Development of a Corrosion and Wear Resistant Material

DENKI-SEIKO[ELECTRIC FURNACE STEEL], 2004
For fluid machinery used in seawater, the overlaying technique is an effective means for the resistance to corrosion, erosion and abrasive wear in terms of cost, performance and repair. Therefore, we had attempted to combine the manufacturing technique of anti-wear resistant Co based KV powder and Crevelloy alloy with excellent crevice corrosion ...

Laser Powder Bed Fusion of Alumina: Effects of Scanning Strategies on External and Internal Defects

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates how scanning strategies affect pure alumina in laser powder bed fusion. Linear 45° scanning yields uniform surfaces but high porosity, while the island‐concentric strategy provides higher density with through‐holes favorable for infiltration. Findings highlight pathways toward optimizing defect‐free alumina parts.

Review on wear resistance of laser cladding high-entropy alloy coatings

Journal of Materials Research and Technology
The wear resistance of the part surface has become an important factor affecting its own service life. Laser cladding (LC), as a surface modification technology, can prepare a coating with good metallurgical bonding with the substrate, which can ...

Carboxylic‐Acid Functionalized Multiwalled Carbon Nanotube‐Alkane‐Based Resistive Temperature Sensor for Cold Chain Applications

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a reversible temperature sensor with high switching ratio, ∼103. The device is fabricated using PET‐ITO and carbon nanotube dispersions in alkane. Considering its application in cold chain logistics, a proof‐of‐concept with LED is showcased. Thus, a temperature drop below the threshold temperature (crystallization temperature of the

Characterization of Aluminized Layers on Inconel‐738 Alloy: Microstructure, Modeling of Aluminizing Kinetics, and Thermal Behavior

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study explored how effective nickel aluminide coatings are obtained in providing oxidation resistance applied to the Inconel 738 alloy, modeling with diffusion models. In the present study, kinetics and thermal behavior of the Inconel 738 alloy were studied by the low‐temperature thermoreactive aluminizing process, which was carried out at 625°C ...
