The significant presence of hematite allows the application of tuffs to technologies of water purification from As5+, As3+, Cr6+, Cr3+, U6+, Sb5+, and Se4+ oxyanions.In this study, Fe-25Mn-9Al-8Ni-1C-xTi alloy (x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 wt.%) was prepared by vacuum arc melting, and the corresponding microstructure and oxidation behavior at 600 °C were studied. The results show that Fe-25Mn-9Al-8Ni-1C-xTi alloy mainly contains austenite phase, ferrite phase and TiC phase. With Ti content increasing, the austenite phase content decreases, while the contents of ferrite phase and TiC phase increase. The oxidation performance test results show that the addition of Ti element greatly reduces the oxidation weight gain of the alloys at the initial oxidation stage. With the extension of the oxidation time and the further increase of the Ti content, the alloys oxidation weight gain shows a trend of first increasing and then decreasing. When the Ti content is 0.2 wt.%, the oxidation weight gain of this series of alloy reaches the lowest value during the stable oxidation period. Compared with Fe-25Mn-9Al-8Ni-1C alloy, its weight gain per unit area is reduced by 21.1%. Fe-25Mn-9Al-8Ni-1C-xTi alloy oxide layer exhibits a double-layer structure. The outer oxygen layer is mainly loose iron-oxides, while in the inner oxygen layer, the oxides are mainly composed of manganese-oxides and aluminum-oxides, which are relatively dense.Diamonds contain carbon paramagnetic centers (stable carbon radicals) in small concentrations (at the level of ~1 × 1012 spins/mg) that can help in elucidating the structure of the nitrogen atoms' contaminants in the diamond crystal. All diamonds that undergo polishing are exposed to high temperatures, owing to the friction force during the polishing process, which may affect the carbon-centered radicals' concentration and structure. The temperature is increased appreciably; consequently, the black body radiation in the visible range turns orange. During polishing, diamonds emit an orange light (at a wavelength of about 600 nm) that is typical of a black body temperature of 900 °C or higher. Other processes in which color-enhanced diamonds are exposed to high temperatures are thermal treatments or the high-pressure, high-temperature (HPHT) process in which the brown color (resulting from plastic deformation) is bleached. The aim of the study was to examine how thermal treatment and polishing influence the paramagnetic centers in the diamond. For this purpose, four rough diamonds were studied two underwent a polishing process, and the other two were thermally treated at 650 °C and 1000 °C. The diamonds were analyzed pre- and post-treatment by EPR (Electron Paramagnetic resonance), FTIR (Fourier transform infrared, fluorescence, and their visual appearance. The results indicate that the polishing process results in much more than just thermal heating the paramagnetic centers.Glass fibre reinforced polyamide 6 (GFPA6) thermoplastic composites (TPCs) are promising materials with excellent properties, but due to their low surface free energy they are usually difficult to wet, and therefore, possesses poor adhesion properties. μPlasma modification offers potential solutions to this problem through functionalisation of the GFPA6 surface. In this study, the effect of μPlasma on the wetting behaviour of GFPA6 surfaces was investigated. Following single μPlasma treatment scans of GFPA6 samples, a substantial enhancement in wettability was observed. However, the effect of the μPlasma modification was subject to an ageing (hydrophobic recovery) phenomenon, although the enhancement was still partially maintained after 4 weeks. The ageing process was slower when the GFPA6 material was pre-dried and stored in low humidity conditions, thereby demonstrating the importance of the storage environment to the rate of ageing. Orientation of the fibres to the observed contact angle was found to be crucial for obtaining reproducible measurements with lower deviation. The influence of testing liquid, droplet volume and surface texture on the repeatability of the measured contact angle were also investigated.A three series of terpolymers composed of the blocks PTMO (MPTMO = 1000 g/mol) or DLAol (MDLAol = 540 g/mol), PA12 (MPA12 = 2000 g/mol) and xGT (DPxGT = 2) with various chemical compositions of ester block were obtained. The series differ in the chemical structure of the flexible block and weight content of the soft phase. The effect of the number of carbons dividing the terephthalate groups on the synthesis, structure and properties of these elastomers has been investigated. To confirm assumed chemical structure Carbon-13 (13C NMR) and Proton (1H NMR) Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and Fourier-transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) were used. The influence of chemical compositions of ester block on the thermal properties and the phase separation of obtained systems were defined by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Dynamic Mechanical Thermal Analysis (DMTA) and Wide Angle X-ray Scattering (WAXS). The mechanical and elastic properties were evaluated.In this research, the assessment of the impact of natural biopolymer binders on selected mechanical and physical properties of lignocellulosic composites manufactured with different resination (12%, 15%, 20%). Different mechanical and physical properties were determined modulus of rupture, modulus of elasticity, internal bonding strength, thickness swelling, water absorption, contact angle, and density profile. Moreover, thermal properties such as thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry were studied for the polymers. The results showed significant improvement of characterized features of the composites produced using biopolymers. However, the rise of the properties was visible when the binder content raised from 12% to 15%. Further increase of biopolymer binder did