Babbitt is a white silvery alloy that composed of Tin, Lead, Copper and Antimony. This alloy is the most current bearing alloy in industrial applications. The characteristics of this alloy, such as high wearing resistance and low coefficient of friction, have converted it into a bearing cover. The target of this study is investigation on the effects of alloy elements on wearing and micro-struct...

Titanium alloy and stainless steel (SS) had been widely used as dental implant materials because of their affinity with epithelial tissue and connective tissue, and good physical, chemical, biological, mechanical properties and processability. We compared the effects of titanium alloy and SS on macrophage cytokine expression as well as their biocompatibility. Mouse macrophage RAW264.7 cells wer...

Ultrathin 2D metal alloy nanomaterials have great potential applications but their controlled syntheses are limited to few noble metal based systems. Herein Ni x Co1-x alloy nanosheets with ultrathin (sub-3 nm) single-crystalline 2D structure are synthesized through a topochemical reduction method. Moreover, the optimized composition Ni0.6Co0.4 alloy nanosheets array exhibits excellent performa...

the microleakage of cinaally amalgam, manufactured by dr faghihi co. which is a high copper alloy and fine-cut amalgam was evaluated by radioisotope agents. the microleakage of cinaally amalgam was compared with sybraloy amalgam, manufactured by sybron/kerr co. which is a high copper alloy and spherical shape amalgam and is known as a standard amalgam alloy. the results showed that there is no ...

An example of an object model is given in full in three languages: Alloy, a new notation; Z, a formal specification language; and UML, a modelling notation popular in industry. Basic features of Alloy are explained informally, and briefly justified by comparison of the Alloy version to the UML and Z versions.

This paper presents a compiler from expressive, relational specifications to logic programs. Specifically, the compiler translates the Imperative Alloy specification language to Prolog. Imperative Alloy is a declarative, relational specification language based on first-order logic and extended with imperative constructs; Alloy specifications are traditionally not executable. In spite of this th...

The superplasticity of commercially pure titanium alloy at high temperature was studied and the dynamic recrystallization phenomenon of the alloy was investigated by using electron back scattered diffraction. A two-step deformation method was used to increase the ductility of the alloy from 188% to 243%. 2004 Acta Materialia Inc. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

The alloy scattering potential is an important parameter in SiGe alloys since it not only affects the velocity-field characteristics for carrier transport, but also allows increased optical transitions by relaxing k-selection rules. In this letter, we report on the velocity-field measurements for relaxed and coherently strained SiGe alloys. The alloy scattering potential is obtained from a care...

We report that the oxygen binding energy of alloy-core@Pt nanoparticles can be linearly tuned by varying the alloy-core composition. Using this tuning mechanism, we are able to predict optimal compositions for different alloy-core@Pt nanoparticles. Subsequent electrochemical measurements of ORR activities of AuPd@Pt dendrimer-encapsulated nanoparticles (DENs) are in a good agreement with the th...

The electrocatalytic properties for electro-oxidation reactions of shape-controlled Pt-based catalysts have been improved by alloying with 2nd elements. In this study, we demonstrate cubic PtPd alloy nanoparticles synthesized using a thermal decomposition method. The cubic PtPd nanoparticles exhibit a homogeneous distribution of alloy nanostructures in the presence of Pt and Pd metallic phases....
