Two high corrosion resistant super-alloys, alloy 800H and 625, were evaluated for compatibility with molten nitrate salts at 565 °C under air atmosphere since these super-alloys are possible candidates the manufacturing of solar receivers in CSP tower technology. Both alloys tested two different grades to identify how impurities final mixture affect damage. Accordingly, a technical grade salt (...

Nickel is released to the atmosphere by windblown dust, volcanoes, combustion of fuel oil, municipal incineration, and industries involved in nickel refining, steel production, and other nickel alloy production. The form of nickel emitted to the atmosphere is dependent upon the source. Complex nickel oxides, nickel sulfate, and metallic nickel are associated with combustion, incineration, and s...

Friction stir welding (FSW) of titanium alloy was carried out using liquid cooling the FSW tool made heat-resistant nickel superalloy. Cooling superalloy performed by means circulating water inside tool. The joints were characterized microstructures and mechanical strength. strength higher than that base metal.

Superplasticforming (SPF) has become an important manufacturing method for aerospace and fuselage components. The basic reasons for the popularity of this process are reviewed and the compatibilityoffine-grained INCONELB alloy71 8SPF@ to superplasticforming are presented in this paper. The temperature limitations of current aluminum and titanium alloys employed in SPF parts for gas turbine comp...

In this research, comparative study of corrosion resistance of aluminum based alloys and Al-alloys with nickel have been investigated. Several processes are conducted for the AlZn-Mg-Cu alloys and Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-0.5%Ni alloys were homogenized, aged then retrogressed and reaged; also, alloys were homogenized then the extruded thereafter heat treated. Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy and AlZn-Mg-Cu-Ni alloy sample...

t is known that the protective value of zinc is partially a result of its ability to form a protective film when plated on a base metal, such as steel. The zinc is sacrificial and corrodes I preferentially to protectthe steel. Although pure zinc coating provides some degree of protection for the substrate, in a severe corrosion environment, zinc is consumed rapidly. For this reason, it is usual...

in the present study, the corrosion behavior of aisi 347 austenitic stainless steel to astm a335 low alloysteel dissimilar joint was investigated. for this purpose, two filler metals, er309l and ernicr-3, were selected to be used during the gas tungsten arc welding process. to investigate the corrosion behavior of the joints after welding, the specimens were tested in 3.5% sodium chloride solut...

AIM The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of recasting base metal alloy on the metal-ceramic bond strength. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 60 test samples were prepared from new and recast nickel-chromium alloy and divided into six groups. In group A0, test samples were prepared from 100% new alloy. Groups A1, A2, A3, A4, and A5 were prepared from 50% new alloy and 50% casting re...

PURPOSE To compare the debonding/crack initiation strength (D/CIS) of a low-fusing pressable leucite-based glass ceramic (PC) fused to metal to a feldspathic porcelain (FP) fused to metal. MATERIALS & METHODS As per ISO 9693:1999, 40 rectangular metal specimens (25.0 mm x 0.5 mm x 3.0 mm) were prepared. Twenty of the specimens were cast in a base metal nickel-chromium alloy (BA), and 20 were ...

Orthodontic mechanotherapy encompasses the use of several archwires during speci c stages of treatment. Metallic orthodontic appliances consist of bands, arch wires, ligature wires, hooks, tubes, brackets, and springs are daily used in orthodontic practices for the correction of malocclusions in patients ( Oh et al. , 2004 ; Verstrynge et al. , 2006 ; Sabane et al. , 2009 ). One of the most im...