not imply a considerable change. The most promising biopolymer within the tested ones seems to be polycaprolactone (PCL).Alkali-activated concrete (AAC) could be a solution to use a cement-less binder and recycled materials for producing concrete reducing the carbon dioxide emission and the demand for raw materials, respectively. In addition to the environmental aspect, AACs can achieve mechanical characteristics higher than those of ordinary Portland concrete (OPC) but also an improvement of the thermal insulation capacity. Despite the positive results available in the scientific literature, the use of AACs in construction practice is still limited mainly due to the absence of codification for the mix design and consequently of specific design rules. In this paper, AAC produced by ground-granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBFS) and silica fume is investigated for the production of structural elements and to discuss the reliability of formulations for evaluating mechanical properties, necessary for structural design. The mechanical strengths (compression strength, tensile strength, flexural strength) are evaluated by experimental tests according to different curing times (7, 14, 28, 90 days) in ambient conditions and the thermal conductivity is measured to understand the effect that the material could have on thermal losses for a sustainable building perspective. The results showed that AAC strengths depend on the curing time and the exposure conditions, and the insulation properties can be improved compared to the traditional Portland cement with the proposed composition.This work shows the preparation of carbon nanospheres with a high superficial nitrogen content (7 wt.%), obtained by a simple hydrothermal method, from pyrocatechol and formaldehyde, around which tungsten nanophases have been formed. One of these nanophases is tungsten carbide, whose electro-catalytic behavior in the ORR has been evaluated together with the presence of nitrogen surface groups. Both current and potential kinetic density values improve considerably with the presence of tungsten, despite the significant nitrogen loss detected during the carbonization treatment. However, the synergetic effect that the WC has with other electro-catalytic metals in this reaction cannot be easily evaluated with the nitrogen in these materials, since both contents vary in opposite ways. Nevertheless, all the prepared materials carried out oxygen electro-reduction by a mixed pathway of two and four electrons, showing remarkable electro-catalytic behavior.In this study, the moving least squares (MLS)-Ritz method, which involves combining the Ritz method with admissible functions established using the MLS approach, was used to predict the vibration frequencies of cracked functionally graded material (FGM) plates under static loading on the basis of the three-dimensional elasticity theory. Sets of crack functions are proposed to enrich a set of polynomial functions for constructing admissible functions that represent displacement and slope discontinuities across a crack and appropriate stress singularity behaviors near a crack front. These crack functions enhance the Ritz method in terms of its ability to identify a crack in a plate. Convergence studies of frequencies and comparisons with published results were conducted to demonstrate the correctness and accuracy of the proposed solutions. DSS Crosslinker manufacturer The proposed approach was also employed for accurately determining the frequencies of cantilevered and simply supported side-cracked rectangular FGM plates and cantilevered internally cracked skewed rhombic FGM plates under uniaxial normal traction. Moreover, the effects of the volume fractions of the FGM constituents, crack configurations, and traction magnitudes on the vibration frequencies of cracked FGM plates were investigated.Nimesulide, salicylic acid and their binary mixtures were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The study of such systems is a promising and viable approach for solving the problem of poor solubility of materials in general and drug systems in particular. All areas of human activity are inextricably linked to materials, and thus, the study presented in the paper and not reported in the literature is very important and provides useful data for those working in various fields. The eutectic mixtures were obtained by mechanosynthesis and by recrystallization from ethanol over the entire 0-1 range of molar fractions. For both situations at the molar fraction of nimesulide 0.5, the mixture has a eutectic that suggests an increase in solubility at this composition. The interactions that take place between the components were determined with the help of the excess thermodynamic functions (GE, SE, µE), which highlight the deviation from the ideality of the considered binary systems.The fabrication of deep microgrooves has become an issue that needs to be addressed with the introduction of difficult-to-cut materials and ever-increasing stringent quality requirements. However, both laser machining and electrochemical machining could not fulfill the requirements of high machining efficiency and precision with good surface quality. In this paper, laser and shaped tube electrochemical milling (Laser-STEM) were initially employed to fabricate microgrooves. The mechanisms of the Laser-STEM process were studied theoretically and experimentally. With the developed experimental setup, the influences of laser power and voltage on the width, depth and bottom surface roughness of the fabricated microgrooves were studied. Results have shown a laser power of less than 6 W could enhance the electrochemical machining rate without forming a deep kerf at the bottom during Laser-STEM. The machining accuracy or localization of electrochemicals could be improved with laser assistance, whilst the laser with a high-power density would deteriorate the surface roughness of the bottom machining area.
