Nickel phosphorus alloy coatings were prepared by electrodeposition route from sulfate electrolyte bath at various current densities. SEM studies revealed that spherical grains covered the entire surface with uniform distribution. EDX results showed a linear increase of P content in the developed deposits with current density, causing an increase in the grains size and a drop in hardness values. XRD studies revealed monocrystalline orthorhombic alloys at low phosphorus content (10.88 wt. %). Corrosion test results showed that 1 A.dm-2 is the best applied current density providing the nobler Ecorr (-171.4 mV) and the lower icorr (4.64 μA/cm2).

Gold nanoparticles (AuNP) were synthesized using edible mushroom Russula delica (RD) in this study. Possibilities to evaluate these synthesized nanoparticles (RD-AuNPs) as bioactive substances were investigated. Characterization of synthesized RD-AuNPs were characterized via UV-vis, XRD, FTIR, EDX. In a spherical view, RD-AuNPs with a crystal size of 34.76 nm were synthesized. As a result, fungal systems used for nanomaterial biosynthesis as an effective alternative to chemical synthesis can be used in different biotechnological and medical applications. RD-AuNPs produced by green synthesis can be evaluated in this context.

In this study, we have synthesized the Zr substituted BaTi0.80Fe0.20O3 ceramics at different content of Zr from x=0.00 to 0.10 by using the solid-state route. The room temperature X-ray diffraction results confirmed the coexistence of the two tetragonal and hexagonal phases for x ≤ 0.050 of Zr content. While above 0.050 the hexagonal phase disappeared in benefit of the tetragonal phase. The Raman results confirmed the formation of these phases obtained by XRD. The scanning electron micrographs consisted of both spherical and straight grain forms for x=0.000 to 0.075, and only spherical grain form for x=0.100 attributed to the tetragonal phase. Also, the grain size increased accompanied by a decrease in density of ceramics with increasing Zr content up to 0.050 then decreased accompanied by an increase in density. Detailed studies of dielectric permittivity measurement provided a presence of two anomalies Te and TR-O at different temperatures, with a relaxation phenomenon and diffuse behavior which was very important for ceramic at x=0.075 of Zr content. The dielectric permittivity values of the two anomalies of Zr substituted BaTi0.80Fe0.20O3 ceramics increased with the increase of Zr content and the dielectric loss was minimal at x=0.100 of Zr content. The conductivity increased with increasing of Zr substitution from 0.025 to 0.075 levels while for x = 0.100 the dielectric conductivity decreased. And the Cole-Cole analysis indicated a negative thermal resistivity coefficient (NTCR) behavior of these materials and ideal Debye-type behavior.

Copper oxide (CuO) nanostructure particles were prepared using KOH/NaOH catalyst by low cost precipitation method and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectra (EDX) analysis. The photocatalytic dye degradation study of pure CuO nanostructure particles are analysed against two azo dyes (Direct black 38 (Black-E) and Congo red) under ultraviolet (UV) and solar irradiation. The release of major active species (*OH) in the photocatalytic degradation by as prepared CuO nanostructure particles were investigated by photoluminescence (PL) spectra with two different excitation wavelength (325 and 355nm). The band gap of CuO nanostructure particles was calculated from diffuse reflectance spectra. The photocatalytic effect of CuO nanostructure particles is confirmed by the UV – Vis and photoluminescence spectra and from the kinetic studies under UV and solar radiations. The photocatalytic degradation results revealed that 16.35 and 7.5% of black E and Congo red dye was degraded under UV, while the degradation was 47.2 and 17.6% under solar light. The influence of pH on the photodegradation and change in the reaction temperature under solar irradiation were also investigated.

Porous nanostructured SnO2 with a sheet-like morphology was synthesized through a simple green substrate-free gelatin-assisted calcination process using Tin tetracholoride pentahydrate as the SnO2 precursor and porcine gelatin as the template. Crystalline phase, morphology, microstructure, and optical characteristics of the as-prepared material were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), UV-visible absorption, and Photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL), respectively. XRD patterns of all the samples revealed the presence of a tetragonal crystalline structure with no other crystalline phase. Moreover, the synthesized hierarchical sheets assembled with nanoparticles displayed a large surface area and porous nanostructure. The calculated optical band gap energy varied from 2.62 to 2.87 eV depending on the calcination temperature. Finally, photoluminescence spectra indicated that the nanostructured SnO2 exhibited an intensive UVviolet luminescence emission at 396 nm, with shoulders at 374, violet emission peaks at 405 and 414 nm, blue-green emission peak at 486 nm, green emission peak at 534 nm and orange emission peak at 628 nm.

The influence of melt superheating treatment on the solidification characteristics and microstructure of Al–20%Mg2Si in-situ composite has been investigated. The results revealed that melt superheating temperature has significant effects on solidification parameters and morphology of primary Mg2Si particles. Solidification parameters acquired using the cooling curve thermal analysis method, indicate that both nucleation temperature and nucleation undercooling of primary Mg2Si particles increase by increasing melt superheating temperature, while recalescence undercooling decrease under the same condition. Also, based on the microstructural evaluations, melt superheating treatment can refine primary Mg2Si particles and alter their morphology from dendritic shape to more spherical shape and the eutectic microstructure of α-Al + Mg2Si becomes finer and the distance between eutectic layers becomes smaller..

Coatings based on chromium borides and chromium carbides are commonly employed in applications requiring high hardness, low friction coefficient, as well as corrosion resistance. In this work, we made layers of chromium borides and chromium carbides on the surface of low carbon steel through some specific treatments. For chromium borides, the boriding treatment in a solid medium at 900°C for 4 h was followed by chromium electroplating on the steel surface and finally the application of annealing treatment at 950°C for 1 and 2 h. For chromium carbides, the cementation in a solid medium was followed by electroplating of chromium on the surface and finally the application of annealing treatment in the temperature range between 500 and 1100°C for 1 h. The results showed that, in the first case, boron diffusion and chromium deposition led to chromium borides on the treated surface. Similarly, for the second case, the cemented layer and the chromium deposited on the surface combined to form chromium carbides on the treated surface after annealing. The characteristics of the chromium borides and chromium carbides obtained were very similar to those of chromium borides and chromium carbides obtained by other processes.

The objective of this work was to investigate the effect of rapid heating and cryogenic cooling on the fracture and tensile properties of Al-Cu-Mg samples. The specimens were subjected to three different heat treatment cycles in which the Infrared heating (IR) were used as the heating medium at the ageing stage, and the liquid nitrogen and water were used as the quenching mediums. The ageing temperature and time were 1900C and from 2 to 10h respectively. The results indicated that by using IR at the ageing stage, the hardening rate enhanced because the rapid heating via this method led to faster diffusion of the alloying elements. Moreover, the high density of nanosized precipitates formed during ageing was another reason for higher strength and ductility. Cryogenic treatment had a negligible effect on both the microstructure and tensile properties. However there was an improvemnet in the ductility to some extent. Overall, the combination of a high heating rate and cryogenic treatment led to the highest mechanical properties. SEM micrographs of the fracture surface demonstrated that in Cryogenic treatment plus Artificial Ageing (CAA) condition, the surface was fully covered by deep dimples in contrast to the Cryogenic treatment plus Infrared Heating (CIR) and Water-Quench plus Infrared Heating (QIR) conditions which contained shallwer dimples. Some facets were also observed in the latter samples.
