Barrier layer material deposited on stainless steel substrate has been under investigation. These layers are part of a film-Si module, presently under development at ECN. Low temperature (< 250°C) processing is required in order to avoid impurity diffusion from the stainless steel foil. Novel materials based on nano particles combined with organic/ inorganic polymers and SiOx precipitated from ...

In this work, a galvanostatic method based on the one-dimensional pit electrode technique was developed to identify critical stability product of 316 L stainless steel (SS). The SS in 0.6 M NaCl at 25 °C between 0.8 and 0.9 A m −1 , which confirmed by mass transport modelling potentiodynamic polarization results pit-like solutions. concentration metal cations base 70 82% saturation concentratio...

We investigated the wear characteristics and clinical performance of four different total hip joint articulations in 114 patients. Wear and migration was measured by roentgenstereophotogrammetric analysis at five years or at the last follow-up. The mean annual wear was 0.11 mm for a stainless steel/Enduron articulation, 0.34 mm for stainless steel/Hylamer cup, 0.17 mm for zirconium oxide cerami...

In many cases, due to high surface stress, stress concentration and wear, the metal material starts fail from surface. It is necessary investigate interface evolution characteristics under high-speed collisions for widely used materials. The microstructures strengthening mechanism of Ni balls after with 316 L stainless steel were investigated by a self-designed test system. was found that ultra...

driver (Figure 1), is made from stainless steel and is used to hold a suturing needle during surgical procedures. To maintain a firm grip on the needle, the jaws have textured patterns either etched directly on the stainless steel or on a replaceable tungsten carbide insert, which grips the suture needle more precisely and wears out much slower than stainless steel. Needle holders with tungsten...

Stainless steel has been employed in many engineering applications ranging from pharmaceutical equipment to piping in the nuclear reactors and storage to chemical products. In this attempt, simulation of fatigue crack growth based on experimental results of austenitic stainless steel 304L was presented using AFGROW code when NASGRO mode laws adopted. Double through crack at hole specimen is use...

background: one of the methods used for joining metals together is welding, which can be carried out using different techniques such as electric spot welding. this study evaluated the effect of electric spot welding on the load defl ection rate of stainless steel and chromium-cobalt orthodontic wires. materials and methods: in this experimental-laboratory study, load defl ection rate of 0.016 ×...

Stainless steel-based WC composite layers fabricated by a laser cladding technique, have strong mechanical strength. However, the wear resistance of is not sufficient for use in severe friction and environments, corrosion significantly reduced formation secondary carbides. Low-temperature plasma nitriding carburizing austenitic stainless steels, treated at temperatures less than 450 °C, can pro...

Particulate fouling is a common in heat exchange equipment, it causes tube corrosion and increases flow resistance. the hidden danger of equipment requires high treatment costs. In this paper, novel Ni?P?TiO2 composite coating prepared on 316 stainless steel using electroless plating inhibition characteristics are studied dynamic monitoring experimental system. The results show that thermal res...
