Composite Coating of Nickel/Tungsten Alloy and Acetylene Black Particle

Synthesis and Characterization of Nano-Hydroxyapatite/mPEG-b-PCL Composite Coating on Nitinol Alloy

In this study the bioactivity of hydroxyapatite/poly(ε-caprolactone)–poly(ethylene glycol) bilayer coatings on Nitinol superelastic alloy was investigated. The surface of Nitinol alloy was activated by a thermo-chemical treatment and hydroxyapatite coating was electrodeposited on the alloy, followed by applying the polymer coating. The surface morphology of coatings was studied using FE-SEM and...

Influence of electroplating parameters on microstructure and amount of ceramic particle deposition in Ni-Co-CeO2-ZrO2 composite coating

Austenitic stainless steels are high performance steels that have various applications in solid oxide fuel cells and boiler tubes under high temperature operating conditions. The Cr2O3 oxide layer formed on the steel surface becomes unstable at high temperatures and reduces the oxidation resistance of the steel. Therefore, protection of these steels at high temperatures is essential. Therefore,...

Few-Layered MoS2/Acetylene Black Composite as an Efficient Anode Material for Lithium-Ion Batteries

Novel MoS2/acetylene black (AB) composite was developed using a single-step hydrothermal method. A systematic characterization revealed a few-layered, ultrathin MoS2 grown on the surface of AB. The inclusion of AB was found to increase the capacity of the composite and achieve discharging capacity of 1813 mAhg-1.

Mechanical Coating Technique for Composite Films and Composite Photocatalyst Films

Hardness and Tensile Strength Study on Al356 Alloy Matrix-nano Al2o3 Particle Reiforced Composite

Additions of high modulus nano particles to Aluminum alloys offer the potential to develop a lightweight composite with high mechanical properties. It is extremely difficult to disperse nano-sized ceramic particles uniformly in molten metal. In order to investigate the effect of nano-alumina on the microstructure and mechanical properties of composite, a new method was used in stir casting to a...
