An investigation into the effect of a synthetic variety of hectorite, i.e. Laponite (LAP), on changes in the structure and me chanical properties of poly(butylene succinate) (PBS), poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) is the aim of the present paper. Polymer composites containing 1, 3, 5, and 7 wt.% LAP were prepared using a co rotating twin screw extruder. The mechanical properties (under static tension, static three-point bending and impact tests) were investigated. In addition, changes in adhesion at the phase boundary and the surface geometrical structure of the sample fractures were examined. It was found that the studied composites were characterized by a similar structure. Adhesion at the polymer-filler interface was very good for the PBAT and PCL-based composites and slightly worse for the PBS-based compo sites. The mechanical properties of the investigated polymers generally changed similarly. With the exception of the three point bending tests, all the polymers exhibited deterioration in the mechanical properties after the addition of LAP. However, considering the results of the significance tests, it is important to note that some results did not differ significantly from one another.

Designing new aluminium alloys always requires an assessment of the influence of modified contents of the main alloying additions on the required properties for a specific application. The aim of this study was to develop a new alloy with a higher tensile strength than the tensile strength obtained in typical 6xxx series alloys, with a satisfactory hot extrusion ductility. The article presents the results of studies on the influence of copper additions, in three variants, on the structure and mechanical properties of extruded aluminium profiles in various heat treatment states. The base reference for the presented studies was the following aluminium alloys: AlMgSi (EN AW-6063) and AlCuMgMn (EN AW-2017). On this basis, three alloy variants with Cu contents of 2.5, 3.5 and 4.5 weight % were selected. These alloys were cast by vertical semi-continuous casting in the form of ingots with a diameter of 100 mm. Hot deformation studies were carried out in the process of co-extrusion on a semi-industrial line consisting of a horizontal 5 MN press together with auxiliary devices. The extruded profiles were free from defects that could have resulted from the process, such as overheating, cracks and blisters. The materials in the form of extruded profiles, in the heat treatment states T1 and T4, were characterised in terms of structure and mechanical properties. The variants with Cu contents of 2.5 wt% and 3.5 wt% had comparable structure and grain size, and the variant with 4.5 wt% Cu had a finer microstructure. For the studied alloys after heat treatment, higher the strength, higher the Cu content in the alloy, ranging from 445 to 543 MPa. It has been found that it is possible to develop modified aluminium alloys based on the 6xxx series with an increased copper addition (but still below the content typical for Al alloys of the 2xxx series) that will have a strength above 400 MPa. The first variant of the new alloy with a Cu content of 2.5 wt% meets the set goal and meets the requirements set at the beginning of the studies.

The effect of unmodified and stearic acid-modified calcium carbonate (5, 10, 20 and 30 wt%) on selected properties (tensile strength, puncture resistance, haze and gloss) and processability of polypropylene films (MVR, extensional viscosity) was investigated. The composites were obtained in the twin-screw extrusion process with cold granulation, and the films in the single-screw extrusion process, using a flat die head (so-called cast films) and a chill roll type cooling and pull-back device. It has been shown that stearic acid is an effective modifier of polypropylene processing properties both under shear and tensile flow conditions (lower extensional viscosity of films containing modified calcium carbonate).

Wykazano, że kwas stearynowy jest efektywnym modyfikatorem właściwości przetwórczych folii polipropylenowych zarówno w warunkach przepływu ścinającego, jak i rozciągającego (mniejsza lepkość wzdłużna folii zawierających modyfikowany węglan wapnia).

The joining of sheet metal parts produced in the material combination of Fe-Fe, Fe-Al as well as Fe-thermoplastic and Al-thermoplastic can be realized by the Resistance Element Soldering (RES). Extruded bimetallic elements were used to form the overlap joint. The semi-finished product for extrusions was a Cu 99.9 tube with dimensions φ6 × 0.5 mm and length 9 mm, filled with Sn60Pb40 solder. “T” shaped overprints were produced in two ways. Simulation in the ANSYS software environment was chosen to optimize, select the appropriate forming process, and design the geometry of the functional parts of the forming tool, allowing to use only one extrusion forming operation. The results of the simulations are the magnitudes of stresses and strains, and different head shape geometries of the bimetallic element extrusions of the three proposed forming methods. The task was to achieve extrusions without defects of the Cu tube shell, such as corrugations and wrinkles. The geometry was observed and compared by macroanalysis of extrusion sections made on a laboratory forming tool.

