Boron doped diamond thin films were grown on titanium alloy substrates (Ti6Al4V) with 36 × 35 × 1.3 mm at 873-933 K at 6.5 × 10³ Pa during 8 h by hot filament CVD assisted technique. The boron source was obtained from a H2 line forced to pass through a bubbler containing B2O3 dissolved in methanol (B\C = 6000 ppm). Th…

Chromate coatings on Zn or Zn alloy coated steel sheets often include silica for the aim to improve corrosion resistance. In the case of dry-in-place chromate coatings containing acrylic resin (hereafter referred to as an organic–inorganic composite coating), an addition of silica, however, did not show an improvement…

The electric and dielectric properties of Bi3Zn2Sb3O14 ceramic were studied by impedance spectroscopy. The measurements were performed in the frequency range 5 to 13 MHz and at temperature ranges from 25 to 700 degreesC. The permittivity was calculated by the variation of the imaginary part of the impedance (-Im(Z)) a…

Polarized light microscopy was used to investigate the presence of preferred molecular orientation in the LCP phase of PPS/LCP blends after injection moulding. Normal birefringence effects appeared to be complicated by artifacts due to sample preparation and by the complex nature of polarized light transmission throug…

Single-wall carbon nanotubes were produced with, either, a bimetallic or a mixture of three catalysts. Raman scattering and high resolution transmission electron microscopy were used as characterization tools. The mixture LiNi0.5Co0.5O2 leaded to a sample relatively free from impurities with long bundles, each contain…

A mathematical pultrusion model of a thermosetting matrix composite is presented. The energy balance was solved by Finite Elements techniques using a program developed for this purpose. This model is applied to describe the temperature and resin conversion profiles along the die. This study was developed considering d…

The optical bandgap energies (OBGE) of 3C, 15R, 6H and 4H-SiC have been investigate experimentally by transmission and photoacoustic spectroscopies. The measurements were performed on 470 mum thick wafers. The OBGE obtained from both spectroscopies for different polytypes show very good agreement. In order to have a b…

New processes for the preparation of nanostructure on glass surfaces have been developed through anodic oxidation of sputtered aluminum. Aluminum thin film sputtered on a tin doped indium oxide (ITO) thin film on a glass surface was converted into alumina by anodic oxidation. The anodic alumina gave nanometer size por…

A Mg-9wt.Al-1wt.%Zn-alloy was anodized up to 90 V with constant current/constant voltage in an electrolyte which contained the compounds of the HAE-process (KOH, Al(OH)3, KF, Na3PO4 and KMnO4). Electron microscopic examinations revealed a highly porous and irregular film structure. The distribution of the elements in…

Carbon fibers are widely used in many industrial applications due the fact of their excellent properties. Carbonaceous mesophases are liquid crystalline precursor materials that can be spun into high performance carbon fibers using the melt spinning process, which is a flow cascade consisting of pressure driven flow-c…

In this research work the influence of composition and curing conditions in bending strength of polyester and epoxy concrete is analyzed. Various mixtures of resin and aggregates were considered in view of an optimal combination. The Taguchi methodology was applied in order to reduce the number of tests, and in order…

Temperature dependence of photoconductivity has been investigated for single-wall carbon nanotube films at 0.7 eV. In order to clarify the effect of atmosphere on photoconductivity, measurements have been performed under helium and nitrogen gas flow in the temperature range from 10 K to room temperature (RT) and from…

In the last decades the cement industry has used, as a partial substitute for traditional fuel, different industrial wastes in order to profit their residuals energy. In the present work the physicochemical characteristics of clinker, obtained using trade marked alternative fuel for clinker kiln, were evaluated. X-ray…

In this work we study the influence of oxygen addition to several halocarbon-hydrogen gas systems. Diamond growth have been performed in a high power density MWCVD reactor built in our laboratory. The growth experiments are monitored by argon actinometry as a reference to plasma temperature and atomic hydrogen product…

When welded joints have to meet particular requirements related to fatigue life they are usually designed using the so called S-N design curves. This implies the construction of a curve for each particular design. From the point of view of the user, it is often difficult to establish accurately which is the curve that…

An investigation was made into the synthesis and magnetic properties of Sm(3-x)Ho xFe5O12 (samarium-holmium-iron) garnet ferrite, as yet absent from the literature. The material in question was synthesized by co-precipitation, starting from hydrated chlorides of rare-earth elements and ferrous sulfate, and the mixed h…
