1 - Improvement in fracture toughness and wear resistance of plasma-sprayed chromia coating by addition of YSZ nanoparticles
Seyed Mahdi Hashemi Nader Parvin Zia ValefiIn the present research, wear behavior of Cr2O3-20YSZ (CZ) and Cr2O3 (C) coatings created using atmospheric plasma spray (APS) process was evaluated.

For this purpose, Cr2O3 and YSZ nanopowders were produced after milling for 5h in a high-energy ball mill and subsequently plasma spraying of the agglomerated powders was carried out on 304L substrates. Microstructural characterization of these ceramic coatings was performed using X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) equipped with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and optical microscope. Mechanical tests including adhesive strength, fracture toughness, and micro-hardness were used so as to explain the coatings wear behavior. Sliding wear test was conducted using a ball-on-disk configuration against an alumina counterpart at room temperature. Addition of YSZ particles to the Cr2O3 matrix due to the phase transformation toughening mechanism associated with tetragonal zirconia resulted in an increase in the fracture toughness while decreased the micro-hardness. It was found that the composite coatings had the friction coefficients of the proper order of 0.11-0.15. The CZ composite coating compared to the C coating showed the higher wear resistance so that the weight loss was obtained as 11 and 31 mg, respectively. Observation of the wear tracks of the coatings indicated that the lower wear rate of the CZ coating was attributed to its higher toughness and therefore filling the pores due to the higher plastic deformation of its wear debris.

Samples were hot rolled between 980 to 750 °C up to 50% and quenched in different environments. Microstructure and texture of the samples were studied using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped by electron backscattered diffraction detector (EBSD). Hydrogen induced cracking resistance of the samples were also evaluated using HIC test. Results revealed that, by increasing cooling rate more non-equilibrium phases with finer grain where formed. Grain boundary fraction also increased by increasing cooling rate which led to decrease in HIC resistance. Texture of the samples were also changed due to cooling rate enhancement furthermore texture intensity decreased. {111} // ND fiber intensity decreased due to cooling rate increase which led to decrease in intergranular crack propagation and consequently decrease in HIC resistance.

In MoreIn order to improve the surface properties and the greater use of aluminum and its alloys in various industries, especially aerospace, different coating methods have been introduced. Anodizing and electroless plating are the most widely used methods for this purpose. In this research, the effect of temperature and voltage of anodizing on the surface properties of anodic aluminum oxid (AAO), producred on 2024 aluminum, was investigated. The results showed that with increasing voltage and decreasing temperature, the thickness and roughness of coatings increased. An optimal voltage (45 V) was obtained to achieve the highest hardness at all temperatures. The study of the thickness and hardness of the optimum sample also showed an increase in these two parameters with increasing time. FESEM studies also revealed that by carefully controlling on the anodizing conditions, a structure with regular nano-cells could be obtained. The two step anodizing significantly increased the order of the oxide layer cells. SEM, EDS, and XRD results indicated that the possibility of Ni-P electroless coating applying on anodized aluminum in SLOTONIP 70A solution is well established. To investigate and compare the corrosion behavior of AAO and AAO/Ni-P coatings with aluminum substrate, the polarization method and tafel extrapolation was used. The results indicated that the high corrosion resistance of 2024 aluminum alloy was achieved in the presence of Ni-P electroless coating on anodized alloy. The heat treatment of the samples at different temperatures showed that the highest hardness of the final coating (1185 vickers) would be achieved at 400 °C, and the heat treatment time at this temperature after 75 minutes would not have much effect on the hardness.

X-ray diffraction (XRD) method was used to verify the formation of Z type Ba-hexaferrite phase in the synthesis conditions. Magnetization properties of different compositions were studied by alternative gradient force magnetometery (AGFM). X-ray diffraction (XRD) method was used to confirm the formation of Z-type Ba-hexaferrite phase. The investigations by AGFM showed that the amount of magnetization increased by substituting the desired composition. So that the amount of magnetization (67 emu/g) for an unsubstituted sample will reach its maximum (84 emu/g) for the sample with composition of . In addition, complex permeability and permittivity coefficients of the samples were studied by vector network analyzer (VNA). Using the measured coefficients, reflection loss curves were plotted. The results of the reflection loss (RL) plots showed that, on average, the maximum absorption bandwidth occurred among the samples at a frequency range of 4-8 GHz. The best absorption (the most negative reflectance loss) was observed at -47 dB and at a frequency of 7 GHz for the sample with an index of substitution of x=1.3. Manuscript profile -

The luminol c MoreSynthesis of metal oxide nanoparticles using microorganisms and plants, so-called green synthesis methods, has received a great amount of attention because of its easy and inexpensive synthesis condition with respect to usual chemical and physical methods. The luminol chemiluminescent reaction is among well-known quantitative methods in analytical spectroscopy due to its high sensitivity to presence of catalyst and low background signal. In this study, Fe3O4/SiO2/ZnMn2O4 nanocomposite was prepared by the green method using Aloe Vera extract solution and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). These magnetic nanoparticles were used as a catalyst in the luminol-H2O2 chemiluminescence system. The obtained results indicated that these nanoparticles have good catalytic activity in the chemiluminescence system so that the emission intensity was increased about fourfold in presence of catalyst at 3 second. The recovery of this catalyst was easily performed by an applying external magnetic field. Manuscript profile
