REFLECTIVITY OF ANODISED AL-SI ALLOY SURFACE OF BELT PULLEYS USED IN COMBUSTION ENGINES [PDF]
The recent trend of using aluminium alloys instead of steel has reached the transportation industry, where increasingly, more parts are made of aluminium. An example is the belt pulley, applied for combustion engines for energy transmission.

Atomic Diffusion in the Surface State of Mott Insulator NiS2 [PDF]
We present resistivity measurements of Mott insulator NiS2 single crystals after heat treatment. We find a strong increase of the low temperature resistivity that relaxes back towards the pristine behaviour over several days with a time constant of 45 h ...

Lithography-Free Route to Hierarchical Structuring of High-chi Block Copolymers on a Gradient Patterned Surface [PDF]
A chemically defined patterned surface was created via a combined process of controlled evaporative self-assembly of concentric polymer stripes and the selective surface modification of polymer brush.

Influence of Abrasive Blasting and Hot Pressing Preparation on the Pinus taeda Wood Surface [PDF]
Metal particles are used in abrasive blasting to provide cleaning, new shapes, or fatigue resistance to surfaces, depending on the format of these particles. However, these particulates constitute large amounts of waste with no proper treatment.

Introduction of functional groups on polyethylene surfaces by a carbon dioxide plasma treatment [PDF]
Poly(ethylene) (PE) films were treated with a carbon dioxide (CO2) plasma to study the formation of oxygen-containing functional groups at the surface. Modified and nonmodified films were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and water ...

Amorphous Thermal Spray Coating with Hard Materials Exhibiting Cleavage Fracture
Hard materials were mixed with alloy powders and thermally sprayed at an ultra rapid cooling rate of more than 106°C/s. For example, 65Ni15Cr16P4B at% alloy powder containing tungsten carbide was thermally sprayed.

NiOx electrochemical sensor fabricated via electrodeposition and spin‐coating
NiOx thin films were prepared on an Au substrate using the electrodeposition (ED), spin‐coating (SP), and ED after SP (SP/ED) techniques to realize their application as an electrochemical sensor for the selective detection of trace substances.
