in this study, aluminium2024- graphite composites containing 5, 10, 15 and 20 weight percent of graphite were produced by solid assisted melt disintegration (samd) technique which resulted in production of al/gr powder mixtures which subsequently consolidated and sintered for preparation of al/gr composites. in this technique, powder mixture was prepared by addition of flake graphite (mean diam...

in this study, al/gr composites with 5,10,15,20 weight percent of graphite were produced by in-situ powder metallurgy method. the produced powder mixtures were consolidated and sintered at optimum conditions. the resultant composites were solution treated at 495?c and aged at 170?c. the influence of graphite content on the bending strength of composites was studied. the distribution of graphite...

production of fe-c alloy powders by mechanical alloying was studied. fe and graphite elemental powdermixtures containing 0.8 and 1.5wt.% graphite were mechanically alloyed using a planetary ball mill. thestructural changes of powder particles during mechanical alloying were studied by x-ray diffractometery,scanning electron microscopy and microhardness measurements. for both compositions, mecha...

In order to compare and evaluate the atomization process occurring in several types of graphite furnaces for atomic absorption spectrometry, the authors estimated temporal variations in the gas temperature by using a two-line method under the assumption of a Bolzmann distribution. The atomization furnaces employed were a graphite tube, a graphite tube coated with pyrolitic carbon, a graphite tu...

Five spheroidal graphite cast irons were investigated, a usual ferritic grade and four pearlitic alloys containing Cu and doped with Sb, Sn and Ti. These alloys were remelted in a graphite crucible, leading to volatilization of the magnesium added for spheroidization and to carbon saturation of the liquid. The alloys were then cooled down and maintained at a temperature above the eutectic tempe...

In this study, we demonstrate a high-resolution friction profiling technique using synchronous atomic/lateral force microscopy (AFM/LFM). The atomic resolution is achieved by our special carbon nanotube (CNT) probes made via in situ tailoring and manipulation inside an ultra-high vacuum transmission electron microscope (UHV TEM). The frictional pattern mapped on graphite displays a periodic dis...
