Effect of Ti content on the microstructure and mechanical properties of laser clad Ti/B4C/dr40-based composite coatings on shaft parts surface

As a transmission part, the service life of the shaft parts directly affects the machining efficiency and economic benefit, and requires higher surface hardness and wear resistance. In this study, the Ti/B₄C/dr40 composite powder was cladded on the shaft part surface via laser cladding to improve the microhardness and wear resistance. The microstructure evolution and phase structure were analyzed to reveal the strengthening mechanism of Ti and B₄C on dr40 coating. The Ti/B₄C/dr40 composite coating with low defects and good interface metallurgical bonding quality between coating and substrate was prepared on the 45# steel shaft part. The results show that the main phase in the Ti/B₄C/dr40 composite coating is TiC, TiB₂, Cr₂C₃, (Ti, Cr) C, (Ti, Cr, Fe, Ni) (C, B). With the addition content of Ti increasing, the grain densifies, the sieve-reticular structure and small strip phase at grain boundary and intergranular area change as massive phase. Moreover, the microhardness improves up to 2.05 times than that of dr40 coating. The in-situ synthesis of carbides and borides are evenly distributed in the coating, which improves the deformation resistance of the coating. In addition, the precipitation and solid solution strengthening caused by reinforcement phase also enhanced matrix strength for supporting reinforcement phases, improving the coating wear resistance.     

Multi-breath dry powder inhaler for delivery of cohesive powders in the treatment of bronchiectasis

A series of co-engineered macrolide–mannitol particles were successfully prepared using azithromycin (AZ) as a model drug. The formulation was designed to target local inflammation and bacterial colonization, via the macrolide component, while the mannitol acted as mucolytic and taste-masking agent. The engineered particles were evaluated in terms of their physico-chemical properties and aerosol performance when delivered via a novel high-payload dry powder Orbital^? inhaler device that operates via multiple inhalation manoeuvres. All formulations prepared were of suitable size for inhalation drug delivery and contained a mixture of amorphous AZ with crystalline mannitol. A co-spray dried formulation containing 200?mg of 50:50?w/w AZ: mannitol had 57.6%?±?7.6% delivery efficiency with a fine particle fraction (≤6.8?µm) of the emitted aerosol cloud being 80.4%?±?1.1%, with minimal throat deposition (5.3?±?0.9%). Subsequently, it can be concluded that the use of this device in combination with the co-engineered macrolide–mannitol therapy may provide a means of treating bronchiectasis.     

Influence of sol–gel derived ZrO2 and ZrC additions on microstructure and properties of ZrB2 composites

ZrB₂ powder was coated with 5% ZrOC sol–gel precursor and sintered by SPS. Relative densities >98% were achieved at 1800 °C with minimal grain growth and an intergranular phase of ZrC. Carbon content in the precursor determined the type of reinforcing phase and porosity of the sintered composites. XRD, SEM and EDS studies indicated that carbon deficiency resulted in ZrO₂ retention, improving ZrB₂ densification with oxide particle reinforcement. Excess carbon resulted in ZrC formation as the reinforcing phase, but could yield porosity and residual carbon at grain boundaries. These two types of ZrB₂ composites displayed different densification and microstructural evolution that explain their contrasting properties. In the extreme oxidative environment of oxyacetylene ablation, the composites with ZrC-C maintained superior leading edge geometry; whereas for mechanical strength, a bias towards the residual ZrO₂ content was beneficial. This highlighted the sensitivity of processing carbon-precursors in the initial sol–gel process and the carbon content in ZrB₂-based composite systems.
