ZnTiCu (zinc-titan) sheets with approximately 0,1% Cu and 0,1% Ti content are very widely used in the construction industry for roof covering, gutters, drain pipes, facing linings, connections, window shelves, decorative elements on roofs, art products, etc. Data on the production technology of zinc-titan alloy sheet and on its forming properties are very scarce and unreliable. Therefore they m...

A maximal product of stiffness and viscoelastic damping (E tan d), a figure of merit for damping layers, is desirable for structural damping applications. Particulate-reinforced metal–matrix composites were prepared by ultrasonic agitation of the melt and composed of the zinc–aluminum (ZnAl) alloy Zn80Al20 (in wt%) as the lossy matrix and SiC or BaTiO3 as the particulate reinforcements. ZnAl–Si...

The bremsstrahlung high-energy cutoff of strontium and yttrium decay processes is determined to be 2306 ± 37 keV. The linear relation of Moseley’s law for X-ray fluorescence is verified using rubidium, molybdenum, silver, barium, and terbium targets. The fluorescent X-ray emission energies of other known targets are also verified to generally within 3 standard errors for under 0.6% relative err...

This study focused on the modelling and experimental investigation of Copper-Zinc alloy using Split-split plot design. The effects process parameters such as percentage by volume material, material type (copper zinc), pressure their interactions mechanical properties produced copper-zinc split-split design was investigated. examined in this include; tensile strength, modulus elasticity, shear h...

Efforts to develop metallic zinc for biodegradable implants have significantly advanced following an earlier focus on magnesium (Mg) and iron (Fe). Mg and Fe base alloys experience an accelerated corrosion rate and harmful corrosion products, respectively. The corrosion rate of pure Zn, however, may need to be modified from its reported ~20 μm/year penetration rate, depending upon the intended ...

Tin-Zinc alloy coatings have many applications because of their unique properties such as corrosion resistance, solderability and flexibility. In this study, the effect of current density, temperature and pH on chemical composition, cathodic current efficiency, morphology and structures of the coatings was investigated. The results illustrated that, at low current densities (<0.5 mA/cm2), the c...
