Monel K-500, a nickel–copper based alloy, is a very hard and tough material. Machining of such hard and tough materials always becomes a challenge for industry and this has been resolved by wire electric discharge machining (WEDM), a popular no...
Metal manufacturing processes based on deformation (forging, rolling) result in a fine grain structure with a complex dislocation substructure, which positively influence mechanical properties. Casting and additive manufacturing (powder- or wire-base...
Two Ni–Cu alloys, Monel K500 and FM60, with various contents of Ti, Mn, Al, Fe and C were deposited in the form of plates on a metal base plate using wire arc additive manufacturing technology. Three deposition speeds have been applied: 300, 40...
In this study, Monel 400 is laser heat treated and laser alloyed with boron using diode laser to obtain adequate remelting and to improve the microhardness Single laser tracks were produced on the surface with three different laser beam scanning velo...
This paper presents the influence of production parameters and analysis of ZrC coatings production on Monel®400 substrate. The effects of laser beam power on the microstructure, chemical composition, corrosion resistance and on selected mechanica...
In this study, wear properties of Monel 400 after laser alloying with boron are described. Surfaces were prepared by covering them with boron paste layers of two different thicknesses (100 µm and 200 μm) and re-melting using diode laser. Laser beam p...
This study presents new results on the practical adhesion behavior of a boride layer formed on Monel 400 alloy, developed using the powder-pack boriding (PPBP) at 1223 K for 2, 4, and 6 h of exposure times, obtaining layer thicknesses from approximat...
The spotted alfalfa aphid (Therioaphis trifolii (Monell)) is a known destructive pest that can significantly reduce alfalfa yields. Two differentially up-regulated alfalfa trypsin inhibitors ‘Msti-94’ and ‘Msti-16’ in transcri...
The paper presents the results of studies of microstructure, mechanical and physicochemical properties of surface layers produced by laser modification of the diffusion boron layer on Monel® Alloy 400. The diffusion boron layers were produced at...
