despite having some useful properties, stainless steels suffer from lack of suitable surface hardness. in this research electroless ni-b-tl coating was used with the aim to increase their surface hardness. the effects of nickel chloride, sodium borohydride, thallium nitrate and ethylendiamin on the chemical composition of coating were studied. to achieve an increase in hardness, the effects of ...

zn-co electrodeposits have attracted interest because of their significantly higher corrosion resistance in comparison with pure zinc. in this research the influence of bath temperature and electrolyte’s co 2+ concentration on the morphology and composition of the zn-co coatings, electrodeposited on an aisi1018 steel substrate from a weakly alkaline glycine solutions, has been studied. sem and ...

In the present study, Thermo-Reactive Deposition method (TRD) in a molten bath was used to form niobium carbide coating on AISI L2 steel. The coating was formed in five different composition of borax (Na2B4O7), boric acid (B2O3), and ferro-niobium. For all of the five compositions of molten bath, niobium carbide coating treatment was carried out at 1173 K, 1273 K, and 1373 K for 2, 4 and 8 hour...

in hot dip galvanizing, several parameters such as chemical composition of coating bath, immersion time and surface roughness of specimens could affect microstructure and properties of coating. in this article, the effect of aluminum content, immersion time and surface roughness on structure and properties of alloy layers have been investigated. specimens of low carbon silicon-free steel with d...

In this work, multifilament, continuous polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fiber tow was solution spun mimicking industrial processing at the small pilot scale (0.5 k tow), while carefully altering the composition of the coagulation bath, in order to determine the effect on the resulting fiber shape, density, orientation, and tensile properties at varying points in the spinning process. Novel here are the...

Abstract: The possibility of vanadium carbide coating formation on AISI L2 steel was studied in molten salt bath containing 33 wt% NaCl- 67 wt% CaCl2. In this research, the effects of time, temperature and bath composition on growing layer thickness were studied. The vanadium carbide coating treatment was performed in the NaCl-CaCl2 bath at 1173, 1273 and 1373 K temperatures for 3, 6, 9 hours a...

The proper condition of hydrolipid mantle and the stratum corneum intercellular matrix determines effective protection against transepidermal water loss (TEWL). Some chemicals, improper use of cosmetics, poor hygiene, old age and some diseases causes disorder in the mentioned structures and leads to TEWL increase. The aim of this study was to obtain the optimal formulation composition of an oil...

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of endurance exercise and half-bath on body composition, cardiorespiratory system, and arterial pulse wave velocity of men with intellectual disabilities. [Subjects and Methods] Twenty-four men with intellectual disabilities, but capable of learning, were randomly assigned to aerobic exercise (N=8), half-bath (N=8), or control (...
