  1. 6. Thermal and Photon Driven Reactions of NO and H2O Adsorbed on Graphite

    Author : Kristina Wettergren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Water; Graphite; Silver Clusters; Sodium; Photodesorption; Nitric Oxide; Particle Plasmons;

    Abstract : The topic of this thesis is the interaction of water (H2O) and nitric oxide (NO) with the graphite (C(0001)) surface. Specifically the effects of coadsorbing metals (Na, Ag) and subjecting the adsorption systems to thermal and photon activation were studied. READ MORE

  2. 7. Tribological and Mechanical Behaviour of Lamellar and Compacted Graphite Irons in Engine Applications

    Author : Rohollah Ghasemi; Anders Professor; Lennart Assistance professor; Bengt-Göran Rosén; Anders Jarfors; Lennart Elmquist; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sliding wear; abrasive wear; graphite lubricating performance; matrix deformation; lamellar graphite iron; high-Si compacted graphite iron;

    Abstract : There has been much discussion about the beneficial uses of lamellar graphite iron in piston rings–cylinder liner systems, where a good combinations of both thermal and tribological properties are essential. The excellent tribological performance of lamellar iron under such sliding conditions is principally associated with lubrication behaviour of the graphite particles which are distributed as lamellas throughout the matrix.

  3. 8. On the solidification of compacted and spheroidal graphite irons

    Author : Björn Domeij; Attila Diószegi; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Compacted graphite iron; Spheroidal graphite iron; Solidification; Microsegregation; Kompaktgrafitjärn; segjärn; stelning; mikrosegregation;

    Abstract : A good understanding of the solidification process of a cast material is essential to understand how the combination of alloy composition and the casting process variables combines into the solid cast component and its performance. The wrong combination may result in poor performance or casting defects. READ MORE

  4. 9. Graphite oxides for preparation of graphene related materials : structure, chemical modification and hydrogen storage properties

    Author : Alexey Klechikov; Alexandr Talyzin; Tamás Szabó; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Graphite oxide; graphene oxide; hydrogen storage; nanomaterials; adsorption; surface area; pore volume; Materials Science; materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : Carbon materials have been studied for hydrogen storage for decades, but they showed too low capacity at ambient temperature compared to target values for practical applications. This thesis includes two parts. First one is fundamental study of graphite oxides (GO) structure and properties. READ MORE

  5. 10. Tribology of Metal-Graphite Composites : A Study of Sliding Electrical Contact Surfaces

    Author : Martina Grandin; Wiklund Urban; Staffan Jacobson; Ulf Jansson; Christian Holzapfel; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tribology; tribofilm; surface analysis; wear; friction; electrical contacts; metal-graphite; contact resistance; cross-section; nanocomposite coating; copper; silver; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot tribomaterial; Engineering Science with specialization in Tribo Materials;

    Abstract : An environmentally sustainable production of electrical power is important for preserving the earth’s natural resources. In order to utilize this power as efficiently as possible, it is of great importance to minimize the losses, for example in sliding electrical contacts. READ MORE
