Temperature-Dependent Viscoelastic Response of Magnetorheological Grease with Varying Particle Shapes
Abstract: This study examines the effect of temperatures on the magnetic and rheological properties of magnetorheological greases (MRGs) comprised of different particle shapes, under oscillatory shear mode test. Two samples were prepared with 70 wt.% flake-shaped electrolytic iron particles (EIP) and spherical carbonyl iron particles (CIP) which dispersed in 30 wt.% lithium-based grease, separately. Respective to magnetic properties test, the vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) revealed that MRG-EIP exhibited 11.4% higher magnetic …

The Effect of using Grease on the Surface Roughness of Aluminum 1100 Sheet during the Single Point Incremental Forming Process
Abstract: Incremental forming is a sheet metal forming technique in which a uniform sheet is plastically deformed through the progressive action of a rounded tool. The movement of the tool is governed by a CNC machine. By this way the tool locally deforms the sheet through pure stretching deformation. In this research incremental forming experiments were carried out on Aluminum 1100 sheets to form a cone shape. Roughness was studied by …

Short Review on Lubrication Coatings and Reduction in Friction
Abstract: Specialized Epoxy coatings with a low coefficient of friction can be applied to metal, glass, and plastic substrates. They produce long-lasting, slick surfaces that prevent wear and abrasion. These friction compounds are corrosion-resistant, chemically inert, and simple to maintain. Products are made to cut down on repair costs and increase element life. The coating is just a protective layer that is put to an object's surface, also known as the …

A Critical Review on Semi-solid and Solid Lubricants for Industrial Applications
Abstract: Friction materials are very important for the safe moving of automobiles and the safety of people. As the pad slides against its match, the moving energy is turned into heat by the friction. As the vehicle's speed is lost as heat in the pads and rotors, the friction at the contact slows it down. Lubricants are compounds that are applied to moving parts to reduce friction and wear. Used primarily …

Utilization of Banana Peel Biopolymer as a Natural Coagulant for Wastewater Treatment: A Sustainable Approach to Bio-Composite Applications
Abstract: This study explores an eco-innovative approach to wastewater treatment by utilizing banana peel powder (BPP) as a sustainable, low-cost bio-coagulant. Although effective, conventional chemical coagulants like aluminum sulfate and synthetic polymers are often non-biodegradable, toxic, and economically burdensome, particularly in decentralized or low-resource settings. In contrast, BPP—an agro-waste material rich in bioactive functional groups such as hydroxyl, carboxyl, and phenolic compounds—provides a renewable and environmentally friendly alternative. To enhance its …
