Hot Work Tool Steel Processed by Laser Powder Bed Fusion: A Review on Most Relevant Influencing Factors
(2021-03-26)
As a representative of a common carbon-bearing hot work tool steel AISI H13 is in focus of the present review paper. Most relevant details for processing of AISI H13 by laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) are systematically investigated. Three common stages of process parameter development and material assessment, respectively, are in focus: general processibility, process refinement, and deduction of process–microstructure–property relations, i.e., understanding of the interplay of relevant elementary mechanisms. On the ...

Simultaneous impact modified and chain extended glass fiber reinforced poly(lactic acid) composites: Mechanical, thermal, crystallization, and dynamic mechanical performance
(2021-02-05)
Herein, glass fiber (GF) reinforced binary, ternary, and quaternary poly(lactic acid) (PLA) composites were prepared. Toughening, and chain extension of PLA was achieved through the incorporation of impact modifier and chain extender and their concurrent effects on the spectroscopic, crystallization, mechanical, thermal, and thermomechanical properties of the composites were investigated. High mechanical properties of GF influenced the mechanical performance of the composites. However, GF alone could not restrict the ...

Bonding Behaviour of Steel Fibres in UHPFRC Based on Alkali-Activated Slag
(2022-03-04)
The mechanical performance of fibre-reinforced ultra-high-performance concrete based on alkali-activated slag was investigated, concentrating on the use of steel fibres. The flexural strength is slightly higher compared to the UHPC based on Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) as the binder. Correlating the flexural strength test with multiple fibre-pullout tests, an increase in the bonding behaviour at the interfacial-transition zone of the AAM-UHPC was found compared to the OPC-UHPC. Microstructural investigations on the ...

Effect of Surfactants on the Flow Patterns of Horizontal Tube Bundles with a Falling Film
(2020-03-24)
The influence of two alcoholic surfactants on the flow patterns of falling film tube bundles is investigated. The flow patterns are measured in a single‐stage absorption chiller in the absence of surfactants. The surface tension of H2O/aqueous LiBr solution with different concentrations of 1‐octanol and 2‐ethylhexanol is measured at low pressure in a saturated atmosphere. Small quantities of surfactants in the aqueous solution do not have an influence on the flow patterns of the condenser and evaporator, while a shift ...

Dissolution of Portlandite in Pure Water: Part 1 Molecular Dynamics (MD) Approach
(2022-02-14)
The current contribution proposes a multi-scale bridging modeling approach for the dissolution of crystals to connect the atomistic scale to the (sub-) micro-scale. This is demonstrated in the example of dissolution of portlandite, as a relatively simple benchmarking example for cementitious materials. Moreover, dissolution kinetics is also important for other industrial processes, e.g., acid gas absorption and pH control. In this work, the biased molecular dynamics (metadynamics) coupled with reactive force field ...

Growth of C-S-H phases on different metallic surfaces
(2022-02-21)
The influence of reinforcement, especially fibre reinforcement in ultra-high performance concrete is strongly dependent on the bonding (adhesive, shear and friction bond) between metallic surface and cementitious matrix. As usually straight fibres are used for fibre reinforcement and, thus, no significant mechanical bonding is existent, the adhesive bond is particularly important. Previous studies stated that the adhesive bonding behaviour between metallic materials and cementitious matrix strongly depends on the ...

Adsorption of PCE in alkali-activated materials analysed by fluorescence microscopy
(2021-10-18)
The realisation of high-performance concrete mixtures requires the use of superplasticizers to achieve a low water/binder ratio and thus high strengths. Polycarboxylate ethers (PCE) are mostly used as superplasticizers. The effectiveness of these superplasticizers depends on their chemical structure, the binders’ alkaline environment and the ions present in the pore solution of the binder. In high alkaline systems like some alkali-activated materials no effective superplasticizer have been found yet. To unravel the ...

Simulation framework for crystallization in melt flows of semi-crystalline polymers based on phenomenological models
(2022-04-16)
Polymer components are shaped mostly out of the molten state. As in the case of semi-crystalline polymers, crystallization can be suppressed by shock cooling, thermal process design allows to influence the solid bodies properties. A simulation approach that enables to predict these properties based on a forecast of crystallinity is presented in this paper. The main effects to consider and possibilities of modeling and simulation are discussed. A detailed description of how to create an experimental foundation using ...

Determination of Local Electrical Properties Using a Potential Field Measurement for Electrically Conductive Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics with Metal Contact Pins Joined via Injection Molding
(2022-07-09)
Carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) bear a high potential in terms of electrical conductivity and its potential applications. A locally resolved electrical measurement method for these anisotropic materials is a key prerequisite for understanding the structural and manufacturing process-related interrelationships. The aim of this paper is to develop a measurement method that allows this to be achieved and also to investigate areas of overmolded metal contact pins in detail. CFRP samples with polyamide 6 and ...

Polyurethane-Based Gel Electrolyte for Application in Flexible Electrochromic Devices
(2022-06-28)
For the application in flexible electrochromic devices (ECDs) on plastic substrates, a new polyurethane-based gel electrolyte was manufactured. In this context, the curing behavior and the influence of the proportion of solvent and salt on the ion conductivity as well as the optical and mechanical properties were investigated. Furthermore, the stoichiometric ratio of the polyurethane matrix was varied to influence the ion conductivity. As an isocyanate component, the aliphatic difunctional polyisocyanate prepolymer, ...
