The paper presents results of examination of material parameters of cast iron with structure obtained under rapid resolidification conditions carried out by means of the nanoindentation method.
Magnesium alloys are very interesting engineering materials due to their very high strength to density ratio (the best among metallic alloys). However, because of low hardness as well as low resistance against erosion, abrasion and corrosion, their applications in the industry is very limited. In order to improve mechanical performances, deposition of hardening coating by thermal spraying was proposed. In this work, the WC-based coatings with different binder (Co or Ni) and co-hardening additives (Cr or Cr3C2) manufactured by high velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) were studied. These coatings were deposited onto AZ31 magnesium alloy. The crucial problem is obtaining good-adhered coating without damage the substrate, because of relatively low temperature resistance of magnesium alloys (about 300 °C). To solve this problem, HVOF method, which is low temperature and high velocity, was proposed. Also an important role plays process parameters (e.g. spray distance, fuel medium, type of nozzle). The goal of the study was to compare three types of cermet coatings manufactured from commercially available powders (WC-Co, WC-Co-Cr and WC-Cr3C2-Ni) in terms of their microstructure features, microhardness, instrumented indentation and fracture toughness. Results revealed that selected process parameters made it possible to obtain well-adhered coating with good fulfillment of the surface unevenness of the AZ31 substrate. The most noticeable effect was influence of cobalt matrix on higher hardness (1.4 – 1.6 GPa) and Young modulus (330 – 340 GPa) of deposited coatings in compare to the nickel matrix ones (1.2 GPa and 305 GPa, respectively). The same trend was observed in case of fracture toughness, c.a. 6.5 MPa·m1/2 for Co-matrix and 4.9 MPa·m1/2 for Ni-matrix

Asfalt lany (MA) jest w ostatnich latach szczególnie popularny na nawierzchnie mostowe ze względu na wiele zalet, takich jak łatwa aplikacja, dobre właściwości hydroizolacyjne i wysoka trwałość. Wadą asfaltu lanego w porównaniu z innymi mieszankami mineralno-asfaltowymi jest jednak mniejsza odporność na odkształcenia trwałe. Asfalt naturalny Trinidad Epuré (TE) jest często stosowany w celu poprawy odporności na deformacje trwałe asfaltu lanego. Praktyczne doświadczenia pokazują, że w przypadku niedostatecznego uwzględnienia projektu nawierzchni MA i doboru materiałów mogą skutkować poważnymi uszkodzeniami. Dlatego też w niniejszej pracy oceniono wpływ dwóch parametrów: lepkości zerowego ścinania (ZSV) lepiszcza z dodatkiem asfaltu naturalnego TE oraz składu mastyksu określonego stosunkiem wypełniacz/lepiszcze na odporność na odkształcenia trwałe mieszanki MA. Podstawowym celem określenia ZSV lepiszcza z dodatkiem asfaltu naturalnego TE była ocena wpływu tego parametru na odporność na deformacje trwałe. Odporność mieszanek MA na deformacje trwałe (koleinowanie) oceniono na podstawie badania penetracji statycznej i dynamicznej.

Mastic asphalt (MA) has been particularly popular in recent years for bridge pavements due to many advantages such as easy application, good waterproofing properties, and high durability. However, the drawback of mastic asphalt in comparison to other asphalt mixtures is its lower resistance to permanent deformation. Trinidad Lake Asphalt (TLA) is often applied to make mastic asphalt resistant to permanent deformation. Practical experience demonstrates that serious failures may occur if MA pavement design and materials selection is not taken into account sufficiently. Therefore in this study, the influence of two parameters: zero shear viscosity (ZSV) of TLA-modified binder and mastic composition described by the filler–binder ratio, on the permanent deformation resistance of the MA mixture was evaluated. The primary purpose of determining the ZSV of the TLA-modified binders was to evaluate the rutting potential of the binders. The permanent deformation (rutting) resistance of the MA mixtures was evaluated based on static and dynamic indentation tests.
