in this paper, the hydrogen embrittlement of the high strength cr-si spring steel with after zn-12%ni electroplating, have been evaluated. slow strain rate test with 3.34 × 10 -6 sec -1 strain rate was performed, and the hydrogen embrittlement index of the different samples was calculated. the effect of shot peening before plating and the baking after plating and also the effect of applying a n...

An occupational hygiene survey was made in 38 nickel plating shops in Finland and exposure to nickel was studied by means of biological measurements and, in three shops, by using air measurements. The average after-shift urinary nickel concentration of 163 workers was 0.16 mumol l.-1 (range 0.001-4.99 mumol l.-1). After the 1-5 week vacation the urinary nickel concentration was higher than the ...

A need t o find a suitable replacement for cadmium electroplated coatings on mediumto highstrength steels has accelerated the development of economically viable alternatives. This edited version of a presentation at the 30th annual AerospaceIAirline Plating & Metal Finishing Forum examines the development of Australia's Defence Science and Technology Organisation's (DSTO) zinc-nickel electropla...

To improve the electromagnetic characteristics of conductive nano fillers, carbon nanofibers (CNFs) with nickel-phosphorous (Ni-P) and nickeliron (Ni-Fe) have been fabricated by the electroless plating process. Observations by the electron microscopy (SEM/TEM) and element analyzer (EDS/ELLS) showed the uniform Ni-P and Ni-Fe coated CNFs. The compositions of the plating layers were about Ni-6wt%...

lectroless nickel plating is a relaE. hvely new technological process. The first laboratory experiments were done in 1944 by A. Brenner and G. Riddelll during World War 11. Public announcements were made a few years later. This work bad been done without knowledge of the earlier observations by Roux in 1916* and by Wurtz3 in 1845. The early work was not successful due to poor quality reagents a...

a column of alumina modified with sodium dodecyl sulfate (sds) and dimethylglyoxime (dmg) was prepared for the preconcentration of trace nickel from water samples for flame atomic absorption spectrometry (faas) determinations. under optimized conditions (ph=7.0; flow rate: 20 mlmin-1) nickel was retained on the column. the nickel collected on the column was eluted with 5 ml of 1 m nitric acid. ...

A 3-dimensional porous material prepared by transferring a sponge structure of biomineral is coated nickel via aqueous electroless plating.
