Effect of Elevated Temperatures on Properties of Blended Cements with Clinoptilolite

Description: Article investigates the effect of elevated temperature on properties of clinoptilolite blended cements. Clinoptilolite was used at 5 %, 10 %, 15 % and 20 % replacement by weight for Portland cement while sand and water quantities were kept constant in all mix designs. The mortars with 5 % or 10 % cliniptilolite substitution have compressive strength exceeding 42.5 MPa after being subjected to 400 °C and 500 °C.

Tribological Properties of (EN AW-AlCu4MgSi(A)) Aluminium Alloy Surface Layer After Ball Burnishing

Description: Article presents the tribological properties of (EN AW-AlCu4MgSi(A)) aluminium alloy surface layer after ball burnishing. EN AW-AlCu4MgSi(A) aluminium alloy is widely used as a structural material in aerospace and automotive applications. The authors have subjected it to grinding, polishing and ball burnishing. The authors have performed ball-on-disk tribological tests. We have also determined normalized 3D roughness parameters. High surface smoothness turns out to be obtainable. Favorable effe… more
