Abstract
The correlations made between thermodynamic and kinetic data of the heterogeneous systems provided insight into the alloys properties. Experimental researches presented in this paper refer to the thermodynamics of Cu-Ti binary system for very low concentrations of titanium in copper from 2 10340.010006.0 mole fractions at 1372 K, at 1423 K temperatures. By electrochemical method the thermodynamics activities and activity coefficients at 1372 K, 1423 K were determined. The Associated Solution Model (ASM) parameters have been used to describe the thermodynamic properties of the Cu-Ti dilute solutions. Analytical expression has been derived to express the activity of titan in copper and the activity coefficient. The first and second order Wagner’s selfinteraction parameters were given as a function of ASM parameters.

Glass- Carbon Bioactive Coatings on a TiO2-Nb2O5 Substrate
The research carried out studies the processes of coating and impregnation of non-active glass carbon coatings on TiO2-Nb2O5 substrates, intended for surgery implants for hip joint prostheses. It was found that the coati...
FEM Analysis of the Spur Gears Press–Rolling Process
This paper presents the FEM (finite element method) analysis of the pressingrolling process, a new method for obtaining spur gears. Using symmetries, the 3D geometrical model was created for tools and for the initial bla...
Tribocorrosion – Insight into Material Degradation in Specific Environments
Tribocorrosion is an irreversible surface degradation mechanism of a metallic and/or non-metallic material as a result of its physicochemical and mechanical interactions during relative motion (friction, sliding, impact,...
Tribological Behaviour of Nitrocarburized Steels after Thermo-Magnetic Treatments
Two types of steels were subjected to a nitro-carburized thermo-chemical treatment after thermo-magnetic treatments. The structural aspects into the superficial layer of these steels are studied during the friction proce...
