Role of micro/nano fillers on mechanical and tribological properties of polyamide66/polypropylene composites

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the mechanical and tribological properties of polyamide66/polypropylene (PA66/PP) blend, graphite (Gr), nanoclay (NC) and short carbon fiber (NC+SCF) fillers, and the results have been supplemented with scanning electron micrographs to help understand the possible wear mechanisms.

High temperature erosion wear of flame and plasma-sprayed nickel–chromium coatings under simulated coal-fired boiler atmospheres

TL;DR: In this paper, the behavior of a modified nickel-chromium alloy (with small aluminium and titanium additions) subjected to the action of simulated post-combustion gases from a coal-fired boiler combustor was evaluated.

Nanomechanical properties of films derived from zinc dialkyldithiophosphate

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors applied scanning force microscopes to the problem of determining the nanomechanical properties and topography of films derived from the antioxidant/antiwear oil additive zincdialkyldithiophosphate (ZDDP).
