Graphite: its formation and manufacture

Graphite Phase Formation in Al Alloyed Ductile Irons

The influence of aluminum, within the range of 0.08 - 6.16 wt.%, on the microstructure and hardness of as-cast ductile cast iron has been studied. A number of irons of different composition have been made by green sand casting and gravity die casting of appropriate design to provide the experimental materials. It has been found that Al addition and higher cooling rates in permanent mould castin...

simulation and experimental studies for prediction mineral scale formation in oil field during mixing of injection and formation water

abstract: mineral scaling in oil and gas production equipment is one of the most important problem that occurs while water injection and it has been recognized to be a major operational problem. the incompatibility between injected and formation waters may result in inorganic scale precipitation in the equipment and reservoir and then reduction of oil production rate and water injection rate. ...

Formation of dislocation dipoles in irradiated graphite

Recently, we have proposed a dislocation dipole accumulation model to explain the irradiation-induced amorphization of graphite. However, the structure of dislocation dipole in the hexagonal networks is still an open question at the atomic-level. In this paper, we propose a possible formation process of the dislocation dipole. © 2001 Elsevier Science. All rights reserved

Formation and Erosion of Wc under W Irradiation of Graphite

The bombardment of C with 100 keV and 1 MeV W at normal incidence is studied as a function of the incident W fluence experimentally and by computer simulation with the program TRIDYN. Calculated oscillations in the amount of retained W and in the target weight change are confirmed experimentally for 100 keV at room temperature. XPS investigations show W2C formation during ion implantation alrea...
