A mixture of original 1CP powder and 10 wt.% pure Cu-powder was prepared 1CP-Cu composite samples were obtained by selective laser melting using different process parameters. Comparison showed that addition Cu halved the porosity percentage material. Distribution Cu-phase in 1CP-matrix can be recognized as uniform all samples. X-ray diffraction presence α-Fe solid solution, iron boride Fe2B, cr...

A novel method that enables single-crystal diffraction data to be obtained from a powder sample is presented. A suspension of LiCoPO(4) microrods was subjected to a frequency-modulated dynamic elliptical magnetic field to align the microrods; the alignment achieved was consolidated by photopolymerization of the suspending UV-curable monomer. The composite thus obtained (referred to as a pseudo ...

This paper highlights the synthesis of a one-dimensional (1D) hierarchical material mesosilica/palygorskite (Pal) composite and evaluates its adsorption performance for anionic dye methyl orange (MO) in comparison with Pal and Mobile crystalline material-41 (MCM-41). The Mesosilica/Pal composite is consisted of mesosilica coated Pal nanorods and prepared through a dual template approach using c...

statement of problem: it is yet unclear whether fiber-reinforced composite posts can enhance the mechanical properties and prevent vertical fractures of teeth under chewing loads. purpose: the purpose of this study was to compare the fracture resistance and failure mode of endodontically treated teeth restored with three different post systems. materials and methods: thirty-six maxillary canine...

A new flow enhancement system is developed for cohesive powders. It is based on the concept of multiple, point source, internal excitations. In this system, a mass of small permanent-magnetic particles are placed in the discharge zone of a hopper, and then an oscillating magnetic field is applied to excite these magnets. A screen is placed at the exit to keep the magnets within the hopper. The ...

The high energy ball milling technique permits production of composite powders suitable for application in thermal spray processes. Different milling systems are compared concerning their potential for production of composite powder feedstock for spraying processes. Hard phase materials like carbides or oxides are incorporated into various metallic matrices including light weight alloys based o...
