However, the lack of in-depth research on the material removal mechanism of the electrolytic plasma polishing process severely restricts the regulation of the process parameters and polishing effect, leading to optimization and improvement by experimental methods. Firstly, the formation mechanism of passivation film was revealed based on an analysis of the surface morphology and chemical composition of stainless steel. Subsequently, the dissolution mechanism of the passivation film was proposed by analyzing the change in the valence state of the main metal elements on the surface. In addition, the surface enclosure leveling mechanism of electrolytic plasma polishing (EPP) for stainless steel was proposed based on a material removal mechanism model combined with experimental test methods. The results show that EPP significantly reduces the surface roughness of stainless steel, with Ra being reduced from 0.445 µm to 0.070 µm. Metal elements on the anode surface undergo electrochemical oxidation reactions with reactive substances generated by the gas layer discharge, resulting in the formation of passivation layers of metal oxides and hydroxides. The passivation layer complexes with solvent molecules in the energetic plasma state of the gas layer with SO<sub>4</sub><sup>2-</sup> ions, forming complexes that enter the electrolyte. The dynamic balance between the formation and dissolution of the passivation film is the key to achieving a flat surface.

Observations showed that GPC specimens exhibited similar or slightly higher strength values than conventional concrete using PC.

This study evaluates the mechanical reliability and microstructure of Ti64 components fabricated using wire laser additive manufacturing (WLAM) and subsequently joined via tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding. The WLAM process produces refined microstructures with superior mechanical properties by minimizing defects; however, insufficient process optimization may result in a lack of fusion (LOF) and porosity. Microstructural analysis revealed that the WLAM deposits exhibited a fine basket-weave α structure with an average α-lath width of 1.27 ± 0.69 μm, while the TIG-welded region exhibited a coarsened α-lath, reaching 3.02 ± 2.06 μm, which led to a reduction in ductility. Tensile testing demonstrated that the WLAM deposits exhibited superior mechanical properties, with a yield strength of 910 MPa, ultimate tensile strength of 1015 MPa, and elongation of 12.8%, outperforming conventional wrought Ti64 alloys. Conversely, the TIG-welded joints exhibited reduced mechanical properties, with a yield strength of 812 MPa, ultimate tensile strength of 917 MPa, and elongation of 7.5%, primarily attributed to microstructural coarsening in the weld region.

However, traditional methods for assessing wettability, such as contact angle measurements, face significant challenges when applied to heterogeneous or porous solids. This study proposes a rheological methodology as an alternative approach to determine the wettability of granular solids, focusing on bentonite clay modified via sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate adsorption. Aqueous and oily suspensions of bentonite with varying degrees of hydrophobicity were characterized using viscosity measurements, oscillatory amplitude sweeps, and thixotropic recovery tests. For the system under study, a bentonite concentration of 8% ensures optimal rheological behavior. Furthermore, the adsorption isotherm provides a reliable means of determining varying degrees of solid coverage. The results demonstrated clear correlations between surface coverage and rheological behavior, with increasing hydrophobicity leading to reduced viscosity and viscoelasticity in aqueous systems and a shift toward Newtonian flow behavior in oily systems. These findings were supported by traditional contact angle measurements, which confirmed the relationship between surfactant adsorption and enhanced hydrophobicity. The proposed rheological methodology overcomes the limitations of conventional wettability assessments and provides a new approach for characterizing and optimizing the interfacial properties of particulate systems.

One of the key technological processes in the processing of PVC profiles is welding, the quality of which depends on the precise control of parameters such as the temperature, time, and pressure regulating the speed of the welding heads. In modern welding machines, the use of servo drives guarantees the adequate precision and repeatability of the process, which allows better adjustment to technological requirements than in older machines.