Nakładki w kształcie litery „T” wykonywano na dwa sposoby. W celu optymalizacji, doboru odpowiedniego procesu formowania i zaprojektowania geometrii funkcjonalnych części narzędzia kształtującego wybrano symulację w środowisku oprogramowania ANSYS, co pozwala na użycie tylko jednej operacji kształtowania przez wytłaczanie. Wynikiem symulacji są wielkości naprężeń i odkształceń oraz różne parametry geometryczne kształtu głowic wytłoczonych elementów bimetalicznych z trzech proponowanych metod kształtowania. Celem było uzyskanie wytłoczek pozbawionych wad powłoki rury z Cu, takich jak pofałdowania i zmarszczki. Parametry geometryczne obserwowano i porównywano za pomocą makroanalizy produktów wytłaczania wykonanych w laboratoryjnym narzędziu kształtującym.

The fabrication of polymer-based nanocomposites by means of twin extruders is a typical method for manufacturing lightweight and high-strength structures. However, selection of the optimal parameters for this process to study the material characteristics is important. The primary aim of the present study was to ascertain the optimum extruder temperature and nanosilica content in an acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene matrix composite. The response surface methodology was based on two factors and three levels. The identification of the effect of the parameters on the fatigue behavior of the fabricated composite was comprehensively analyzed. The results were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The obtained results revealed that up to 4% nano-SiO2 improves tensile strength and reduces the impact toughness. On the other hand, an increase in the extrusion temperature yields a higher impact toughness and lower tensile strength. The optimization results showed that 2.5% nanosilica and the extrusion temperature of 225°C result in the maximum tensile strength of 41 MPa, and impact toughness of 30 KJ/m2.

Until recently, the strengthening efficiency of carbonaceous reinforcements in aluminum-based matrix nanocomposites (AlMNCs) was lower than expected. The intrinsic characteristics of matrix and carbonaceous reinforcements and fabrication technique, which affected the microstructural characterization, played main roles in determining the performance of Cs/AlMNCs. In this study a novel strategy was developed via flake powder metallurgy followed by slurry blending combined with rheocasting and hot-extrusion processing to prepare hybrid AA7075-matrix composite reinforced with CNTs + GNPs. No Al4C3 phase was detected in Raman spectrums, while uniform dispersion of carbonaceous hybrid reinforcements with minimal structural damage was observed. There were ~ 9% and 39% decrease in the average grain size of the as-casted and extruded CNTs + GNPs/AA7075 composites, respectively, compared to AA7075 alloy. In the extruded CNTs + GNPs/AA7075 composite, plate precipitates were predominant and some lath-like dynamic precipitates were observed at the GNPs/AA7075 interfaces. The micro-hardness, tensile yield strength (TYS), ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and uniform elongation (UE) of the CNTs + GNPs/AA7075 composite were improved by ~ 17%, 51%, 7% and 20% compared to AA7075 alloy. An ultra-high yield strengthening efficiency of carbonaceous hybrid reinforcements in AA7075 alloy up to 3950 was obtained, where load bearing was the main strengthening mechanism and carbonaceous reinforcements illustrated bridging and pulling-out in the fracture surfaces of composite.

Ultrafine-grained (UFG) materials have been of great attention due to their considerable behavior compared to coarse-grained counterparts. Also, the machinability of these UFG materials is of great importance because of the machining significance in manufacturing the final shape of industrial components. Hence, this study dealt with machinability in relation to the microstructure and mechanical properties of the UFG pure copper processed by the twist extrusion. The remarkable microstructure evolution through the dynamic recrystallization mechanisms improved the tensile strengths and hardness of the twist extrusion processed pure copper. Also, the reduction of ductility in the UFG copper compared to the initial state was related to the change of tensile fractography mechanism in which the large and deep dimples transformed into the combined small and shallow dimples with some cleavage planes in the UFG copper. Furthermore, the enhanced machinability of the processed sample was related to its lower thermal conductivity and the development of strain localization within the narrow shear bands which lead to the production of discontinuous short chips. Hence, the formation of the UFG structure is a suitable option to attain the enhanced machinability behavior of copper as one of the most used metals.

