The influence of irradiation-induced damage on the interfacial shear strength of Cu-Nb interfaces was characterized via compression of nanolaminate pillars performed in situ in a transmission electron microscope. Chemical mixing and interfacial roughening during MeV Kr ion irradiation leads to increased interfacial shear strength by as much as 60%, from 0.6 GPa for the as-deposited material to 0.95 GPa for samples irradiated at liquid nitrogen temperature. The increase in interfacial shear strength was most pronounced at low temperatures (similar to-196 degrees C), but it is still significant at similar to 300 degrees C. This observation was correlated with increased chemical mixing at lower temperatures, as determined from compositional profiles characterized by energy-dispersive spectroscopy.

Effect of synthesis parameters on the surface morphology of conducting polypyrrole films
Kaynak, A (1997-03-01)
Surface morphology of polypyrrole films was investigated by using atomic force and scanning electron microscopy techniques. Synthesis parameters such as dopant concentration and synthesis time and subsequent heat treatment were found to affect the surface morphology of electrochemically synthesized polypyrrole films. Mean height, root-mean-square roughness, and nodule diameter increased with increasing dopant concentration and synthesis time. Lightly doped, semiconducting films had smoother surface morpholo...
EFFECT OF BUILD DIRECTION ON CRACK GROWTH BEHAVIOR OF Ti6Al4V ALLOY MANUFACTURED BY ELECTRON BEAM MELTING
Çalık, Feyziye; Gürbüz, Rıza; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2022-12-01)
The effects of build orientation on the crack propagation behavior of Ti6Al4V fabricated by elecron beam melting which is one of metal additive manufacturing methods were examined in this study. Firstly, Ti6Al4V blocks were manufactured at different building angles (00,300,450and 900) regarding as base plane using EBM. Subsequently, test specimens were machined from these blocks in compliance with ASTM E8, ASTM E399 and ASTM E647 standards for tensile, fracture toughness and crack growth rate specimen...

The effect of rare-earth (Sm) microalloying on the thermal stability and phase selection along with the effect of nanocrystallization on the mechanical properties of amorphous melt-spun ribbons of Zr50Cu40Al10, Zr49Cu39.2Al9.8Sm2 and Zr48Cu38.4Al9.6Sm4 alloys were investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Vickers and nanoindentation hardness tests and micropillar compression analysis. XRD and TEM analyses showed that all samp...
Effect of surface treatment on electrical conductivity of carbon black filled conductive polymer composites
Koysuren, Ozcan; Yesil, Sertan; Bayram, Göknur (Wiley, 2007-06-05)
Two different types of surface modifiers, 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and formamide, were applied to carbon black (CB) particles to lower electrical resistivity of polymer composites prepared by treated CB. Two different matrices, low-density polyethylene and nylon 6, were chosen to compound with surface modified CB. Surface energy of CB was increased by adding amine or amide functional groups during surface treatment of CB. According to electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA), chemical modifica...
Effect of carbon nanotube surface treatment on the morphology, electrical, and mechanical properties of the microfiber-reinforced polyethylene/poly(ethylene terephthalate)/carbon nanotube composites
Yesil, Sertan; Bayram, Göknur (2013-01-15)
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of carbon nanotube (CNT) chemical properties, CNT content, and molding temperature on the morphology, electrical, and mechanical properties of the microfiber-reinforced polymer composites. These composites were prepared by extrusion and hot stretching the poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET)/CNT phase in high density polyethylene (HDPE) matrix. Surfaces of the CNT were modified by purification with strong acid mixture (HNO3 : H2SO4 mixture 1 : 1 by volume) f...
