In autumn 1922, the research institute began its work in the rooms of the former Royal College for the Precious Metals Industry. One hundred years have passed since then and the FEM has retained its independence and the same mission today as it had then: the transfer of technology solutions in the fields of materials science and surface technology to industry and in particular to small and medium-sized enterprises. Under the motto ‘On to new heights!’, around 200 guests from politics, business, science and culture celebrated the anniversary of the Schwäbisch Gmünd research institute on the 22nd of September, 2022. Among them, were the national representatives of the European Board of the European Academy of Surface Technology (EAST), who took the opportunity to arrange a workshop in connection with the celebration (Figure 1). The workshop focused on funding tools supporting European networking and research and education cooperation in the field of surface technology and connected areas. Minister-President Winfried Kretschmann congratulated the FEM on its 100th birthday and paid tribute to the life’s work of Institute Director Dr. Andreas Zielonka, who will be taking his well-deserved retirement after 28 successful years as Institute Director. In their greetings, Ministerial Director Michael Kleiner from the BadenWürttemberg Ministry of Economics, Labour and Tourism, Lord Mayor of Schwäbish Gmünd Richard Arnold and District Administrator Dr Joachim Bläse emphasised the FEM’s outstanding importance in the research and development of metallic materials and coatings, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises. The current critical developments showed that the economy in Germany can only be successful if the transfer of innovation and technology from applied research to companies is quick and uncomplicated. It is the task of politics to create the best possible framework conditions for initial research and to recognise the high relevance of non-university, independent research institutions.","PeriodicalId":23251,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of the IMF","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75941050","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Subsequently, the powdered nanocomposites were dried, compacted and sintered to prepare solid pellets. The influence of different amounts (25, 50 and 100 mg L−1) of MWCNT nanofillers in the deposition bath on microstructure, mechanical and anti-corrosion properties of CuNi@MWCNTs nanocomposites was investigated. The microhardness, compressive yield strength and friction coefficient of CuNi@MWCNTs (100 mg L−1) nanocomposites were enhanced by 45.7%, 37.2% and 55.1%, respectively, compared to that of pure CuNi alloy. In addition, the CuNi@MWCNTs nanocomposites obtained also exhibited improved anti-corrosion property in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution at continuous agitation of 150 rpm and 27°C temperature. Based on the research outcomes, this approach for synthesising CuNi@MWCNTs nanocomposites may be proposed for scale-up industrial trials.","PeriodicalId":23251,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of the IMF","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78173552","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is a strong and flexible plastic, which makes it suitable for the preparation of details with a complex shape and leads to optimum design qualities. Metallised plastics combine the properties of dielectrics and metals, thanks to which they find application in many branches of industry. Before the chemical metallisation of samples, they are subjected to pretreatment, which includes a number of operations. Among them the most important are: etching (surface micro-roughening of the surface) and activation (adsorption of catalytically active metal centres on the surface). Prior to performing the etching operation, the surface of the polymer samples is relatively smooth. In order to increase the roughness of the surface and to facilitate the subsequent operations, an additional operation of “swelling” is included, preceding the etching operation. The influence of the swelling operation on the quality of the final electroless Cu and Ni-P coatings has been studied in the present work. The experimental results show that metal coatings with uniform thickness and good adhesion are obtained.","PeriodicalId":23251,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of the IMF","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86704715","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Ti-6Al-4V substrates were anodised under two initial surface conditions: ground and unground. By means of ground samples, the native oxide layer was removed before anodising using conventional mechanical grinding techniques. After anodising, the changes in surface chemistry and topography were evaluated by performing Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Depending on the initial surface finish (ground and unground) and the anodising voltage, different interference colours were obtained on the anodised surfaces. At low anodising voltages, the surfaces displayed relatively compact structures whereas higher voltages resulted in the formation of porosity, cracks, and blisters in both conditions. These changes also influenced the corrosion behaviour. The samples which were ground prior to anodising exhibited higher resistance to corrosion compared to the unground samples.","PeriodicalId":23251,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of the IMF","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74797300","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hydroxyapatite prepared by the plasma spraying method suffers from decomposition, formation of other calcium phosphate phases, weak adhesion to the substrate, and microcrack formation in the coating due to residual stresses initiated by the high temperature of the coating process. To improve the hydroxyapatite coating properties, the Ti-6Al-4V alloy was preheated, and then hydroxyapatite coating took place. The results showed that residual stress in the interface decreased, and adhesion improved by preheating the substrate. However, formation of an amorphous phase on coating was observed, resulting in a higher dissolution rate in the biological environment and weak mechanical properties compared to crystalline hydroxyapatite. Experimental results showed that heat treatment after the coating process decreased the amount of this amorphous phase and heightened the crystallinity of the coating by up to more than 60%.","PeriodicalId":23251,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of the IMF","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78627521","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
