32-37 CONTACTE ELECTRICE CU DENSITATE RIDICATĂ PENTRU CURENŢI INTENŞI PRODUSE PRIN METALURGIA PULBERILOR

ELECTRICAL CONTACTS WITH HIGH DENSITY FOR STRONG CURRENTS, MADE BY POWDER METALLURGY

 

Electrical contacts for strong currents by infiltration after sintering, was not satisfactory because the final density is much higher (11,100 kg/m3) and porosity is much lower (10.85 %). The infiltration after sintering contains: powder mixture preparation (W – 52 mass %, Ni – 2 %, Cu – 46 %, zinc stearate – 0,7 %  – 7 g), homogenization, pressing (4,5 MPa), sintering (730 and 780 oC). The green density is almost constant, with an identical porosity of the first after the end of the process (14,28 %). By infiltration the density increased drastically (10,832 kg/m3), its variations were increased also and porosity decreased (at 10.85 %). The attained density is not sufficient for electrical contacts work (11,100 kg/m3), but it is closer. Way to improve density: pressing, sintering, and repressing (10,700 kg/m3).

30-16 CONTACTE ELECTRICE PENTRU CURENŢI INTENŞI PRODUSE PRIN METALURGIA PULBERILOR

ELECTRICAL CONTACTS FOR STRONG CURRENTS
MADE BY POWDER METALLURGY
It was tested to be produced electrical contacts for strong currents by
infiltration after sintering, because the final density is much higher (11.100
kg/m3) and porosity is much lower (10.85 %). The infiltration after sintering
variant contains the steps: powder mixture preparation (W – 52 mass % – 520 g,
Ni – 2 mass % – 20 g, Cu – 46 mass % – 460 g, zinc stearate – 0,7 mass % – 7
g), homogenization, pressing (4.5 MPa), sintering (730 and 780 oC) and
infiltration (the green part is layed down on an electrocorindon EC 120 bed,
then the Cu green is on top of it, 1100 oC). In this variant the green part density
is almost constant (s = 0.062), with an identical porosity of the first after the end
of the process (14,28 %). By infiltration the density increased drastically (at
10,832 kg/m3), but its variations were increased also (s = 0.174) and porosity
decreased (at 10.85 %). The attained density is not sufficient for electrical
contacts work (11,100 kg/m3), but it is closer. The final composition of the
electrical contact was: W – 48.69 mass %, Ni – 1. 87 mass % and Cu – 49.44
mass %.

27-23 ASPECTE PRIVIND PRELUCRAREA OSHIBANA A FLORILOR DIN CATEGORIA ERYTHRONIUM DENS CANIS

ASPECTS REGARDING OSHIBANA PROCESSING OF
ERYTHRONIUM DENS CANIS FLOWERS
Erythronium Dens Canis is a spring flower with high visual impact due to its petal disposing as a radiate crown in the early stage and as an open dog mouth in the later stage. The visual effect is enhanced by stamina position in the centre of the flower. Such nice flower worth’s to be processed by Oshibana method. We collect several flowers from Faget Woods nearby Cluj Napoca, Romania, in several development stages: bloom, early opened flower and mature opened (late) stage. All were pressed according to the best option: large numbers of paper pages between flower layers and average loading of around 3 kg uniform distributed over an A4 page format. The optical microscopy evidence a good pressing of the petals with a good cohesion among cellular walls. The final test shows that the Erytronium Dens Canis pressed flowers are suitable for Osibana compositions.

25-17 UNELE ASPECTE INGINEREŞTI PRIVIND ARTA OSHIBANA

SOME ENGINEERING ASPECTS REGARDING
OSHIBANA ART
The pressed flower art, Oshibana, was developed by japans samurai
centuries ago. This art found followers in Romania, some of them being
Oshibana Maestro Artist. Inspired by them we found that some basic
engineering aspects are beyond the success in the flower pressing process.
The authors of this paper aim to practice these engineering aspects on the
vegetal material to obtain suitable Oshibana parts. We use petals from the
following flowers: yellow rose (Rosa L.), red carnation (Dianthus Caryophyllus),
and violet crocus (Crocus Vernus). The resulted pressed petals were
investigated with transmitted light optical microscope. The petals fibber network
was observed as well as the pigment alveoli. The petal cohesion under
pressure is assured by the cellulose fibres meanwhile the intracellular liquid is
absorbed by the press paper pages, finally the petal cells become flat and dry.
The pigment alveoli were distinct observed for all samples. Their diameter is
significantly increased under pressure ranging from 30 – 40 μm. The flattening
tendency is prone at Crocus and Dianthus and less intense at the Rose petal.

