The methodological components of direct and indirect analytical determining of the degree of coating of synthetic diamond grinding powders are analyzed. It has been established that the weight method most used in practice for determining this technological property of grinding powder is not universal for different methods of applying the coating. More universal in this regard, as the review of publications showed, is the well-known indirect-analytical method based on the pycnometric-additive approach. An improved variant of this method is proposed, aimed at application to high-strength synthetic diamond grinding powders. The method takes into account the peculiarities of the 3D morphology of the grains of such powders. Using the example of grinding powder AC300 500/400, the grains of which were coated with a solution of a mixture of boron oxide, sodium silicate, and titanium carbide, the advantages of using the proposed method are illustrated. The results of a comparison of determining the degree of coating by a known method and its improved variant are presented.

A driveshaft is a small spring coil less than 1mm in diameter, composed of several stainless-steel wire filaments. In intervention, the driveshaft is used to transmit force and motion to the inside body through the existing micro channels (such as arteries, veins, and gastrointestinal tract). The performance of the driveshaft determines the efficiency, stability, and accuracy of force and motion transitions, the ability to pass through tortuous microchannels, and the damage to healthy tissues. To determine the influence of fabrication parameters (filament, wire diameter, and outer diameter) on the mechanical properties (such as bending stiffness and natural frequency) of the driveshaft, a simulation was established in ABAQUS to calculate the deformation displacement under 0.0098N and first-order natural frequency. Then, the bending stiffness is calculated. The results show that the bending stiffness and the first-order natural frequency of the driveshaft increase with the increase of the filament number and wire diameter, and with the outer diameter of the driveshaft increases, the bending stiffness increases, while the first-order natural frequency decreases. Finally, the simulation model is verified by measuring the deformation displacement in the experiment. This study provides a methodology for designing and selecting the driveshaft in Interventional therapy.

Due to tedious and time-consuming work put into the conventional mold/die microprocessing (about 37% of the total time of the entire mold/die production). Therefore, to improve or enhance the quality of mold/dies at the final step with a less number of trained and skilled operators or decrease the processing time to cut the overall cost dramatically, AISI-O1 cold work steel was micro-processed by Pulsed Nd: YAG laser. The influence of laser processing parameters on the evolution of the correlated surface morphology was investigated by a 3D profilometer, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and optical microscopy (OM). The results show that when AISI-O1 specimens were irradiated with various parameters, the morphology of AISI-O1 cold work steel was changed correspondingly. It also demonstrates that the different kinds of micro-processed surface morphology could be established successfully to satisfy the later practical requirements for a given laser. Meanwhile, the effect of laser processing parameters on the relevant temperature was described, and the laser microprocessing temperature field was also proposed. It reveals that the influence of laser pulse feed rate was more prominent than that of other parameters on the relevant micro-processed surface morphology.

Copper (II) oxide (CuO) has attained significant attention from researchers because of its unique chemical and physical properties. Ag-doped CuO thin films have been produced on the soda glass substrate (SLG) by spin coating technique at different doping ratios. Structural, morphological, and optical properties of thin films produced depending on altered silver ratios have been examined through X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, respectively. Band gaps of prepared undoped and 1% Ag-doped CuO thin films have been measured as 1.90eV and 1.63eV, respectively. Ag/undoped CuO and Ag-doped CuO/ZnO/AZO solar cells have been modelled, and their photovoltaic parameters have also been calculated using the SCAPS-1D simulation program. This work aims to investigate the photovoltaic parameters that would improve the efficiency of a solar cell. The effect of Ag atoms on the efficiency of CuO solar cells has been investigated depending on the acceptor density (Na), the interface defect density (Nt), and the operating temperature. Ag-doped CuO solar cells have shown the highest efficiency for Nt=1010 cm-3 and Na=6, 5x1016 cm-3 values. It has been well observed that as the operating temperature increases, the solar cells’ power conversion efficiency decreases. The highest charge generation rates in the undoped and Ag-doped solar cells have been determined as 1.49×1022 1/cm3.s and 1.51×1025 1/cm3.s, respectively. All the results, either theoretical or experimental, have been presented in this work and have been compared for a conclusion that has been made in detail.

: Methodological features of indirect determining of thickness coating of grains grinding powders of synthetic diamond are analyzed. A newly revised classification of known methods for determining the thickness of the coating is proposed. The prospects of the methods based on the application of an external specific surface are noted. A positive feature is the proposal to determine the thickness of the coating separately for each grain of the sample, followed by the generalization of the results by calculating the arithmetic mean. This calculation scheme allows you to get more reliable information about the thickness of the coating. The expediency of using an extrapolation-affine 3D grain model in such a calculation scheme is substantiated. Using the extrapolation-affininе 3D grain model allows for determining the thickness of the coating of diamond powder grains without the traditional assumption about the spherical shape of their grains and with less error. For an example of grinding powder AC125 400/315, the advantage of such a 3D model compared to a 3D model in the form of a sphere is proved. The method proposed on the basis of such methodical innovation can be used for powders of other abrasive materials.

The multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were coated on micropunch homemade equipment with the waste alcohol as a resource. The correlated characteristics were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), and Raman spectroscopy. Moreover, the synthesized MWCNTs were grown on some micropunches to confirm the relevant, beneficial effect on the service life of micropunches compellingly and convincingly. The results indicate that MWCNTs coated on micropunch can enhance its service life up to 35% of that without MWCNTs. Due to the lubrication of MWCNTs coating between the micropunch and the specimen, the wear of the micropunch coated with MWCNTs distinctively decreases, even in the severe wear period. As a result, the correlated wear loss is also less than that of the micropunch without MWCNTs coating, ascribed to the graphitic nature of MWCNTs. Meanwhile, because of the usage of the waste alcohol, the technique of the relevant synthesized MWCNTs is green to the environment, which is promising for practical applications.

For many paints, paper coatings, and other pigmented coatings, latex and soluble binders are used to impart mechanical properties. However, non-uniform latex binder distributions are often observed in the thickness direction during application and drying, leading to quality issues. While several publications have documented this issue, few solutions are offered in the literature. Here we report a simple process to use electrostatic interactions to attach latex binder to pigments. Coating suspensions are generated using cationic precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) pigments that are mixed with anionic styrene-butadiene (SB) latex binders resulting in latex-covered pigments. The migration of latex binder in coatings generated on various substrates under various drying conditions was measured using Raman spectroscopy and compared with reference coatings. The new system shows reduced latex binder migration for most situations than those obtained with the reference coating. The coated papers were also measured for strength, opacity, gloss, water drainage rate, and porosity. Little difference is seen in the picking strength of the coating and gloss compared to coatings prepared with standard formulations. Water drainage rate, opacity, and porosity were higher for latex-covered pigment (LCP) coatings than the reference standard coating; this increased porosity is likely due to the strong electrostatic attraction that exists between the cationic pigment and anionic latex binder that reduces the densification of the coating during drying.

Commercial aluminum foils were coated by graphene oxide, and its functionalized derivatives and the corrosion performance of the coated specimens were examined in acidic conditions (lithium perchlorate and sulfuric acid). Electrochemical experiments have shown that all graphene oxide-coated specimens provided up to 96% corrosion inhibition efficiency with a corresponding lower corrosion rate compared to the bare aluminum foil. Our results clearly show that graphene-related materials offer viable alternatives for the protection of aluminum, and this opens up a number of possibilities for its use in a number of commercial applications.

The Zr1-xCox(x=0, 0.25, 0.53, 0.63, 1) thin films were deposited on quartz substrate using magnetron co-sputtering of Zirconium and Cobalt targets in confocal geometry. A constant pulsed direct current (PDC) on Zirconium and radio frequency (RF) of various powers on Cobalt target were applied to vary the concentration of Co in the Zr1-xCox film. The film composition was quantified using EDX measurements. The hydrogen storage capacity of these films was studied using an in-house developed hydrogen adsorption setup, in which the electrical resistivity of the film was monitored as a function of hydrogen partial pressure and temperature. The films' surface morphology and crystal structure before and after hydrogenation were characterized using atomic force microscopy and grazing incidence X-ray diffraction techniques using synchrotron radiation, respectively. An increase in the particle size after hydrogenation was observed for all the films. An increase in resistivity was also observed due to the absorption of hydrogen in all the compositions. The near stoichiometric film Zr0.47Co0.53 showed the highest hydrogen absorption level at 200 oC at all partial pressures. However, a decrease in the response at temperatures higher than 200 oC was observed in the film containing a Co concentration. The mechanism for the increase in resistivity of the film on hydrogenation is explained. Keywords: ZrCo alloy, hydrogen getter, magnetron co-sputtering, four-probe resistivity, thin film.

: Multi-functional hybrid films were developed by doping PTFE into CeO 2 by co-sputtering of CeO 2 and PTFE targets. The hybrid films formed on borosilicate glass substrate containing from 5 to 15 vol. % PTFE in CeO 2 showed UV shielding, high indentation hardness, hydrophobicity, optical transmittance in visible light, and high bending crack resistance. Optical properties of 100 nm thick CeO 2 -5 vol. % PTFE film revealed UV light shielding of more than 80 % at 380 nm and visible light transmittance higher than 80 %. Indentation hardness measured under the load of 0.001mN was more than 16,000N/mm 2 of 2.7 times higher than the glass substrate. No crack in the film was observed by bending 1.5 cm in diameter. Furthermore, the hydrophobic surface property was evaluated by the water contact angle to be higher than 90 degrees. Preliminary characterization of the CeO 2 -PTFE film using XPS and XMA revealed that chemical states of F in sputter doped PTFE in CeO 2 can be considered to exist as C-F and Ce-F compounds. On the other hand, chemical states of Ce changed partially from Ce +4 (CeO 2 ) to Ce +3 (Ce 2 O 3 or CeF 3 ) with increasing doped PTFEF in the film. In this rapid communication, we preliminary described the optical, mechanical and chemical properties of newly developed hybrid CeO 2 -PTFE films prepared by sputtering.
