A Study on the Mechanical and Tribological Properties of Carbon Fabric/PTFE Composites

Carbon fabric reinforced polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) composites with different PTFE content, viz. 30, 40, 50, 60, and 70 vol%, were fabricated by a dispersion impregnation technique followed by a hot-press process. The composites were evaluated for their mechanical and tribological properties. The tribological tests were conducted on a friction and wear tester with a ring-on-block arrangement. The mechanical properties were also tested and their relationship with tribological properties was analyzed. The worn surface and wear debris were analyzed by a scanning electron microscope (SEM) to study the wear mechanism. It was found that the resin content had a great influence on both the mechanical properties and the tribological properties, and the tribological properties were correlated with the mechanical properties. The composite with 50 vol% PTFE showed promising tribological behaviors under the selected test conditions.     

Powder compaction,sintering, and rolling of ultra high molecular weight polyethylene and its composites

The applicability of powder compaction and sintering techniques to the processing of ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) powder is demonstrated. With proper processing procedure and type of UHMWPE powder, the mechanical properties obtained are nearly equivalent to those obtained by conventional melt processes. The properties were optimized by selection of a sintering temperature just above the melting point and by close control of particle size and distribution. The processability of UHMWPE is dependent on the morphology of the powder. Only those powders with a fibrous morphology provided good mechanical properties after sintering. The mechanical properties of powder compacts can be improved by several techniques. Liquid sintering with added normal molecular weight polyethylene, with close control of particle size and distribution and amount of the second component, yielded improved properties. Composites of UHMWPE, with short glass and graphite fiber reinforcement, processed by powder compaction and sintering resulted in increased modulus. The properties of these composites depended upon the amount of fibers, fiber length, fiber-matrix bonding, and fiber orientation. Rolling the powder-processed UHMWPE oriented the structure and improved the mechanical properties, although it decreased the mechanical properties of the glass and graphite fiber composites because of debonding between fiber and matrix. The properties of carbon black—UHMWPE mixtures were improved by rolling because of a more uniform distribution of carbon black.     

Far-infra-red absorption of non-polar liquids

A new conformal solution theory using a single pure fluid as a reference substance for the calculation of thermodynamic properties of fluid mixtures is developed. The perturbation theory developed by Weeks, Chandler and Andersen (WCA) and by Verlet and Weis (VW) is used to calculate the reference properties. The mean density approximation and corresponding state principle are used to eliminate the higher order terms in the mixture system and to derive the pseudo-parameters for the reference system. The mixture properties are obtained from the reference properties and their corresponding hard sphere excess functions defined as the properties of the mixture less the value of the properties for the hard sphere mixture.

The excess functions of mixing for several liquid mixtures of Lennard-Jones fluids, obeying the Lorentz-Berthelet rule, are calculated by the new method (VW-HSE). Comparison with the results of other theories and Monte Carlo data shows definite improvement. Since only the properties of a pure reference fluid are directly calculated, the method can be applied to more complicated multicomponent systems without additional computational effort as required by other theories.

Creep of FINEMET Ribbons during Crystallization

The application of FINEMET-type materials with specific magnetic properties prepared by the crystallization of amorphous alloys is often limited by their brittleness. The structure of these materials consists of nanosized Fe-based grains surrounded by an amorphous phase. Then the final macroscopic mechanical properties are considerably influenced by the properties of this amorphous phase. Direct creep measurements during the crystallization of FINEMET alloys were performed and the creep properties of the residual amorphous phase formed during the nanocrystallization were described. It was shown that due to relatively high temperatures, the residual amorphous phase undergoes intensive structural relaxation resulting in the obvious embrittlement of these materials.     

Experimental determination of the dynamical properties of molecular crystals under pressure

Abstract

A main characteristic of molecular solids is the large difference between intra- and intermolecular interactions. This difference is reflected in the physical properties, especially in the dynamical properties and their pressure dependence. The three main techniques used to study the dynamical properties of crystals in diamond cells are reviewed, and each one is illustrated by an example which shows specific properties of molecular crystals.     

Coherence properties of the scattered electromagnetic field generated by anisotropic quasi-homogeneous media

The coherence properties of the scattered field generated by linearly polarized and uniformly unpolarized electromagnetic plane waves incident on anisotropic quasi-homogeneous media are studied. The analytical expressions for the spectral density and the spectral degree of coherence of the three dimensional scattered field are derived. The results of the numerical simulations indicate that not only the properties of the anisotropic media have a great effect on the coherence properties of the scattered field, but also the polarization of the incident wave. And most important, the effect of the polarization of the incident wave on the coherence properties of the scattered field nearly concerns the properties of the anisotropic media. There are also close and interesting relations between the coherence properties of the scattered field that generated by the anisotropic media and by the corresponding isotropic media.

