Effects of carbon nanotubes (CNT) addition on mechanical properties, electric conductivity and oxidation resistance of CNT/Al2O3-TiC composite were investigated. It was found that flexural strength, Young’s modulus and fracture toughness of the composites were improved by addition of more than 2 vol%-CNT. In the composites with more than 3 vol%-CNT, the oxidation resistance of the composite was degraded. In comparison with Al2O3-26vol%TiC sample as TiC particle-percolated sample, the Al2O3-12vol%TiC-3vol%CNT sample, which is not TiC particle-percolated sample, shows almost the same mechanical properties and electric conductivity, and also shows thinner oxidized region after oxidation at 1200°C due to less TiC in the composite.

Abstract Integrated zonal isolation is well-known as a key parameter for safe drilling operation and well completion of oil and gas wells. An extensive research on alternative materials has been conducted in the past concerning primary cementing, overcoming annular leaks, and permanent well abandonment. The present article focuses on geopolymers, expansive cement, pozzolan based sealant and thermosetting resins. The viscous behavior and the pumpability of the different materials have been investigated and benchmarked with the properties of neat class G Portland cement. The current study includes short-term mechanical properties of the above-mentioned materials. These properties include compressive strength development, Young’s modulus, indirect tensile strength, and sonic strength. The tests are performed in accordance with API 10B-2 and ASTM D3967-16 for all the materials for 1, 3, 5, and 7-day of curing at 90°C and elevated (172 bar) and atmospheric pressures. Our results show a mixed behavior from the materials. According to uniaxial compressive test results, all the candidate barrier materials developed strength during the considered period; however, the geopolymer and pozzolanic-based mixture did not develop early strength. The expansive cement showed an acceptable early compressive strength, but strength reduction was noticed after some time. The strength reduction of expansive cement was also observed for the indirect tensile strength. All the materials become stiffer overtime as they made more strength. For the neat class G cement and expansive cement, the Young’s modulus showed a minimum after 5 days, but it was increased.

A novel transparent polycrystalline silicon nitride was fabricated by hot-press sintering with MgO and AlN as additives. The mixed powder with 3 wt.% MgO and 9 wt.% AlN was sintered at 1900oC for 1 hour under 30 MPa pressure in a nitrogen gas atmosphere. Transparent polycrystalline silicon nitride was successfully fabricated. The mechanical properties such as density, hardness, young’s modulus, fracture strength and fracture toughness were evaluated. The effect of α/β phase on the mechanical properties of transparent polycrystalline silicon nitride was investigated. The properties were changed depending on the amount of α/β phase. The hardness and Young's modulus increased with increasing the volume fraction of α-phase fraction as a reflection of the higher hardness of α-phase Si3N4. The fracture toughness and fracture strength decreased with decreasing the volume fraction of β-phase Si3N4.

Zirconia Toughened Alumina

The effect of doping small amounts of Magnesium Oxide ranging between 0 to 1 vol% on Zirconia Toughened Alumina (ZTA) composites which is one of main biomaterial used for production of total hip arthroplasty were investigated. The samples were produced via conventional two-stage sintering with T1 varies between 1450°C and 1550°C with heating rate of 20°C/min. The samples were then rapid cooled to T2 set at 1400°C with holding time of 12 hours. The microstructural and mechanical properties of the two-stage sintered ZTA are then investigated to determine the feasibility of MgO addition. Combination of two-stage sintering at T1 above 1500 and also small amount of MgO up to 0.5 vol% were shown to have positive effect on ZTA which exhibited improvement on its grain size, mechanical properties such as Vickers hardness, Young’s modulus and fracture toughness compared to undoped ZTA composites. The sample with 0.5 vol% MgO addition sintered at T1 of 1500°C and T2 1400°C was able to achieve Vickers hardness of 19.6 GPa, Young’s modulus of 408 GPa and fracture toughness of 6.8 MPam1/2 without significant grain growth compared to undoped ZTA composites.

Mechanical And Tribological Properties

AbstractHydrogenated diamond like Carbon (H-DLC) is a promising lubricious coating that attracted a great deal of interest in recent years mainly because of its outstanding tribological properties. In this study, the nano-mechanical and -tribological properties of a range of H-DLC films were investigated. Specifically, four kinds of H-DLC coatings were produced on Si substrates in pure acetylene, pure methane, 25% methane + 75% hydrogen, 50% methane + 50% hydrogen discharge plasmas using a plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PECVD) system. Nano indentation was performed to measure the mechanical properties such as hardness and young's modulus and nanoscartching was performed to investigate the frictional behavior and wear mechanism of the H-DLC samples in open air. Moreover, Vickers indentation method was utilized to assess the fracture toughness of the samples. The results revealed that there is a strong correlation between the mechanical properties (hardness, young's modulus, fracture toughness) and the friction coefficient of DLC coatings and the source gas chemistry. Lower hydrogen to carbon ratio in source gas leads to higher hardness, young's modulus, fracture toughness and lower friction coefficient. Furthermore, lower wear volume of the coated materials was observed when the friction coefficient was lower. It was also confirmed that lower hydrogen content of the DLC coating leads to higher wear resistance under nanoscratch conditions.

