Study on the Changing Rules of Silty Clay’s Pore Structure under Freeze-Thaw Cycles by Zongfang Chen, Huie Chen, Jinfeng Li, Hui Li, Wenliang Ma

“…This study focused on seasonally frozen silty clay from Changchun, China, and conducted different freeze-thaw cyclic tests on remoulded soil samples, during which both freezing temperature and the number of freeze-thaw cycles were varied. The related data of pore structures under different test conditions were acquired through mercury injection porosimetry (MIP) tests, and the effects of the number of freeze-thaw cycles and freezing temperature on the change of the soil’s pore structure were investigated in detail in combination with fractal theory. …”

Influence of technological factors of melting on the structure and properties of modified heat‑resistant chrome bronzes by F. G. Lovshenko, I. A. Lozikov

“…The phase composition and physico‑mechanical properties of experimental bronzes have been studied.It has been established that the use of a mechanically fused modifying ligature with a high content of alloying component having chromium particles close to micro‑/nanodisperse size with a non‑oxidized surface and a highly effective deoxidizer modifier reduces the temperature and duration of melting, obtaining alloys with a microcrystalline type of structure (2–5 microns) and a complex of physico‑mechanical properties not inferior to, and in terms of heat resistance superior analogues, which is confirmed by the data of production tests at JSC “Belcard” (Grodno, RB) of contact spot welding electrodes made of experimental bronzes, which are 3.8 times more resistant than those used by the plant.…”
