  1. 1. Investigation of the Microstructure of Plastically Deformed Cemented Carbide

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Felicia Larsson; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : During machining operation, cemented carbide tools are exposed to high loads and temperatures, which eventually leads to plastic deformation of the tool material. The aim of this work was to investigate if the microstructures of creep deformed micro grain cemented carbides can be linked to alloying elements and mechanical properties. READ MORE

  2. 2. Tuning Photovoltaic Properties of Two-dimensional Molybdenum Disulfide by Alloying: An ab initio study

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Mochen Li; [2023]
    Keywords : Photovoltaic; Molybdenum disulfide; Absorption coefficient; ab initio material design; Fotovoltaisk; Molybdendisulfid; Absorptionskoefficient; ab initio materialdesign;

    Abstract : Addressing the urgent need for innovative energy solutions amidst increasing environmental concerns, the focus on photovoltaic solar cells is intensifying. Currently limited by the Shockley-Queisser limit, conventional silicon-based solar cells offer a maximum power conversion efficiency of 32%. READ MORE

  3. 3. Thermodynamic modelling of the copper-zinc-tin ternary system : A study towards lead-free brass

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Caterina Radogna; [2023]
    Keywords : Brass-based alloys; Lead-free brass; Calphad; Thermo-Calc; Thermodynamic description; Mässingsbaserade legeringar; Blyfri mässing; Calphad; Thermo-Calc; Termodynamisk beskrivning;

    Abstract : Lead (Pb) is frequently used as an alloying element in brass to enhance machinability and castability. However, this element poses a significant risk to human health and the environment. The 2021 revision of the Drinking Water Directive imposed stricter limits on Pb content in brass, encouraging the development of lead-free brass. READ MORE

  4. 4. Simulation and Experimental Based Hardenability Evaluation of Chromium Alloyed Powder Metal Steels

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Atharva Kotasthane; [2023]
    Keywords : Hardenability; Martensite; Simulation Modelling; Microhardness; Microstructure; Härdbarhet; Martensit; Simuleringsmodellering; Mikrohårdhet; Mikrostruktur;

    Abstract : Powder metallurgy is a branch of metal forming technology where metal powders are used to manufacture parts and components. It is a flexible and economical technique for manufacturing complicated shapes. This present work focuses on press and sinter technology and forms a part of Höganäs’s efforts of modelling hardenability through quenching. READ MORE

  5. 5. The Effect of Alternative Tungsten Carbide Grain Size Distribution on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties in Cemented Carbides

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Filip Ivarsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Cemented Carbides; WC Grain Size Distribution; Mechanical Properties; Microstructure Analysis; Hårdmetall; WC Kornstorleksfördelning; Mekaniska Egenskaper; Mikrostruktur Analys;

    Abstract : In the constant pursuit of better-performing cemented carbides, recent studies suggest that a combination of better hardness and toughness can be obtained by changing its WC grain size distribution. As the area is still rather unexplored, this  thesis  aims  to  broaden  the  knowledge  and  answer  whether mechanical properties can be changed by changing the WC grain size distribution, in the context of mining drill bit inserts.
