Tailoring Electrolytic Deposition of Zn-Ni Alloys for Superior Corrosion Resistance in Harsh Environments
Abstract: Since Zn–Ni alloy coatings are more resistant to corrosion than pure zinc coatings, they are being researched extensively. In this study, Zn–Ni alloy coatings electrolytically deposited from an acidic sulfate bath are investigated. The study looks into how the microstructure, phase composition, and corrosion resistance of the coatings are affected by deposition factors like pH, current density, and electrolyte composition. X-ray diffraction (XRD), potentiodynamic polarization, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) …

Microstructural and Hardness Study of A390/20wt.% SiC Functionally Graded Metal Matrix Composite
Abstract: Functionally graded materials are the upcoming new class of advanced materials, which exhibit gradual change in the microstructure and the composition in a definite direction, and hence variation in functional performance within a part. Functionally graded metal matrix composites (FGMMC) are FGM with metal and ceramic constituents. Aluminum-Silicon alloys are well-known for their unique combination of desirable characteristics, which includes excellent castability and less density combined with good mechanical properties. …

Tribological Behavior of Chilled Aluminum Alloy (LM-13) Reinforced with Titanium Carbide (TiC) Metal Matrix Composites for Automobile Applications.
Abstract: In the present research, aluminum alloy (LM13) Metal Matrix Composite (MMC) is prepared by stir casting technique and is reinforced with titanium carbide (TiC) particulates in the weight percent ranging from 3 wt.% to 15 wt.% in the steps of 3 wt.%. The dispersoid i.e. TiC particle size added varies between 100–200 µm. The resulting MMCs were solidified under the influence of copper chill of 25 mm thickness to study …
