    This paper investigated the intermetallic compound (IMC) layer that formed in Sn-0.7Cu-0.05Ni+1wt.% TiO2 (SCNT) composite solder paste added with reinforcement (TiO2) particles. Besides, the growth of the IMC layer during subsequent aging at temperature of 75 °C, 125 °C and 150 °C also being studied. Scanning electron microscopy was used to observe the IMC growth and to measure the thickness of IMC layer. The interfacial IMC layer has been suppressed whereas the activation energy value of the composite solder paste was high (37.35 kJ/mol) which in turn improved the thermal stability of the IMC layer. Results also show the IMC formed at bulk solder microstructure of SCNT solder paste composite was refined. The presence of TiO2 particles has become the obstacle for the Cu atom diffusion from the substrate to the solder and Sn atom from the solder, thus, successful for the suppression of the IMC layer.

    The powder metallurgy Al has been widely used in the heavy industry, especially in precision technology. Unfortunately, these new materials are problematic in powder metallurgy production and corrosion problems. This research paper aims to study the influence of Mg contents (10, 25, 50, 75, and 90) wt% on microstructure and corrosion behavior on Al–Mg alloy by using powder metallurgy techniques. Al–Mg powder was mixed using a rotation mill with a rotation speed of 120 rpm for 30 min. Then, the mixed powders were compacted at a pressure of 150 MPa. Sintering was done in an argon-controlled atmosphere at a temperature of 500 Â°C. An optical microscope was used to observe the microstructure of sintered sample; meanwhile, X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to analyze phase identification. A potentiostat was used to study the corrosion behavior of sintered Al–Mg alloy. The results revealed that Al–90 wt% Mg gives a high corrosion rate.

    Effect of micro-texture on the corrosion resistance of alumina-titania coated mild steel was investigated. The micro-texture was fabricated on the coating surface via laser surface texturing technique. Tafel extrapolation and immersion test was conducted to measure the corrosion resistance and corrosion mechanism of the coating in 3.5% NaCl solution. The results indicated that the micro-texture contributes to a significant improvement of corrosion resistance due to the formation small volume of air trapped in the micro-grooves, which resist the penetration of corrosive ions and reduce the area of solid-liquid interface. The WCA indicated that the textured surface had low wettability. The SEM analysis showed the occurrence of uniform corrosion. The analysis of EDS revealed that there was formation of corrosion product at the coating-substrate interface. In short, the resistance towards corrosion was increased up to 73% indicating that the resistivity of the coating against corrosion was improved by engraving the micro-texture on its surface.

    Anodic aluminium oxide (AAO) thin film electrodes were synthesized by using a single step anodizing method in 15 °C of 0.3 M oxalic acid at five different anodizing voltage ranging from 20 V to 60 V, respectively. The effect of anodizing voltage to the AAO dimensional properties were about to be investigated. Morphological observations were all done by FESEM where the measurements and calculation were made by using ImageJ and formulas. To ensure that the pore sizes were totally depended on the anodizing voltage, etching process were done at constant duration for all samples. The correlation between all AAO dimensional properties like pores size, interpore distance, wall thickness, pore density, percentage of porosity and nanoporous oxide thickness were presented in a linear graph.

    In order to generate a nanoporous oxide film, stainless steel 304L is anodized using an alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) source in an ethylene glycol solution containing ammonium fluoride, NH4F, and water, H2O. This study focuses on the differences between AC and DC anodizing in terms of current density versus time response, thickness, and depth of the oxide film formed on the anodized specimens, surface roughness, and element composition of the specimens because there is limited study on AC anodizing of stainless steel. In 0.5% of 0.3M NH4F and 3% H2O in ethylene glycol solution, the AC and DC anodizing are conducted for 30 minutes at voltages ranging from 30V to 50V and 21.2 V to 35.4 V, respectively. The current density versus time response revealed that AC anodizing produced more current density than DC anodizing. As for the thickness and depth of the generated oxide films, only the specimens that have been anodized in AC indicated an increase in these films, whereas specimens that have been anodized in DC showed the metal dissolving as the specimens degraded. The surface roughness of AC anodized specimens reduced with increasing anodizing voltage, whereas DC anodized specimens increased with increasing anodizing voltage. The element composition of the anodized specimens revealed that the mass percentage of oxygen, O element is higher for AC anodized specimens compared to DC specimens. This suggests that AC anodizing on stainless steel might offer important advantages and should be further researched.

