Steel 17-7PH is austenitic-martensitic steel with high strength, hardness, and resistance to creep, and corrosion. It is designed for aerospace components, but can also be used for other applications that require high strength and corrosion resistance, as well as leaf springs for operation at temperatures up to 316 °C. It can be used in a solut...

Modern steel production cannot be imagined without manganese, because almost all steels contain manganese.In this paper, we present the impact of manganese on the tensile strength values of high-carbon steel. This paper presents an improvement in the quality of wire rolling with control of manganese content in steel and the value of C-equivalent, i...

The electrocoagulation with zeolite addition was used to treat compost leachate. The effects of different current densities and zeolite particle sizes on electrode dissolution, electrode surface condition, and removal efficiency were investigated. The surface of the electrodes was analysed by optical microscope, while the consumption of the alumini...

Leachate water from sanitary landfills represents one of the most complex global environmental problems. This paper examines the possibility of using aluminosilicate material, pyrophyllite, from the Parsovići deposit, as an adsorbent. It was researched the influence of two granulations of pyrophyllite (0-53 μm and 0-100 μm) on the degree of a...

Aluminum alloy foams are a form of porous metal whose structure resembles the shape of natural materials such as coral, bone, sponge, etc. Due to their structure, these materials retain good mechanical properties of the base material while being significantly lighter than non-porous metal. Metal foams can be used as energy and vibration absorbers, ...

The particle shape and size of the starting powders represent the most important physical properties, on which the quality of the compacts and final sintered products depends. Two types of powder were analyzed in the paper - electrolytic copper powder with a dendritic particle shape and water-atomized copper powder with an irregular particle shape....

This article deals with the analysis of the adsorptive properties of the waste produced during the shot blasting of castings in foundries. During this process, particles of moulding mixture and scale that remained on the surface of the casting after removal from the mould are removed. Since this waste contains particles of moulding mixture (SiO2, c...
