This paper focuses on effect of abrasion process on color and reflectance factor changes of dyed woven fabrics containing 100% acrylic chenille yarns in weft and cotton warp yarns. Three fabrics having 12, 14 and 16 weft per centimeter were dyed with three basic dyes in different hues. Four different abrasion levels, i.e. 50,200,400 and 650 were selected to abrade samples. The obtained results ...

Current commercial polymer membranes have shown high performance and durability in water treatment, converting poor quality waters to higher quality suitable for drinking, agriculture and recycling. However, to extend the treatment into more challenging water sources containing abrasive particles, micro and ultrafiltration membranes with enhanced physical durability are highly desirable. This r...

Abstract This paper deals with the study and development of polymer-based adhesive high filling ratio secondary raw materials waste materials. The goal this is to develop mortar highest rate as possible while preserving very physical-mechanical properties, including flexural compressive strength, pull-off bond strength abrasion resistance. High-temperature fly ash, slag packaging glass are used...

River-bed sediments display two universal downstream trends: fining, in which particle size decreases; and rounding, where pebble shapes evolve toward ellipsoids. Rounding is known to result from transport-induced abrasion; however many researchers argue that the contribution of abrasion to downstream fining is negligible. This presents a paradox: downstream shape change indicates substantial a...

In situ abrasion of shingle beach material is a neglected area of study in coastal geomorphology, with reduction in beach volumes normally attributed to longshore and offshore drift. Results from field abrasion experiments conducted on flint shingle beaches on the East Sussex coast, southern England, show that in situ reductions in volume of beach material may be more significant than has been ...

In this study, the synergistic effects of abrasion and corrosion on UNS S30403, S31603 and S32760 stainless steels have been investigated using micro-abrasion test rig. The stainless steel samples have been studied under both pure abrasion (PA) and abrasion–corrosion (AC) conditions imulated by using silicon carbide based slurries in either distilled water or 3.5% sodium chloride solutions. Tes...

A number of devices in MEMS introduce frictional contacts between moving surfaces, resulting in particle generation. In this paper, we explore the nano-scale abrasion characteristics of four materials that are commonly encountered in MEMS devices and packages: aluminum (Al), silicon (Si), Pyrex glass, and glass-mica ceramic (Macor). A commercial scribing tool has been adapted to provide control...
