The deposition of well-adhered thin type of coatings is of great importance in manufacturing and is used in numerous applications. Of particular interest in the biomedical sector is the deposition of hydroxyapatite onto titanium. CoBlast is a novel coating technology used mainly in the deposition of ceramics onto this metal. This is achieved by simultaneously blasting a ceramic particulate (the...

Original scientific paper Recycling of all materials should be supported by modern society. Material recycling is one of the most important ways of dealing with waste. One of material recycling possibilities is an inclusion of waste into primary matrices. A suitable ratio and a combination of waste particles influence in a positive way mechanical properties of the material in which they are dis...

In order to improve the finishing efficiency of Magnetic Abrasive Finishing process, we proposed a new MAF process with renewable abrasive particles using compound magnetic fluid circulatory system in this paper. This has circulating that uses conveyor belt renew mixed particles. not only maintains stability but also ensures processing does need be interrupted. study, investigated field distrib...

The Ice abrasive water jet technology uses cryogenically cooled ice particles instead of the mineral used in Abrasive technology. aim is to avoid contamination workpieces with abrasives and reduce environmental impact this are sucked into a high-speed speeds up 600 mxs-1 using Venturi effect. Direct observation process very difficult due extreme operating conditions. We have clearly shown that ...

The present study examined wear characteristics of A356/melon shell ash particulate composites. Dry-sliding the stainless steel ball against specimen disc revealed the abrasive wear behavior of the composites under loads of 2 and 5N. The composite showed lower wear rate of 2.182 × 10-4 mm3/Nm at 20 wt% reinforced material under load of 5N. Results showed that wear rate decreased significantly w...

In this work, real-time coefficient of friction (COF) analysis, in conjunction with a new method for approximating the Sommerfeld Number, is used to determine the extent of normal and shear forces during chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) and to help identify the tribology of the system. A new parameter termed the ‘tribological mechanism indicator’ is defined and extracted from the resulti...

Metal matrix composites reinforced with ceramic particles have become the most attractive material in the research and development of new materials for thermal management applications. In this work, 40-60 vol. % TiCx-TiB₂/Al composites were successfully fabricated by the method of combustion synthesis and hot press consolidation in an Al-Ti-B₄C system. The effect of the TiCx-TiB₂ content on the...