The effects of the working temperatures (260 °C, 200 °C and 130 °C) on microstructure formation in the AA 6063 alloy, processed upto ten passes by cyclic expansion extrusion (CEE) was studied. The microstructures of the CEE-processed specimens in the convergent and extrusion regions (center and edge) were examined after every two passes. The EBSD analysis revealed a decrease in the average grain size from 22 ± 5 µm to 2 ± 0.5 µm after four passes, with a simultaneous presence of a large fraction of HAGBs (45%) at 130 °C processing temperature. The TEM observations also confirmed the presence of nano-grains of sizes in the range of 50–100 nm. The CEE-processed specimen showed the highest improvement in hardness and ultimate tensile strength from 38 ± 3.4 HV and 118 ± 6 MPa to 122 ± 1 HV and 267 ± 2 MPa, respectively, after four passes at 130 °C. The specimens processed at 260 °C (ten passes), and 200 °C (four passes) showed moderate improvement in strength of 184 ± 3 MPa and 216 ± 3 MPa, respectively. On further straining (at 200 °C and 130 °C after six to ten passes), continuous dynamic recovery and dynamic re-crystallization took place which led to grain growth during SPD and, as a result, the alloy lost its strain hardening capacity and there was a decrease in the mechanical properties. At higher number of passes, the grains were elongated and coarsened, i.e., a non-equiaxed microstructure was seen after ten passes at 200 °C and 130 °C. In contrast, the specimen processed at 260 °C after ten passes, showed a homogeneous microstructure with near-equiaxed grains with 38% of HAGBs. A lower processing temperature produced a microstructure with a fine grain size distribution after a lower number of passes.

The following paper discusses the studies of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) reinforced with glassy carbon (GC) particles. The conducted research focused on the processing properties of the material. Samples were made from extruded HDPE filament reinforced with GC. The granulate for extrusion was made by depositing GC particles on the surface of HDPE granules in ethylene alcohol. The granulate was subsequently extruded in the form of a filament (1.6 mm in diameter). The filament was cut into smaller pieces, which were then prepared and examined using a light microscope. Density measurements and quantitative analysis were performed to examine the amount of glassy carbon in the samples. The measurements showed about a 1% volume of glassy carbon in the reinforced filament. The melt flow index was measured for the HDPE filament and HDPE filament reinforced with GC. The viscosity curves for the neat HDPE and the composite filament were determined. The reinforced HDPE filament was characterized by slightly lower flow parameters; however, the difference between the results was insignificant for material processing. The maximum feed rate of the prepared filament for the FDM 3D printing process was evaluated by mathematical modeling. The results show that both the prepared materials have a similar printing capability as commonly used PLA, only the composite filament should have a 1.4% lower feed rate than the neat HDPE.

Granulat do wytłaczania został przygotowany poprzez osadzanie cząstek GC na powierzchni granul HDPE w alkoholu etylowym, a następnie po wysuszeniu wytłoczony w postaci filamentu o średnicy ok. 1,6 mm. Przygotowany filament został poddany regranulacji, a następnie poddany obserwacji na mikroskopie świetlnym. Za pomocą pomiarów gęstości oraz analizy obrazu zdjęć z mikroskopu oceniono udział węgla szklistego w osnowie HDPE. Pomiary wykazała udział objętościowy zbrojenia na poziomie 1%. Właściwości przetwórcze zostały ocenione poprzez pomiary MFI oraz wyznaczonych na ich podstawie krzywych lepkości. Kompozytowy filament wykazywał nieznacznie mniejsze płynięcie w porównaniu do bazowego tworzywa. Ostatecznie oceniono maksymalny feed rate w procesie drukowania 3D (FDM) za pomocą modeli analitycznych dla wytworzonych filamentów. Wyniki modelowania pokazują, że oba przygotowane materiały mógłby być drukowane przy podobnych prędkościach jak popularne PLA.

The quaternary Mg–9Li–2Al–0.5Sc alloy (in wt%) was prepared from pure components. After homogenization, the alloy was subjected to severe plastic deformation by KoBo extrusion and cyclic forging leading to grain refinement in the range of 0.5–2 µm of hexagonal close-packed (HCP) α phase. Deformed alloys showed high ultimate tensile strength near 200 MPa and good elongation in the range 30–40% at room temperature (RT). Large elongations close to 200% were obtained during the tensile test at a temperature of 200 °C. Deformed samples showed the presence of multiple voids confirming grain boundary sliding mechanism of deformation. Twins on {101-2} planes were identified using electron backscatter diffraction analysis, being in a good agreement with the earlier observation of Mg–Li and Mg–Sc alloys. Intermetallic phases such as cubic MgSc were identified in deformed alloys mostly within HCP α phase, whereas HCP MgSc2 particles were observed within body-centered cubic (BCC) β phase. Intermetallic phases were responsible for RT strengthening of alloys and slightly lower tensile elongation during superplastic deformation. Formation of the HCP α phase was observed within the BCC β phase in tensile deformed alloys. Atomic-level nucleation of HCP phase within the β phase was identified by the use of high-resolution transmission electron microscopy technique.

