Original scientific paper The experiment centres on two and three body abrasion in three-phase waste-based composite systems. The composite systems abrasion resistance is defined not only by the physical-mechanical relationships of the separate phases of the composite, but also by the mutual interaction of the phases and on the matrix-filler interface. To describe the composite system abrasion ...

In this paper, the metal matrix composites containing 22 wt % Cr, 2.5 wt % C and 2 to 16  volume percent TiC were processed by solidifying Fe-Cr-Ti-C in which precipitation of titaniumcarbide and chromium carbide occurred. The microstructure and abrasion resistance of in-situ synthesized composites were compared with the unreinforced high chromium white cast iron (HCWCI) containing 22 w. t. % C...

Synopsis: This paper provides the state-of-the-art information on high-calcium, ASTM Class C fly ash use in cement-based construction materials, such as high-performance concrete, ready-mixed concrete, and low-strength flowable concrete. The major topics included are: properties of fly ash, effects of fly ash inclusion on fresh and hardened concrete and controlled low-strength materials (CLSM);...

the enhanced dispersion of organophilic layered silicates improves the mechanical properties of polymer/ silicate composites. in this work, a hybrid filler system consisting of cloisite 15a organoclay (oc) and carbon black (cb) was used to improve the properties of the tire tread compounds. the physical and mechanical properties of compounds were assessed by measurement of their cure properties...
