environment. The method is simple and feasible, and the relative error is lower.

CuInSe2 thin films were obtained by selenization of the Cu-In precursors in the atmosphere of Se vapour, which were prepared on stainless steel and titanium substrates by electrodeposition. The films were characterized by XRD, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The respective influences of composition, phases and surface morphology of Cu-In precursors on indium loss were investigated. The results indicate that the indium loss occurs in selenization process because of volatile In2Se arising. The indium loss is less in selenization process of Cu-In precursors contained CuIn, Cu2In and In phases.
