The unsatisfactory wear resistance and lubrication performance of CoCrNi multi-principal
elements alloys (MPEAs) have emerged as critical challenges, impeding their extensive …

In situ composite manufacture is an approach to improve interfacial adhesion between
matrix and reinforcements, in which reinforcements are synthesized along composite …

This first regional issue published in STMP highlights the potential and importance of the
research carried out in Latin America regarding surface engineering and tribology. In order …

Powder injection moulding and sintering were used to obtain iron-based self-lubricating
composites in which SiC particles were used as precursors to generate graphite nodules …

In this work, new carbide-derived carbons (CDCs) generated by the solid-state reaction
between Fe and B 4 C were produced as nanostructured powders. Thermodynamic …

Densification improves Machinability of sintered alloys. Technically critical processes
involved in Liquid-Phase-Sintering of Fe-Cu-C alloys retain some porosity therein, in spite of …

Silicon carbide can be used as a source of alloying silicon and carbon elements for making
sintered composites. The addition of 4 wt.% silicon carbide to iron or iron-based powders …

In this study, powder technology was used to obtain Fe-SiC composites in which SiC
particles act as precursors to generate a large amount of turbostratic graphite dispersed in …

The influence of carbon content in the range of 0.01–0.3 wt.% on microstructure, hardness
and tensile property of sintered Fe-Cr-Mo steels was investigated. The sintered Fe–3.0 wt …

Miedema's model is a semi-empirical model which predicts the formation enthalpy of
intermetallic compounds, solid solutions, and amorphous phases. In this work, the …
