Polymer blending is a very important and widely used method for the modification of polymer materials. However, little attention has been paid to the Semi-aromatic Polyamides with PPS blends. In this article, we investigate the properties of Poly (phenylene sulfide) (PPS) blends with Poly (hexamethylene terephthalamide/hexamethylene hexanediamide) (nylon 6T/66). The structure, mechanical properties of nylon 6T/66 and (PPS) blends were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Thermogravimetric analysis (TG). The results indicate that the blends have good thermal stability and the tensile strength, flexural strength and flexural modulus of the blends are better than the PA6T/66 but worse than that of the PPS.
WC-12 %Co powders were sprayed by high velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) to prepare coatings on carbon steel substrate, which was pretreated by electrospark and grit blast before spraying. The surface coating of WC-Co and the intermediate layer structure were studied by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The adhesion strength of the coating was measured by a scratching tester. Results show that the roughness value of the grit blasting and electrospark strengthened surface were 60~70 μm and 40~50 μm, respectively. The coating pretreated by grit blast and electrospark was dense and was bonded well with the substrate. The heat affected zone of the grit blasted specimen was larger than that of the electrospark pretreated one. The average adhesion strength of the coating pretreated with grit blasting and that with eletrospark were 35.00 N and 12.48 N, respectively. The reasion of the high adhesion strength of the grit blasting coating is discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
