This study investigates the wear performance of Hybrid composite Aluminium Al 7075 (SiC/Al2O3). The Reinforcements used for preparation are Silicon Carbide (SiC) and Oxide (Al2O3). added in 5%, 10% 15% volume percentage to aluminium alloy preparation. developed composites was analysed using dry sliding test apparatus. effect parameters such as load, distance, velocity on response rate were pred...

Aluminium, the third most abundant element in the earth’s crust, occurs in nature in combination with silicon and oxygen (i.e. as aluminium silicate). When subject to tropical weathering, aluminium silicate may react to form aluminium hydroxide. Rock containing high concentrations of aluminium hydroxide is called bauxite. This rock is the usual starting material for the production of aluminium....

Alumina is one of the most widely used ceramic materials as catalysts, catalyst supports and absorbents, and also wear resistant coating. This study focused on fabricating and characterizing of alumina ceramic nanoparticles fabricated using new and simple sol-gel method. Aluminium oxide (Al2O3) nanoparticles were synthesized by iron (III) nitrate 9-hydrate as precursor. Physicochemical properti...

An analytical band Monte Carlo (AMC) with linear energy band dispersion has been developed to study the electron transport in suspended silicene and silicene on aluminium oxide (Al2O3) substrate. We have calibrated our model against the full band Monte Carlo (FMC) results by matching the velocity-field curve. Using this model, we discover that the collective effects of charge impurity scatterin...

Aluminium oxide (Al2O3), commonly known as alumina, is a widespread naturally occurring compound that has a broad range of industrial applications. Besides its use as a pigment or abrasive, alumina also plays a vital role as catalyst support for desulfurization or hydrogenation reactions. In the latter case, the active phase on the catalyst often consists of nickel metal nanoparticles. The inte...

Alumina (Al2O3) decorated anatase TiO2 nanotubes with ordered mesoporous pore walls (Al2O3/meso-TiO2 nanotubes) are successfully synthesized through vacuum pressure induction technology, and then combined with the thermal decomposition of a mesoporous TiO2 sol precursor, inside the cylindrical nanochannels of an anodic aluminium oxide (AAO) template. The decorated Al2O3 was formed by in situ de...

Thin films of Al2O3 have been deposited on ITO-coated glass substrates by a sol-gel dipcoat process. Aluminium isopropoxide (Al(OC3H7)3) was used as the Al source material. X-ray diffraction measurements show that these films are amorphous. Scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy images of the films have revealed a relatively flat surface with no cracks. The dielectric properti...

nano-sized γ-al2o3 was synthesized successfully by a simple method using al2(so4)3·18h2o as aluminium source and in the presence of polyethylene glycol (peg 2000). ftir spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscope (sem) and transmission electron microscope (tem) were used to characterize the structure and morphology of synthesized powder. the results showed that peg playe...