The paper presents an innovative method of metal forming of hollow flanged elements. In this process, flanges are formed using a movable sleeve, which moves in the opposite direction to the punch. The movement of the sleeve causes a closed impression to open, due to which the flange is also formed in a semi-free impression. The tube billets were made of the 42CrMo4 grade steel deformed under the cold metal forming conditions. The calculations were conducted using the finite elements method in Deform-2D/3D. Various technological parameters of the process were analysed, among others the diameter of the flange and the initial height of the impression of the movable sleeve. On the basis of the obtained results, the limiting phenomena of the process were determined and the influence of the analysed technological parameters on these phenomena were presented.

Thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers (TPU), having mechanical properties similar to chemically crosslinked rubbers, can be processed using extrusion or injection molding techniques. Combining extrusion with a foaming process leads to the fabrication of porous lightweight materials with novel properties. These properties can be further modified by applying additives, such as polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS). POSS are organic-inorganic hybrid nanofillers that could enhance polymer-based composites properties, e.g. mechanical properties or thermal stability. In this work, the foaming extrusion process of TPU, utilizing azodicarboxamide (ADC), sodium bicarbonate (SC) and citric acid monohydrate (CA) as blowing agents (or their mixtures) was described. TPU was modified with two kinds of POSS nanofillers: TMP DiolIsobutyl POSS (TMP POSS) and trans-Cyclohexanediol Isobutyl POSS (TC POSS) to intensify the nucleation of the foaming process and to improve the thermal properties of the TPU matrix. A suitable processing window was determined by means of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TG). The relations between the type of blowing agent mixture, POSS nanofillers and microstructure/thermal properties of TPU porous composites were evaluated using DSC and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The blowing agent mixtures, which produce solid residue after decomposition (ADC-CA and CA-SC), influence the nucleation process in the crystalline domains of TPU. The addition of POSS nanofillers strengthens the abovementioned effect and additionally increases the amount of pores in the extrudates, as well as enhances their shape stability.

Te właściwości można dalej modyfikować przez zastosowanie dodatków, takich jak wielościenne oligomeryczne silseskwioksany (POSS). POSS są organiczno-nieorganicznymi hybrydowymi nanowypełniaczami, które mogą polepszyć właściwości kompozytów polimerowych, np. właściwości mechaniczne lub stabilność termiczną. W pracy opisano proces wytłaczania porującego TPU z użyciem azodikarboksyamidu (ADC), wodorowęglanu sodu (SC) i monohydratu kwasu cytrynowego (CA) jako środków porotwórczych (lub ich mieszanin). TPU zmodyfikowano dwoma rodzajami nanowypełniaczy POSS: TMP DiolIsobutyl POSS (TMP POSS) i trans-Cyclohexanediol Isobutyl POSS (TC POSS) w celu zintensyfikowania procesu nukleacji podczas porowania i poprawy właściwości termicznych matrycy TPU. Wyznaczenie odpowiedniego okna przetwórczego przeprowadzono za pomocą różnicowej kalorymetrii skaningowej (DSC) i analizy termograwimetrycznej (TG). Zależność między rodzajem mieszaniny środków porotwórczych, nanowypełniaczami POSS a właściwościami mikrostrukturalnymi/termicznymi porowatych kompozytów TPU oceniano za pomocą DSC i skaningowej mikroskopii elektronowej (SEM). Mieszaniny środków porujących, które wytwarzają stałą pozostałość po rozpadzie (ADC-CA i CA-SC), wpływają na proces nukleacji w krystalicznych domenach TPU. Dodanie nanowypełniaczy POSS wzmacnia wyżej wspomniany efekt i dodatkowo zwiększa ilość porów w wytłoczynach, a także zwiększa ich stabilność kształtu.

The effect of grooves number in the feed section and screw length as well as filler nature and content on the productivity of single-screw extruder has been examined. Compositions based on polypropylene with glass fibers, talc and chalk were used for research. It is established that the number of grooves in the feed section and the length of the screw differently affect the productivity of a single screw extruder depending on the nature and content of the filler. This effect is shown to be most significant for polypropylene compositions with mineral powders (talc and chalk).