Investigation of interface roughness cross-correlation properties of optical thin films from total scattering losses

The interface roughness and interface roughness cross-correlation properties affect the scattering losses of high-quality optical thin films. In this paper, the theoretical models of light scattering induced by surface and interface roughness of optical thin films are concisely presented. Furthermore, influence of interface roughness cross-correlation properties to light scattering is analyzed by total scattering losses. Moreover, single-layer TiO₂ thin film thickness, substrate roughness of K9 glass and ion beam assisted deposition (IBAD) technique effect on interface roughness cross-correlation properties are studied by experiments, respectively. A 17-layer dielectric quarter-wave high reflection multilayer is analyzed by total scattering losses. The results show that the interface roughness cross-correlation properties depend on TiO₂ thin film thickness, substrate roughness and deposition technique. The interface roughness cross-correlation properties decrease with the increase of film thickness or the decrease of substrates roughness. Furthermore, ion beam assisted deposition technique can increase the interface roughness cross-correlation properties of optical thin films. The measured total scattering losses of 17-layer dielectric quarter-wave high reflection multilayer deposited with IBAD indicate that completely correlated interface model can be observed, when substrate roughness is about 2.84 nm.

Prediction of Cassava Starch Edible Film Properties by Chemometric Analysis of Infrared Spectra

Cassava starch has been shown to make transparent and colorless flexible films without any previous chemical treatment. The functional properties of edible films are influenced by starch properties, including chain conformation, molecular bonding, crystallinity, and water content. Fourier‐transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy in combination with attenuated total reflectance (ATR) has been applied for the elucidation of the structure and conformation of carbohydrates. This technique associated with chemometric data processing could indicate the relationship between the structural parameters and the functional properties of cassava starch–based edible films. Successful prediction of the functional properties values of the starch–based films was achieved by partial least squares regression data. The results showed that presence of the hydroxyl group on carbon 6 of the cyclic part of glucose is directly correlated with the functional properties of cassava starch films.     

Role of surface and interface science in chemical vapor deposition diamond technology

Diamond is well known as the hardest material in nature. It also has other unique bulk physical and mechanical properties, such as very high thermal conductivity and broad optical transparency, which enable a number of new applications now that large areas of diamond can be fabricated by the new diamond plasma chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technologies. However, some of the most interesting properties of diamond, including the ability to be grown over large areas by CVD processes, result not from its bulk properties but from its special and unique surface chemistry. The surface chemistry derived properties are as remarkable as the bulk properties, and in the end may enable the development of new applications, technologies, and industries which are at least as important as those based on the bulk properties. Some of these surface properties are extreme chemical inertness, low surface energy, low friction coefficients, negative electron affinity, biological inertness, and high over-voltage electrode behavior. The surface science and some of the interesting ongoing research in these areas are explored and illustrated, and unresolved questions are highlighted.     

The effect of accelerator contents on the vulcanizate structures of SSBR/silica vulcanizates

Physical properties of rubber compounds are affected by the filler–rubber interaction, filler dispersion in the rubber matrix, and cross-link structure formed during vulcanization. In particular, the cross-link structure is closely related to the physical properties of vulcanizates and has been analyzed using the swelling test and Flory-Rehner equation. However, the relationship between the structure and physical properties of vulcanizates cannot be explained by the cross-link density obtained using these methods. The cross-link density obtained from the swelling test is a complex result of the filler–rubber interaction occurring during the compounding as well as the chemical cross-link structure formed by sulfur during the vulcanization. Moreover, the rubber vulcanizates that use silica need to be separately analyzed for each factor as its physical properties are affected more by the filler–rubber interaction than by carbon black. Therefore, this study determines the factors that contribute to the total cross-link density of vulcanizates into chemical cross-link density and filler–rubber interaction via quantitative analysis using the swelling test results and Flory-Rehner and Kraus equations. The vulcanizates used for the analysis were carbon black-filled and silica-filled non-functionalized SSBR compounds with varying cure accelerator for each filler loading. Their chemical cross-link density was measured and the effect of the filler–rubber interactions on their mechanical and dynamic viscoelastic properties was investigated. Furthermore, the relationship between the structure and physical properties of rubber vulcanizates was elucidated.