Zirconia Toughened Alumina

The microstructure and mechanical properties of Zirconia Toughened Alumina (ZTA) produced via two-stage sintering at various sintering temperature of T1 and T2 in addition to effect of various holding time were investigated. T1 temperature was set between the range of 1400°C to 1500°C with a heating rate of 20°C/min. The samples were then sintered at T2 ranging from 1350°C to 1400°C followed by various holding time between 2 hours to 12 hours. The sintered samples’ microstructural properties, bulk density, hardness (Vickers hardness), elastic modulus (Young’s modulus) and fracture toughness (K1C) were then determined. Compared to standard holding time of two-stage sintering which is 12 hours, results show that ZTA produced via two-stage sintering with shorter holding time of 4 hours with T1 set at 1500°C and T2 of 1450°C are capable of achieving full densification. In addition, the same sample were also able to achieve hardness up to 19 GPa, Young’s modulus of 390 GPa and fracture toughness of 6.1 MPam1/2. The improvement in mechanical properties can be mainly attributed to the absent of surface diffusion at T2 above 1400°C and also presence of Y-TZP which contributed to lower grain growth due to the pinning effect.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to fabricate cellular Ti6Al4V with carbon nanotube (CNT)-like structures by selective electron beam melting and study the resultant mechanical properties based on each respective geometry to provide fundamental information for optimizing molecular architectures and predicting the mechanical properties of cellular solids. Design/methodology/approach – Cellular Ti6Al4V with CNT-like zigzag and armchair structures are fabricated by selected electron beam melting. The microstructures and mechanical properties of these samples are evaluated utilizing scanning electron microscopy, synchrotron radiation X-ray and compressive tests. Findings – The mechanical properties of the cellular solids depend on the geometry of strut architectures. The armchair-structured Ti6Al4V samples exhibit Young’s modulus from 501.10 to 707.60 MPa and compressive strength from 8.73 to 13.45 MPa. The zigzag structured samples demonstrate Young’s modulus from 548.19 to 829.58 MPa and compressive strength from 9.32 to 16.21 MPa. The results suggest that the zigzag structure of the Ti6Al4V cellular solids can achieve improved mechanical properties and the mechanism for the enhanced mechanical properties in the zigzag structures was revealed. Originality/value – The results provide an innovative example for modulating the mechanical properties of cellular titanium by adjusting the unit cell geometry. The Ti6Al4V cellular solids with single-walled CNT-like structures could be used as light-weight construction components or filters in industries. The Ti6Al4V with multiwalled CNT-like structures could be used as new scaffolds for biomedical applications.

This paper discusses the dependence of the mechanical properties and microstructure of sintered hydroxyapatite (HA) on the sintering temperature and pressure. A set of specimens was prepared from as-received HA powder and sintered by using a spark plasma sintering (SPS) process. The sintering pressures were set at 22.3MPa, 44.6MPa, and 66.9MPa, and sintering was performed in the temperature range from 800°Cto1000°C at each pressure. Mechanisms underlying the interrelated temperature-mechanical and pressure-mechanical properties of dense HA were investigated. The effects of temperature and pressure on the flexural strength, Young’s modulus, fracture toughness, relative density, activation energy, phase stability, and microstructure were assessed. The relative density and grain size increased with an increase in the temperature. The flexural strength and Young’s modulus increased with an increase in the temperature, giving maximum values of 131.5MPa and 75.6GPa, respectively, at a critical temperature of 950°C and 44.6MPa, and the fracture toughness was 1.4MPam1∕2 at 1000°C at 44.6MPa. Increasing the sintering pressure led to acceleration of the densification of HA.

Homogeneous phosphate glasses having the general formula 20K2O-xMnO-(80-x)P2O5 were synthesized using a melt-quenching method. The amorphous nature of the samples was asserted by X–ray diffraction. The glasses are studied in order to evaluate the influence of MnO addition on the chemical and mechanical properties, such as, dissolution rate, average compressive strength (Rc), Young’s modulus (E) and limit strain (εlim). Some studies show that the addition of MnO significantly reduces the degradation rate (DR) of soluble phosphate glasses and enhanced chemical stability of both alkali-resistance and acid-resistance. MnO interfere with the chemical structure of the glass, and consequently improve their mechanical properties. Indeed, the mechanical measurements showed that the glass structure was modified by the addition of MnO oxide, becoming more rigid, and as a result, increasing the compressive strength (Rc), Young’s modulus (E). These new materials could be an important opportunity for applications in the fields of building, construction, civil engineering, etc…

ABSTRACTMechanical properties of YSZ doped with Np oxide were studied to investigate the sufficiency to be a waste form for immobilisation of highly concentrated TRU. The study was conducted focusing on Vickers (HV) and Knoop (HK) hardness, Young's modulus (E) and fracture toughness (KIC). The results showed that YSZ is harder and more resistant to elastic deformation and crack development than such waste forms as borosilicate glass and synroc. The effects of porosity and Np content on HV, HK, E and KIC are also discussed.
