Salt bath nitrocarburizing is a well-known thermochemical diffusion process for enhancing the tribological and corrosion properties
of ferrous components. The current work describes the role of a compound layer developed during nitrocarburizing, both in
the ferritic and austenitic regimes of Fe-N-C system, on the sliding wear behavior of a medium carbon steel. The wear behavior
of the nitrocarburized steel discs was assessed by the pin-on-disc tests (ASTM G 99-99) under different normal loads running
against a hardened SAE52100 pin. It was observed that the compound layer on the surface not only controlled the wear rate
but also resisted the adhesive wear/transfer of material from pin to disc, aside from providing low-friction coefficients. 相似文献

A capillary switch is a system of two liquid drops, one sessile and the other pendant, obtained by overfilling a hole of radius R in a plate. When surface tension dominates gravity, the equilibrium shapes of the drops are spherical sections of equal radii. If the combined volume of the top VT and bottom VB drops exceeds , the system has three equilibrium states of which two are stable. This bistability is exploited in applications by toggling the system between its two stable states. Here, we examine the effectiveness of using an electric field for toggling. Bifurcation diagrams are obtained that depict how the system's response varies with applied field strength E, and show loss of stability at turning points and the possibility of hysteresis. A phase diagram in space is presented to readily infer when an electric field is an effective means for toggling. © 2014 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 60: 1451–1459, 2014 相似文献

BACKROUND: HF formation and poor thermal stability found in commercial lithium ion batteries comprising LiPF6 (and other salts) have hampered the replacement of LiPF6. Therefore, a new kind of electrolyte salt is necessary to replace the one commercially available. RESULTS: A novel lithium difluoro(oxalate)borate (LiDFOB)‐based nanocomposite polymer electrolyte has been prepared in a matrix of poly[(vinylidene fluoride)‐co‐(hexafluoropropylene)] (PVdF‐HFP). The electrolyte contains ethylene carbonate and diethyl carbonate as plasticizers and nanoparticulate Sb2O3 as a filler. Membranes obtained by a solution casting technique were characterized by AC impedance, thermogravimetry and tensile strength measurements and morphological studies. Membranes with 5 wt% Sb2O3 exhibit a room‐temperature conductivity of 0.298 mS cm?1, and are thermally stable up to ca 130 °C. Furthermore, the nanocomposite membranes show a 125% increase in mechanical stability as compared to filler‐free membranes. The structural change from α to β phases was confirmed by Raman studies. CONCLUSION: One of the important advantages of using LiDFOB lies in its bulkier DFOB anion, which also acts as solid plasticizer, thus improving the basic requirements of the electrolyte, such as mechanical and thermal stabilities, as well ionic conductivity and with a lower filler content. The overcharge tolerance of LiDFOB salt at higher temperature is also to be noted, because of the oxalate moieties. Preliminary investigations confirmed the possibility of using Sb2O3 nanoparticle‐filled membranes in industry in the near future. Copyright © 2008 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

The usefulness of the ferritic nitrocarburizing treatment for improving the tribological properties of ferrous components is well established. However, the thin compound layer of beneficial epsilon carbonitride that develops at the surface lacks the ability to bear high Hertzian stresses. Nitrocarburizing in the austenite phase field of the Fe---N---C system overcomes this disadvantage since the formation of a hard zone of martensite-bainite below the compound layer provides the back-up to withstand point loads. Results of the Falex scuffing test indicate that the failure load increases on account of the thicker compound layer at the surface. The results indicate further that the frictional heat generated during the test coupled with working by the jaws convert the retained austenite present in the sub-compound layer to harder microconstituents. The study suggests that the austenitic treatment could be useful for applications involving simultaneous heat and work such as hot working dies. 相似文献

