fe49co33ni18 nanowire arrays (175 nm in diameter and lengths ranging from 5 to 32μm) were fabricated into nanopores of hard-anodized aluminum oxide templates using pulsed ac electrodeposition technique. hysteresis loop measurements indicated that increasing the length decreases coercivity and squareness values (from 274 oe and 0.58 to200 oe and 0.105, respectively), indicating the increase in m...

We investigated film thickness effects of sulfuric acid anodized aluminum when galvanically coupled with carbon fiber reinforced plastic（CFRP）. The CFRP was electrically to alloys 1050, 5052, 6061, and 7075 in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution at 35 ℃. Galvanic current passing from the 1050 6061 decreased as anodic oxide thickened. For galvanic between 5052 CFRP, elapsed time until corrosion density value...

Externally controlled site specific drug delivery could potentially provide a means of reducing drug related side effects whilst maintaining, or perhaps increasing therapeutic efficiency. The aim of this work was to develop a nanoscale drug carrier, which could be loaded with an anti-cancer drug and be directed by an external magnetic field. Using a single, commercially available monomer and a ...

Wet-chemical etching of the barrier oxide layer of anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) was systematically investigated by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS), and a newly devised experimental setup that allows accurate in situ determination of the pore opening point during chemical etching of the barrier oxide layer. We found that opening of the barrier oxid...

A new pressure measurement technique for measuring the pressure over rotating blades of industrial axial flow fan is described in this paper. The new technique is called pressure sensitive foil (PS-Foil) technique. In this technique a very thin aluminum foil is coated with pressure sensitive paint using anodization method. The resulting PS-Foil can be stick over any existing blade using a very ...

PURPOSE The object of this study was to investigate the effect of UV irradiation (by a general commercial UV sterilizer) on anodized titanium surface. Surface characteristics and cellular responses were compared between anodized titanium discs and UV irradiated anodized titanium discs. MATERIALS AND METHODS TITANIUM DISCS WERE ANODIZED AND DIVIDED INTO THE FOLLOWING GROUPS: Group 1, anodized ...

Compared with pure aluminum and wrought alloys, Al foundry alloys are more difficult to be anodized. The high content of alloying elements prevents the uniform growth oxide layer enhances embedding defects in anodic film. microstructure substrate anodizing parameters play a key role final quality layer. Variations chemical composition, casting process, pre‐ post‐anodizing treatments can signifi...