    The effect of AC anodizing on the formation of oxide film on stainless steel 304L (SS304L) surfaces and its influence on the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) were studied in this study. The SS304L specimens were prepared before being anodized for 30 minutes at various voltages (range from 10 V to 50 V) using an AC power supply at room temperature. The surface morphology is studied using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and 3D profilometer. A potentiostat is used to run linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) and Tafel analysis for the HER characterization. The result recorded the highest thickness of 9273.45 nm at 40 V anodizing voltage and the lowest surface roughness of 837.16 nm recorded at 50 V. The linear sweep polarization test solution exhibited the lowest overpotential at 50 V, 398.3 mV and a Tafel slope of 196 mVdec-1. These findings provide insight on the possibility of AC anodizing for improving the surface characteristics of SS304L for use in energy conversion applications.

    Simple chemical conversion has been employed in order to coat calcium phosphates (CaP) on magnesium (Mg) substrate. The Mg substrates were coated in a primary phosphating bath before secondary treated with an alkaline solution of sodium hydroxide, NaOH. In this paper, the fabrication process of the coatings via simple chemical conversion method were discussed and evaluated in terms of electrochemical, phase analysis, and microstructural aspects. XRD diffractogram confirmed that the primary coating composed of dicalcium phosphate dehydrates (DCPD) and after the secondary treatment, the DCPD transformed into more stable hydroxyapatite, HA. The microstructural observations show that the coating is composed of flower-like shape crystallites. Besides, the potential-time curves of both primary and secondary coated samples suggests that the minimum deposition time for better coverage of the coatings is 30 minutes.

    Aluminum alloy is a material that is frequently used in the aerospace and transportation industries due to its high mechanical and corrosion resistance qualities. Unfortunately, aluminum alloys are prone to corrosion, limiting their application in some harsh situations such as when submerged in aqueous environments. The purpose of this study is to investigate how anodizing can increase the corrosion resistance of 6061 Aluminum alloy. The anodizing process was carried out using two different parameters which are voltage (5V, 10V, 15V) and electrolyte sulfuric acid (H2SO4) concentration (0.3M, 0.5M) for 1 hour. The anodized samples were performed using several analyses such as X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, morphology analysis, and corrosion test. From this study, it is found that the difference in anodizing parameters affects the corrosion resistance of the samples. Sample anodized at 15V, 0.5M gives the best corrosion resistance.

    Resistance spot welding (RSW) is one of the most effective welding methods for titanium alloys, in particular Ti-6Al-4V. Ti-6Al-4V is one of the most used materials with its good ductility, high strength, weldability, corrosion resistance, and heat resistance. RSW and Ti-6Al-4V materials are often widely used in industrial manufacturing, particularly in automotive and aerospace industries. To understand the phenomenon of resistance spot weld quality, the physical and mechanical properties of Ti-6Al-4V spot weld are essential to be analyzed. In this study, an experiment was conducted using the Taguchi L9 method to find out the optimum level of the weld joint strength. The given optimum level sample was analyzed to study the most significant affecting RSW parameter, the failure mode, the weld nugget microstructure, and hardness values. The high heat input significantly affect the weld nugget temperature to reach and beyond the Î’-transus temperature. It led to an increase in the weld nugget diameter and the indentation depth. The expulsion appeared in the high heat input and decreased the weld nugget strength. It was caused by the molten material ejection in the fusion zone. The combination of high heat input and rapid air cooling at room temperature generated a martensite microstructure in the fusion zone. It increased the hardness, strength, and brittleness but decreased the ductility.

    AZ 80 Magnesium (Mg) alloy (AZ80) is the lightest structural metallic materials with good mechanical properties. However, Mg AZ80 has drawbacks which result in poor ductility and low strength where applications of Mg alloy have been restricted. The AZ80 has high aluminium content can cause the precipitation of ß-phase which is Mg17Al12 in Mg-Al alloy. It can affect the mechanical properties such as poor strengthening. This paper was discussed the effect of aging time on microstructure and hardness value of AZ80. The AZ80 samples were cut to 1cm × 1cm. Samples heat treated at 360 C for one-hour quenching in water. Then, samples aged at 170 C with different aging times (2 to 8 hours) with same quench. Optical Microscope (OM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Vickers Microhardness machine were used to analyse the samples. As the results showed ß-Mg17Al12 phase was discontinuously distributed along the grain boundary throughout solid solution treatment. The ß-Mg17Al12 phase did not fully dissolve into the α-Mg phase and distributed along the grain boundary. The results showed that sample after 2 hours aging time with highest hardness value 62.5 HV is the optimum sample.
