In this research we have studied the absorbance of some zinc alloys. These alloys were
manufactured in the local market, and these alloys can be used as absorber plate in the
manufacture of solar collectors. We conducted this study in the laborator
y, first (using
tow light sources, 100W and 30 W), and Second in the external medium using direct solar
radiation. Our research provides important information that could be used in improving the
efficiency of solar collectors using absorbent surfaces that has a higher absorbency.
We have also studied the relationship between the absorbance and the atomic number of
the studied alloys. This study showed that the absorbed energy by these metals increase
with their atomic laboratory number Z.
In this research, specimens of aluminum alloy 6061 were
received, and chemical composition was investigated. After
that solution heat treatment was applied on it at 530°C, a
section of these specimens was quenched in water and anther
quenched in
oil, and two sections were aged at 160°C for
times (1,3,5 h), and thus obtained six samples differ in
condition of heat treatment in addition to as received
specimen.
Direct high sensitive spectrophotometric method for determination
Ni(III) has been suggested . proposed method is based on the
formation of red- win colored complex between Ni(III) and DMG
reagent in strong alkaline media of NaOH ,pH=12.5.the formed
complex absorbed electromagnetic radiation at 465nm .
The current research aims to study the effect of chemical disinfectants
on the roughness and hardness of the surface of the cobalt chrome
alloy, where the use of cleansing Sodium hypochlorite 5.25%
and distilled water (the control sample), Been ma
nufacturing 20
structure metal of the alloy cobalt chrome, each group containing 10
samples and was doused with samples intravenously cleared, then it
was measured surface roughness using an Atomic force microscope, and
measuring the hardness of the surface using a Vickers measuring device
hardness.
In This research a surface hardening process by Ni coating and
subsequent diffusion heat treatments was studied at Al7075 alloy.
Nickel coatings with different thickness were obtained.
In this work, the processing of aluminum alloys - copper, which
added amounts of copper to aluminum in different parentages (2.5-
4-4.5%) so as not to exceed the limit of saturation Aluminum 6 %(

The surface hardening by shot peening (S-P) is one of the processes used to increase the hardness of aluminum alloys surface. This step tends to increase of the fatigue strength
for this alloy because of the creation of compressive residual surface
stress layer, which resists the initiation and propagation of cracks. But in some cases, the opposite of this effect occurs, the fatigue strength decreases because of the initiation of surface micro cracks. The influence of this process on the fatigue strength of two aluminum alloys 1050A and 2219 was investigated. (S- N) curves are determined for two surface conditions produced by shot peening and uppeening. As well as the alloys were studied under loading programme low-high & high-low. This paper deduced that the fatigue life of aluminum alloy 1050A was reduced by a percentage of (23%) because shot peening caused high surface roughness, and consequently high local stress, but the fatigue life of aluminum alloy 2219 was increased by about (38%) because the shot peening caused the creation of compressive residual stresses.
Aluminum alloys have got extreme industrial importance since 19th century
until now. They enter into several light and heavy industries. aluminum is
hardened by impurity due to industrial application. In this study, aluminumcupper
alloys (with 0.5
% Mg) were prepared, where cupper amount was added
to aluminum in different percentages (2.5%,4%,4.5%) ,no overtaking degree of
saturation 6% of the weight of cupper. After adding definite percentage of
cupper to aluminum, the compounds are fusioned for complete blending, where
cupper atoms diffuse into aluminum. Samples are infusioned by definite
methods and circumstances. The prepared alloys were thermally treated during
8-30 hours for hardening. In this research we will concentrate on the influence
of cupper content on hardening of aluminum and other basic conditions, which
are needed to obtain higher hardness for aluminum alloys.