The usefulness of Falex testing in assessing the scuffing resistance of nitrocarburized steel was established by carrying
out tests on treated medium-carbon and hot-working steel specimens. Though the test could be employed as a quality control
measure for the compound layer thickness, it was found inadequate in bringing out the subtle variations in the compound layer
characteristics of specimens of different steels. By a modified form of Falex testing, the heat resisting ability of the compound
layer of different steels could be distinctly brought out. 相似文献

Drilling and fastening of hybrid materials in one-shot operation reduces cycle time of assembly of aerospace structures. One of the most common problems encountered in automatic drilling and riveting of multimaterial is that the continuous chips curl up on the body of the tool. Drilling of carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) is manageable, but when the minute drill hits the aluminium (Al) or titanium (Ti), the hot and continuous chips produced during machining considerably damage the CFRP hole. This study aims to solve this problem by employing nano-coated drills on multimaterial made of CFRP and aluminium alloy. The influence of cutting parameters on the quality of the holes, chip formation and tool wear were also analyzed. Two types of tungsten carbide drills were used for the present study, one with nano-coating and the other, without nano coating. The experimental results indicated that the shape and the size of the chips are strongly influenced by feed rate. The thrust force generated during drilling of the composite plate with coated drills was 10–15% lesser when compared to that generated during drilling with uncoated drills; similarly, the thrust force in the aluminium alloy was 50% lesser with coated drills when compared to thrust force generated without coated drills. Thus, the use of nano-coated drills significantly reduced the surface roughness and thrust force when compared with uncoated tools. 相似文献

A commonly used engineering steel (En8) and a hot working die steel (H11) were salt bath nitrocarburised in the ferritic and austenitic range and studied for their microstructure and tensile properties. Compound layer thickness and hardness increased with increasing treatment temperature. There was a marginal improvement in the tensile strength after ferritic nitrocarburising due to the hardness increase in the compound layer and diffusion zone. There was marginal drop in the tensile properties of specimens treated in the austenitic range, but these values were comparable to those obtained after blank treatment at the same temperature. The tests showed that the compound layer had good cohesion with the underlying zone despite the precipitous hardness drop at their interface. 相似文献

In this work, the flowshop scheduling problem is considered with the objective of minimising the completion-time variance (CTV) of jobs, and an Ant Colony Optimisation (ACO) algorithm is presented. Two implementations of the Modified Ant Colony Optimisation algorithm (MACO-I and MACO-II) are proposed to solve the permutation flowshop scheduling problem. The proposed ant-colony-algorithm implementations have been tested on 90 benchmark flowshop scheduling problems. The solutions yielded by the proposed MACO implementations are compared with various algorithms and with the best CTV of jobs reported in the literature. The proposed MACO implementations are found to perform very well in minimising the chosen performance measure. 相似文献

Leather, footwear, and clothing industries produce significant quantity of chromium containing proteinaceous wastes. One of the major uses of these wastes is to convert them into sheets or boards. However, the previous methods could not provide flexible sheets with desired strength. Here, we describe a simple and efficient method for the preparation of flexible composite sheets using chromium containing collagenous wastes (CS) with the use of cellulose derivatives. The leather wastes have been partially hydrolyzed and converted into composite sheets under microwaves with the addition of 2‐hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) in varying concentrations from 2.5 to 20 wt%. A comprehensive strength as high as 3.14 ± 0.45 MPa with a softness of 3.8 ± 0.2 mm is achieved with the addition of 20 wt% HEC in the CS/HEC composite sheets. Scanning electron microscopic and mercury intrusion porosimetric analysis demonstrate the reduction in pores, especially micro pores (<50 μm), when the concentration of HEC is higher thereby showing improved interfacial adhesion of HEC onto CS. Infrared spectroscopy result indicates the presence of distinctive bands associated with both CS and HEC. There is also a reasonable increase in the thermal stability of the CS/HEC sheets as the content of HEC increases. Hence, the developed CS/HEC composite sheets were found to be flexible and have improved thermo‐mechanical properties, which are suitable for applications in leather product and allied industries.
