The paper describes the behavior of welded joints of NN-70 steel in the presence of a cracking error when bending with impact force. The experiment was performed with three groups of test tubes, depending on the cut-off point of the test tube notch with the tip of the crack in BM, in WM and in HAZ. The test method used was conducted on the instrume...

This work aims at the development of low-carbon steel SAE 1006 through the microalloying addition of boron. Boron as alloying element is added in small amount, but it has significant effect on changes of properties of this kind of steel. The research is based on mechanical and microstructural testing of final product (wire) from the aspect of the i...

Steel 67SiCr5 is a alloyed carbon steel usually used for production of springs. It is used for load bearing springs, ring-shape springs, spiral springs, anti vibration springs etc. Springs steels are usually distribute in annealed or hardened and tempered state. Heat treating could be performed before or after springs forming. In this article, the ...

The precipitation of sigma (σ) phase in austenitic stainless steels is a significant subject of many investigations. Exposure of these steels to elevated temperatures (from 600 °C to 900 °C) results in precipitation of σ phase (transformation product from delta (δ) ferrite) which is one of the main reasons for the deterior...

In this paper, the influence of Na2SiO3 /NaOH ratio on the compressive strength of fly ash - based geopolymers was tested. The fly ash from thermal power plant Stanari near Doboj, BiH is used.The ratio of alkali activator to fly ash (AA / FA ratio) was constant in all samples and it was 0.8. A 12M NaOH solution was used. The heat treatment temperat...

Mostly used food packing are: paper, cartoon, plastics, glass, metals and multilayer materials. The plastics and paper/cartoon make about 70% of all food packing. These two have the biggest migration potential. The use of plastics is regulated by specific EU rules, but it is not yet the same about the use of paper packing. In order to ensure health...

In this paper, the results of changes in pH and conductivity values of the solutions during the rinsing of the adsorbent, as well as during the adsorption of copper ions were presented. Prior to the adsorption experiments, the sunflower heads were rinsed with 200 cm3 of distilled water in ten equal portions (20 cm3 each). After each water volume pa...