17-39 INVESTIGAłII STRUCTURALE PRIVIND COMPOZIłIA ANTONINIENILOR ROMANI SUBERAłI

STRUCTURAL INVESTIGATION CONCERNING THE
COMPOSITION OF FOUREE ROMAN ANTONINIAN
The antoninians were issued for the first time by Emperor Caracalla in
year 215 as a monetary reform. It was minted as double denar denomination in
order to preserve the silver title. The silver title and coin weight decrease soon
due to inflation. The fouree antoninians were issued at large scale by Emperor
Aurelianus featuring on the coin obverse the XXI inscription. The structural
investigation performed on some fouree antoninians issued by Aurelian,
Probus, and Diocletian, shows copper as coin core and the related corrosion
oxides compounds related to the loss of the silver foil due to the ground
corrosion. The calculation prove that the foil silver amount represents one part
silver to twenty copper parts, meaning that inscription XXI on the coin obverse
is an official silver title mark. The continuous decaying of antoninians quality
lead to a monetary reform after Diocletian reign.

MINERALS DISTRIBUTION IN COAL FLY ASH FROM
PAROSENI POWER PLANT
Large ash dumps, formed in time, are a high harmful potential for
environment. Our study points out the mineral contained in fly ash resulted at
Paroşeni power plant. The X-ray diffraction analysis reveals large amounts of
quartz, mullet, potasic feldspar, Seri cite and hydrated hematite. Microscopy
investigation prove that quartz particles keeps their initial equiaxial shape
meanwhile higher amount of mullet and hematite feature spherical shape due
to their melting during coal burning. The quantitative microscopic analysis
reveals three particles domains: the larger one having the average diameter of
100 μm, the intermediary one having the average diameter of 44 μm, and the
finest one having the average diameter of 23 μm. Quartz particles are often
found in the larger particle range, hematite hydrate and mullet are often found
in the intermediary particle range, meanwhile feldspar and Seri cite are situated
mainly in the finest particle range.

The performed investigations prove that applying the Vegard Law for
Cr-Fe binary alloys result values of crystal parameter in good concordance with
experimental results. This makes Vegard Law a useful theoretical tool for
estimation of crystal properties of further alloys. The viability of this law could
not be proved for ternary systems. We mention that Al and Co were introduced
as ternary component after 16 hours of previous milling of Fe-Cr powder
composition. The adding of ternary element such Al or Co at the beginning of
milling experiment is an open path for further investigation of the applicability of
Vegard Law to the ternary systems.

MORPHOLOGICAL AND STRUCTURAL ASPECTS
OF Fe50Ni50 POWDER MIXTURE SUBJECTED TO
MECHANICAL ALLOYING
The mechanical alloying experiment was performed inti a planetary
ball mill using elemental Fe and Ni powders mixed together at 50 wt. % ratio.
Powder samples were taken out after 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 48, and 64 hours of
milling. These samples were subjected to X-ray diffraction, sieving analysis,
and optical microscopy inspection. The results allow us to conclude that Ni
presents a ductile behaviour meanwhile Fe acts as a brittle component which
conducts to the forming of mixed particles of Ni embedding smaller Fe one. The
particle structure is more refined progressive with the milling time. Finally, the
solid solution of Fe in Ni FCC is completely formed at 64 hours of milling.

21-30 ASPECTE PRIVIND COMPOZIŢIA PATINEI UNOR MONEDE ROMANE DE BRONZ

ASPECTS CONCERNING THE COMPOSITION OF SOME
BRONZE ROMAN COINS PATINA
The earlier roman bronze denominations, such as and sestertius, were
stroked in bronze (Cu Sn binary alloy). The coinage title decreases on the later
Roman Empire, silver denarius were finally replaced by the copper follies. The
X-ray diffraction analysis of such coins surface allows us to identify the rust
compounds. We found that on the bronze coins surface are developed mainly
copper oxides, hydroxides as well as tin oxide. We also reach a complex CuSn
hydroxide which gives a greenish yellow shade of the patina. The green hue of
patina is significant enhanced by the average of copper carbonate content also
found as a patina component. The copper foils feature only copper oxides and
hydroxides without carbonates. It proves that the investigated follies laid in a
more inert soil (e.g. quartz sand). The colour of patina is dark brown to shiny
black due to the refined mixture of copper oxides and hydroxide. Some quartz
traces were identified on the coins surfaces as residues of soil. The performed
analysis gives important data useful for modern fake’s identification.

The mechanical alloying experiments were performed on a high
energy planetary ball mill. Four vials were used for powder mixtures milling.
The milling charge contains 46 steel balls having 15 mm average diameter and
100 g powder mixture. It corresponds to a charge level of ½ of the vial volume
and represents a 8:1 ball/powder ratio. The powder mixtures: Fe60Ni40, Fe50Ni50,
Fe40Ni60, were milled for 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 48 şi 64 hours. At each milling time
were taken samples for analysis (5 grams). The X-ray diffraction analysis
reveals that after 8 hours of milling the Fe peaks disappear and the Ni phase is
featured in all powder mass. The calculated crystal parameters prove that the
mechanical alloying process induces Ni structure for all powder mixtures after 8
hours of milling resulting a substitution solid solution where some Ni atoms
were replaced with Fe ones.
