Zn, Al and Zn/15Al coatings can be produced in optimum conditions by the twin wire arc (TWEA) spraying technique. The coatings are used for corrosion protection in a variety of industrial applications. In this study, the ...

In this study, some properties of borided perlitic ductile irons were investigated. Boronizing was realized in a salt bath and appropriate boronizing heat treatment was carried out between under atmospheric pressure. Borides ...

Aim: To emphasize the significance of mushroom poisonings in terms of their wide clinical spectrum and potentially lethal feature. Material and Method: In this retrospective study 135 cases of mushroom poisoning admitted ...

GGG-50, GGG-60 and GGG-80 ductile cast irons containing 0.01, 0.3 and 0.98 wt% copper, respectively, were boronized in a salt bath and then analyzed using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction ...

In this study, fracture toughness properties of boronized ductile iron were investigated. Boronizing was realized in a salt bath consisting of borax, boric acid and ferro-silicon. Boronizing heat treatment was carried out ...

In this study,, the authors investigated the friction and wear performance of a high-speed steel (AISI T1 grade) and an Si3N4 ceramic under boundary lubricated sliding conditions. Moreover, the effects of hardness, carbide ...

Plasma spraying, originally a surfacing technology used for ceramic coating of metal and non-metal substrates, is also suitable for the production of bulk ceramics, such as pipes, crucibles and sensors, etc. from various ...

In several countries, Zn and Zn/Al 85/15 coatings applied by thermal spray are used to protect underground ductile iron (DI) pipe against soil corrosion. In this study, DI pipe samples were coated with Zn and Zn/Al 85/15. ...

Wear measurements are notoriously variable. Even the experiments with the same type of material and test machine can give significantly different results. Such discrepancies are mostly due to a lack of adequate control of ...
