  • Enhancing hydrophobicity and anti-corrosion properties of Al-6061Aluminum hybrid composites through trace additions of rare earth oxides
    Dinesh Kumar Patel, Vipin Kumar Sharma, Vinod Kumar, Pardeep Kumar, and Dinesh Kumar
    SAGE Publications
    Rare Earth elements (REEs) are known as the “vitamins of chemistry” have widely used in industries including aerospace, marine and electronics. Metals and ceramics are examples of existing durable materials that are typically hydrophilic and need to be modified with other materials to become hydrophobic. This research paper investigates the hydrophobic potential of the family of ceramics known as rare-earths, which belong to the lanthanide series. The distinct electronic structure of rare earths atoms hinders hydrogen bonding when water molecules come in contact with the composites. This results in a hydrophobic hydration structure, wherein the surface oxygen atoms serve as the only hydrogen bonding sites. Moisture can speed up the corrosion process, particularly when combined with oxygen and other impurities. Water has the ability to help electrolytes develop that accelerates aluminum corrosion. Aluminum corrodes more quickly at higher temperatures. Owing to their distinct physicochemical characteristics, rare earth metals have attracted a lot of attention to improve the performance of composites. When Rare Earth Oxides (REOs) are added to composite materials, their hydrophobicity is greatly increased. This is because passive films are formed and the microstructure is altered, which increases the materials’ resistance to corrosion. Apart from these fundamentals of hydrophobicity, corrosion behaviour and challenges are also discussed in this paper.

  • Eggshells Utilisation in Polymer Composites

    Trans Tech Publications, Ltd.
    The outer covering of a hard shelled egg is known as eggshell. These are obtained from various sources like egg stations, chicken hatcheries industries and homes in different weights. It is a kind of waste which is considered not be used anywhere. It can produce hydroxyapatite which is considered most effective component of bone. This can have applications in medical supplements, bone graft substitute, floor tiles and in cements in order to improve strength but here discussion is limited to polymer composite. In composite fabrication egg shell waste is utilized, as it not only enhances the strength of composite but also provides us solution for the proper disposal waste egg shell. This review paper presents the brief insight of utilization of egg shell waste in polymer composite so as to improve its strength. From this review paper it may be concluded that research on tribological behavior of egg shell is less so it can be implemented in different sectors like metal matrix composite etc.

  • Comparative Review of Mechanical Properties of Rice Straw and Rice Husk Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composite
    Dinesh Kumar Patel, Sachin Kumar, Hari Om Sharma, and Shiv Ranjan Kumar
    Trans Tech Publications, Ltd.
    Rice straw and rice husk fibers (RS/RH) reinforced polymer-based composites have theability to conserve wood and petroleum resources. As natural filler, rice straw and rice husk offer asustainable material for the production of polymer-based composites. The application ofbiocomposite limits the burning of straw at the root and may further enhance the socioeconomicstatus of farmers and rural populations. This review mainly focuses on five different weightpercentage of reinforced RS and RH fiber content (5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 25%) in polymercomposites. Nowadays, Epoxy, polyurethane, polyester, PVA, PLA and polyethylene are beingused as matrix material in polymer composites. This paper holds good with understanding themechanical properties, pretreatment methods and offer important insight into potential uses ofpolymer composites with biodegradable reinforce fiber.

  • Investigation of physical, chemical and mechanical behaviour of nano-ZrO<inf>2</inf>-based dental composite

    SAGE Publications
    The incorporation of glass fibre in dental composite improves mechanical properties but doesn’t improves physical and chemical properties. Hence, in this paper, it has attempted to investigate the effect of nano-ZrO2 with varying content (0, 3, 6 and 9 weight percentage) on physical properties (water sorption behaviour, solubility), chemical properties (degree of conversion, polymerization shrinkage) as well as mechanical properties (compressive strength, flexural strength). The finding of the result indicated that polymerization shrinkage was decreased with the addition of nano-ZrO2. However, water sorption indicated varying trends in which it initially increased at 6 wt.% and later decreased at 9 wt.% nano-ZrO2. On the other hand, mechanical properties such as flexural strength and compressive strength were increased by 28.5% and 27.2%, respectively with the addition of 3 wt.% of nano-ZrO2 despite an increase in water sorption at 3 wt.% of nano-ZrO2 by 31%. Therefore, it can be concluded that the hygroscopic compensation due to water sorption in nano-ZrO2-based dental composite relieves the undesirable polymerization shrinkage but on the other side, the extensive amount of water sorption of nano-ZrO2-based dental composite results in degradation, softening, colour instability and decrease in mechanical properties.

    Surface integrity has attracted the attention of researchers for improving the functional performance of engineering products. Improvement in surface finish, one of the important parameters in surface integrity, has been attempted by researchers through different processes. Grinding has been widely used for final machining of components requiring smooth surfaces coupled with precise tolerances. Proper selection of grinding wheel material and grade with grinding parameters can result in an improved surface finish and improved surface characteristics. The present work reports the study of the effect of grinding parameters on surface finish of EN8 steel. Experiments were performed on surface grinding and cylindrical grinding for optimization of grinding process parameters for improved surface finish. Grinding wheel speed, depth of cut, table feed, grinding wheel material and table travel speed for surface grinding operation, and work speed for cylindrical grinding operation were taken as the input parameters with four types of grinding wheels (Al 2 O 3 of grades K and L, and white alumina of grades J and K). The surface roughness was taken as an output parameter for experimentation. The grinding wheel material and grade have been observed to be the most significant variables for both cylindrical grinding and surface grinding. Surface roughness in the case of surface grinding is better compared to that of cylindrical grinding, which can be attributed to vibrations produced in the cylindrical grinding attachment. Surface roughness ( R a ) values of 0.757 µm in cylindrical grinding and 0.66 µm in surface grinding have been achieved.
