Fire investigators have attempted to study fire behaviors through microstructural examination of molten marks on copper wire. However, there not been many studies the metallurgical real-world cases. This research examined surface morphology and microstructure in longitudinal section wire from various scenes explain how they formed identify surrounding materials. The results show that foreign el...

Well crystallized pure calcium zirconate (CaZrO3 ) nanopowder was successfully synthesized using the molten-salt method. CaCl2 , Na 2CO3, micro-ZrO 2and nano-ZrO 2 were used as starting materials. On heating, Na2CO3 reacted with CaCl 2to form NaCl and CaCO 3. Nano CaZrO 3 was formed by reacting equimolar amounts of in situformed CaCO 3 (or CaO) and ZrO 2 in molten Na 2CO3-NaCl e...

The twin-roll strip casting process is a typical steel-strip production method which combines continuous casting and hot rolling process. The production line from molten liquid steel to the final steel-strip is shortened and the production cost is reduced significantly compared to the conventional continuous casting. The twin-roll strip casting process can produce 1-5 mm thin steel strip direct...

Composite material is a combination of two or more materials having compositional variations and depicting properties distinctively different from those of the individual materials of the composite. A composite mixture having more than one fiber is known as hybrid composite During the past decade, considerable research effort has been directed towards the development of in situ Metal Matrices h...

Thermal diffusivity values of molten germanium and silicon were measured by a laser flash method. Simple but useful sample cell systems were developed to keep the molten germanium and silicon shape uniform for a given thickness. In the present experimental condition, it is necessary to consider the effect of not only the radiative heat loss but also the conductive heat loss at the interface bet...

for beneficiation of converter slag, the role of surface phenomena on slag composition was studied. this work includes some experimental data, which were measured for basic oxygen steel (bos) slag in isfahan steel plant. all data were collected on site in the plant. the results support the idea that surface activity plays a major role in converter slag formation. it was also a new finding that ...
