A corrosion-inhibiting mixture of compounds has been developed for addition to the water used to rinse metal parts that have been cleaned with aqueous solutions in preparation for adhesive bonding of the metals to rubber and rubberlike materials. Prior to the development of this corrosion inhibitor, the parts (made, variously, of D6AC steel and 7075-T73 aluminum) were rinsed by deionized water,...

in this research, the effect of 2.3 wt.% aluminum addition on the microstructure and tensile properties of high manganese austenitic steel fe-18mn-0.6c was studied. for this purpose, the samples were investment cast, homogenized and hot rolled. tensile testing was carried out at ambient temperature. microstructural investigations and fractography on the steel samples were carried out using an o...

Hydroxyapatite coatings have been used on metallic substrates in a variety of applications, including modifying the surface of human implants, bone osseointegration and biological fixation. In this paper, the effects of various kinds of metallic substrate on clinical and pathological results of in vivo tests are presented. Four kinds of endodontic implants i.e, stainless steel, cobalt base all...

BACKGROUND The objective of the study was to determine the sites of plaque accumulation and to compare the plaque accumulated with metal and self-ligating orthodontic brackets in order to know which bracket type had a higher plaque retaining capacity. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study was done on 20 subjects who were scheduled for orthodontic treatment including extraction of four premolars and...

Thick (>50μm) piezoelectric ceramic films have been deposited directly onto metal substrates as integrated ultrasonic transducer (IUT) receivers to detect the laser generated ultrasound. The film fabrication is based on a sol-gel spray technique. In this investigation IUTs intrinsically acting as bulk longitudinal wave receivers use various mode conversion approaches and serve as longitudinal, ...

Predictions of diametral errors in turning often assume that these errors are solely due to bending of the workpiece and tool. However, recent studies indicate that this cannot explain observed diametral errors in short workpieces. This paper presents an empirical study of the effect of cutting parameters and workpiece materia l on diametral errors. Steel and aluminum samples were machined at d...
