Laboratory galling tests of several commercial cobalt-free weld hardfacing alloys

Fracture Toughness Testing and Toughening Mechanisms of Some Commercial Cobalt-Free HardfacingAlloys

Hardfacing alloys are weld deposited to provide a wear resistant surface for stmctural base materials. Commercial low cobalt hardfacing alloys are being evaluated to reduce plant activation levels. Since hardfacing alloys typically must be resistant to cracking to assure adequate in service performance, fracture toughness is a ~ critical material property. Fracture toughness (KJ measurements of...

Weld Procedural Effect on the Performance of Ferrous Based Hardfacing Deposit on Mild Steel Substrate

-Hardfacing is one of the most useful and economic ways to improve the performance of components submitted to severe wear conditions. A study was made to compare the microstructure and abrasion resistance of hardfacing alloys reinforced with primary chromium carbides, the hardfacing alloys were deposited onto M.S. plate by SMAW process. Two different commercial hardfacing electrodes were employ...

Interference in laboratory tests

Interference in clinical laboratory testing can create discrepancies in test results which can lead to patient harm.  In clinical chemistry, interference is defined as a cause of medically significant difference in the measurand test result due to another component or property of the sample. Interference by endogenous and exogenous substances with assays for clinical analytes is a common prob...

Comparison of Several Tests for Combining Several Independent Tests

Mechanical Properties of Electroformed Nickel Cobalt Alloys

Mechanical properties of nickel-cobalt alloys (0-10% Co) electroformed with low internal stress in sulfamate-based solutions were investigated in as deposited and heat treated conditions. It was demonstrated that alloy properties can be modified by selecting deposition conditions and alloy composition. Recommendations on alloy selection are made based on application requirements. The higher str...
