polycarbonate (PC), polyethersulfone (PES) and a multi-block random copolymer of PES and PC were blended. It was found that the interfacial adhesion was enhanced, the size of the dispersed phase was reduced and PES and PC formed an interlocking structure with the copolymer, which suggest the addition of the compatibizer may improved the miscibility between PES and PC, and result in the improvement of the mechanical properties of the blends. The compatibility behavior of PES with PC was examined using differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and SAXS.

The effect of the neodymium content on mechanical properties of the electro-brush plated nanoAl2O3/Ni composite coating was investigated in this paper. The microstructure and phase structure were studied with scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The hardness and abrasion properties of several coatings with different neodymium content were studied by nanoindentation test and friction / wear experiment. Results show that the coatings are much finer and more compact when the neodymium was added, and the hardness and abrasion property of the coatings with neodymium were improved obviously. Besides, the small cracks conduced by the upgrowth stress in the coatings were ameliorated when the rare earth neodymium was added. The improvement mechanism was further discussed.

. Banks of stone materials from Michoacán, Mexico were characterized, since they are used in the construction of infrastructure in the area. With these materials are made hydraulic concrete mixtures or asphalt mixtures, foundations, paving stones and in restoration of historical monuments. The rocks analyzed and characterized, come from banks of volcanic stone materials and banks of crushed stone materials, which were subjected to mechanical tests such as uniaxial compression resistance (UCR), in addition was used scanning electron microscope (SEM), by means of which the characterization was carried out, obtaining morphological information of the material. The comparison of physical-mechanical properties with the elements they possess is important to estimate their behavior within ceramic matrices or as a structural element.

Rolling and punching techniques of AZ31 alloy were investigated in this paper. Various rolling experiments were carried out to make fine-grained Mg sheets. Punching tests were conducted at the temperatures range from 70 to 300 oC. The analysis revealed that there existed an excellent warm forming temperature for as-rolled AZ31 alloy. A warm deep punching tool setup using heating elements was designed and manufactured to produce the cell phone. Microstructures were observed using optical and scanning electron microscope equipped with EBSD. The textures in as-rolled and as-annealed specimens attribute to different mechanical properties along the various direction.

In this study a series of green thermoset resins have been produced from blending acrylated epoxidized palm oil (AEPO) and unsaturated polyester (UPE). The UPE/AEPO ratio was changed between 90/10 and 70/30 wt%. The curing behavior and morphology of hybrid systems were investigated by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and Scanning electron microscope (SEM). Moreover, studies on mechanical properties were performed by tensile and flexural tests. The results revealed that, these green thermoset resins exhibit thermo mechanical properties comparable to those of commercial unsaturated polyesters.

A biodegradable gradient polymeric membrane based on chitosan (CS) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) has been prepared by microwave technique. The composition and morphology variation along the thickness direction in membrane were measured by elemental analysis and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The tensile properties of CS/PVA gradient membrane were tested. Results showed that the content of either polymer shows a gradient variation along the thickness direction. SEM photographs exhibit that morphology also evolves gradually with the varying percentage ratio of two polymers. As a result of such variations in composition and structure, the mechanical properties on both sides exhibit a significant difference. Compared with conventional isotropic membrane, gradient membrane has improved mechanical properties.

Determination of the mechanical properties of rock containing pre-existing cracks under tension condition is of great significance to understand the failure process of rock in engineering. This paper presents the experimental results of sandstone containing pre-existing cracks under Brazilian compression. The characteristics of the microcracks were analyzed by a scanning electron microscope. The results show that the rock containing pre-existing cracks has an obvious anisotropic characteristic. When the crack inclination is 45°, the rock has the minimum tensile strength and the weakest axial deformation resistance.

Ductility and tensile strength are among the basic mechanical properties of polymers. Generally, it is difficult to enhance the ductility without significantly reducing the tensile strength. In this study, thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) is mixed with 0%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, 10%, and 12.5% polyamide 6 (PA6). The results show that the sample containing 100% TPU has the largest elongation of 690.5%. When PA6 is added, the elongation decreases gradually to 635.0%, 623.1%, 529.5%, 476.0%, 391.3%, and 242.8%, corresponding to 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, 10%, 12.5%, and 100% PA6, respectively. The tensile strengths are 36.7, 33.8, 29.4, 26.5, 23.1, and 24.9 MPa, corresponding to 0%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, 10%, and 12.5% PA6 samples, respectively. The tensile strength decreases gradually when the PA6 content is increased. Notably, the tensile strength of the 12.5% PA6 sample increases compared to the 10% PA6 sample. In addition, the hardness of the TPU/PA blend increases slightly as the PA6 ratio is increased. Finally, scanning electron microscope images demonstrate that PA6 particles act as particles dispersed or dissolved in TPU/PA blends.

The effect of in-situ addition of Bis-(3-triethoxysilylpropyl) tetrasulphide (TESPT) on the curing, tensile and morphological properties of bentonite filled ethylene propylene diene terpolymer (EPDM) composite were investigated. EPDM/Bt compounds, with and without TESPT were prepared using laboratory scale two-roll mill, containing various Bt loading. In the presence of TESPT, the curing time (t90) and scorch time (tS2) of EPDM/Bt composites were decreased whereas, the maximum (MH) and minimum (ML) torques were increased. Tensile properties of EPDM/TESPT/Bt composites were also improved as compared to EPDM/Bt composites. Morphological observation through scanning electron microscope (SEM) proves the enhancement of interfacial adhesion between EPDM and Bt in the presence of TESPT.
