a palladium composite membrane was prepared by electroless plating on oxidized porous stainless steel support (ox-pss). hydrogen permeation flux through this composite membrane was measured in the temperature range of 574-674k and the pressure difference of two sides of membrane up to 90kpa. a simplified resistance model was employed to analyze the permeation behavior of hydrogen through pd/ox-...

This paper presents the multiple response optimization of end milling parameter using grey based taguchi method. Experiments were designed and conducted based on L27 orthogonal array design The milling parameter were spindle speed, depth of cut, feed rate and pressurized coolant jet and the response was surface roughness. EN31, high carbon alloy steel which achieves a high degree of hardness an...

Stainless steel particles (60 μm in mean diameter) cladded with an alumina shell (2 μm thick and manufactured by mechanofusion) were sprayed with an Ar-H2 (53-7 slm) d.c. plasma jet (I = 500 A, P = 28 kW, th = 56 %). Two main types of particles were collected in flight, as close as 50 mm downstream of the nozzle exit: particles with a steel core with pieces of alumina unevenly distributed at t...

Steel corrosion leads to the deterioration of bond between concrete and steel bars. The serviceability and ultimate strength of concrete elements within RC structures are hence affected. Many researchers have studied the bond behavior of corroded steel bars. However, very few studies have investigated the effects of confinements on the degradation of bond strength. The present paper proposed a ...

A recent advance in corrosion-resistance technology overcomes the problem of steel corrosion in CO2enriched environments. At an inhibitor concentration of 10 M, the inhibition efficiency exceeded 98% where the steel corrosion rate is decreased by a factor of at least 100.

There are many industries where austenitic stainless steel needs to be welded specially in power generation industries. Unfortunately the austenitic stainless welding has several fabrication and metallurgical drawbacks when welded by using conventional fusion welding methods, which can often leads to in-service failure. The most pronounced fabrication faults are hot cracks due to inadvertent us...

In this study, the effect of molybdate on the electrochemical behavior and semi-conductive properties of duplex stainless steel 2205 passive film at NaCl solutions was investigated. Cyclic potentiodynamic polarization, impedance spectroscopy, mott-schottky plots and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to study the passive behavior. Polarization curves showed that the corrosion current ...

In this study, two-dimensional finite element modeling was used to study the simultaneous effect of the cell shape and regular cell distribution on the anisotropy of the elastic properties of 316L stainless steel foam. In this way, the uniaxial compressive stress-strain curve was predicted using a geometric model and fully solid 316L stainless steel. The results showed that the elastic tangent ...

UNLABELLED Fixed orthodontic appliances make it difficult to maintain the oral hygiene, resulting in plaque accumulation. Retention of bacterial plaque, represents a risk for white spot lesions and development of periodontal disease. AIM Purpose of this study was to determine in vivo the retention of plaque on three different elastic ligatures, in comparison with stainless steel ligature, to ...

behaviors of stress corrosion cracking (scc)in martensitic stainless steel(aisi 420) and low carbon austenitic stainless steel (aisi 316l) have been compared under different conditions of temperature, environment (mgcl2), and strain rate. the results show that decreasing strain rate has detrimental effect on mechanical properties of both steels, including their strength and ductility. fractogra...
