Despite having some useful properties, stainless steels suffer from lack of suitable surface hardness. In this research electroless Ni-B-Tl coating was used with the aim to increase their surface hardness. The effects of Nickel chloride, Sodium borohydride, Thallium nitrate and Ethylendiamin on the chemical composition of coating were studied. To achieve an increase in hardness, the effects of ...

The boronizing of a tungsten heavy alloy containing Ni and Fe as the major alloying elements were performed in the present study to increase its surface hardening. Pack cementation method was employed as a well-known, successful solid-state process for boronizing. The coating treatment was accomplished at different temperatures of 1000, 1050 and 1100°C for 6 and 9 hours. The formation of tu...

Metal coating, metal materials are of two or more layers. The coating metals are widely used in industry. These sheets or saving performance and cost effective solution or both the user. Performance coating metals according to usage in structural applications, settings thermal expansion of the thermo-mechanical control (thermostat), electrical, magnetic, corrosion resistant, flowering and decor...

In this research work, silica nano-porous thin films were deposited on glass substrates by layer by layer method. The thin films were calcinated at various calcination temperatures (200, 300, 400, and 500 °C). The morphology, surface characteristics, surface roughness and hydrophilic properties of the thin films were investigated by field emission scanning electron microscopy, attenuated total ...

geothermal energy serves as a renewable and clean energy. thanks to its great advantages such as relatively harmless, low costs and environmental friendly, it may be a good substitute for fossil fuels. in the present study, a geothermal survey is conducted in an area prone geothermal ferdows of south khorasan province in eastern iran using etm+ data landsat 7 geo-referenced to topography map in...
