In this study, friction and wear properties of flame sprayed specimens and hard Cr plating specimens were tested, and their properties were compared each other in dry and lubrication condition. Ni-Cr powder and steel powder were used as the spray powder and sprayed on the steel(S45C) substrate by flame sprayed method. Each wear surface was observed with SEM after friction and wear test. The friction coefficient of the as-forged steel specimens was the highest among surface treatment specimens, and the other specimens appeared in order as follows ; hard Cr-plating specimens, Ni-Cr powder sprayed specimens, steel powder sprayed specimens. Comparing the wear volumes in dry condition, as forged steel specimens appeared the greatest wear volume, and the other specimens appeared wear volume in order as follows ; Ni-Cr powder sprayed specimens, steel powder sprayed specimens, hard Cr plating specimens. In friction and wear test, the hard Cr plating specimens were worn by the abrasive phenomenon, involving the cracks. The wear volume of steel powder sprayed specimens was lower than that of Ni-Cr powder sprayed specimens. Comparing the tensile strength of both sprayed coating layers, the steel powder sprayed coating layer was better than Ni-Cr powder sprayed coating layer.

The recent rise in applications of thermoelectric materials has attracted interest in studies toward the fabrication of thermoelectric materials using mass production techniques. In this study, we successfully fabricate n-type $Bi_2Te_{2.7}Se_{0.3}$ material by a combination of mass production powder metallurgy techniques, gas atomization, and spark plasma sintering. In addition, to examine the effects of hydrogen reduction in the microstructure, the thermoelectric and mechanical properties are measured and analyzed. Here, almost 60% of the oxygen content of the powder are eliminated after hydrogen reduction for 4 h at $360^{\circ}C$. Micrographs of the powder show that the reduced powder had a comparatively clean surface and larger grain sizes than unreduced powder. The density of the consolidated bulk using as-atomized powder and reduced atomized powder exceeds 99%. The thermoelectric power factor of the sample prepared by reduction of powder is 20% better than that of the sample prepared using unreduced powder.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the influences on mechanical properties of motor pistons manufactured by casting, conventional forging and powder forging, using the comparison of characteristics like microstructure, hardness, tensile strength, and elongation. To form conventional forging piston, the experiment of visioplasticity was performed. As the model material, plasticine was used. To form powder forging piston, the shape of piston was simplified as simple cup shape. Material properties like workability, density variation before and after forging, and strain loci of material during forging were investigated. Powder forging and conventional forging technologies were effective to gain dense microstructure. In powder forging, distribution of such dense microstructuer was uniform. For hardness, pistons from powder forging and conventional forging technologies were much better than that from casting. For tensile strength and elongation, powder forging and conventional forging technologies were also advantageous.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of Yanggaeng with different amounts (in ratios of 0, 1, 2, 4% to the total materials) of tumeric powders. The proximate composition and total polyphenol content, antioxidant activities, Hunter's color values, pH, Brix and sensory properties of tumeric hanging were examined. Results of analysis of the proximate composition analysis showed that ash content was increased significantly by adding turmeric powder and the more content of turmeric powder. The higher content of tumeric powder, the higher total polyphenol and total flavonoids contents. Brix and brightness were lowered and yellowness was increased. The sensory properties were highly rated for the control without turmeric powder in four organoleptic (sensory) properties (taste, texture, odor, acceptance) except color. The group with-1% addition of turmeric powder was highly rated in the second place.

The use of the nickel free, high nitrogen stainless steel powder and nitriding during sintering of iron based materials have been shown as an alternative way to the conventional PM stainless steels containing nickel. Nitrogen as an alloying element for iron improves in an effective way the properties of sintered alloyed steels. The powder metallurgy route is a suitable way to introduce nitrogen into these alloys and, in particular, to produce high nitrogen (close to the solubility limit) stainless steels. The paper presents and discusses the nitriding behavior of nickel-free stainless steels produced by powder metallurgy method. Alloyed melt was atomized by nitrogen and in this way nitrogen was introduced into the powder. Further nitriding occurred during sintering in a nitrogen atmosphere. For comparison, compacts having the same composition as an alloyed powder were produced from elemental powders mixture. Sintering-nitriding behaviour of investigated materials has been controlled by dilatometry, chemical and X-Ray phase analysis and metallography. Mechanical properties of sintered compacts were also measured.

Graphene oxide (GO) powder processed by Hummer's method is mixed with p-type $Bi_2Te_3$ based thermoelectric materials by a high-energy ball milling process. The synthesized GO-dispersed p-type $Bi_2Te_3$ composite powder has a composition of $Bi_{0.5}Sb_{1.5}Te_3$ (BSbT), and the powder is consolidated into composites with different contents of GO powder by using the spark plasma sintering (SPS) process. It is found that the addition of GO powder significantly decreases the thermal conductivity of the pure BSbT material through active phonon scattering at the newly formed interfaces. In addition, the electrical properties of the GO/BSbT composites are degraded by the addition of GO powder except in the case of the 0.1 wt% GO/BSbT composite. It is found that defects on the surface of GO powder hinder the electrical transport properties. As a result, the maximum thermoelectric performance (ZT value of 0.91) is achieved from the 0.1% GO/BSbT composite at 398 K. These results indicate that introducing GO powder into thermoelectric materials is a promising method to achieve enhanced thermoelectric performance due to the reduction in thermal conductivity.

This research was conducted to investigate the physical properties of Hanji made using maize, konyaku, and wheat powders at various concentrations. Regardless of the starch types, the most effective concentration to increase the physical properties of Hanji was 2 percent. They were significantly improved even at the treatment conditions of 0.1 percent. All the Hanji treated showed the increase of the breaking length, bust index, and tear index and the decrease of the folding number. The strength properties of the Hanji treated were markedly improved at 8 to 10 percent weight increase. The highest mechanical properties were found in the Hanji treated with konyaku powder.

A new mathematical simulation technique for physico-mechanical properties of multi-component powder materials is proposed in this paper. The main advantage of the technique is that finite elements representing different components are placed into a common mesh and may exchange their properties. The output data are properties of material after sintering. The technique allows us to investigate the influence of each component of a material on the properties and distribution of properties inside the sample. The comparative analysis of materials with different compositions is based on simulation results that are well concordant with the results of the laboratory experiments.
