A housing for an electronic device can include an exterior titanium portion, an interior metal joined to the exterior titanium portion, the interior metal being a different metal than the exterior titanium portion, and an intermetallic compound having a thickness of less than 1 μm disposed between the interior metal and the exterior titanium portion.

Electronic device including clad components

A composite housing of an electronic device can include a metal shell including a first material having a first set of material properties and a surface at least partially defining an exterior surface of the electronic device. The composite housing can also include an interior portion including a second material having a second set of material properties independent of the first set of material properties and at least partially defining a feature. The interior portion can be bonded to the shell and disposed interior to the surface of the shell.

Core shell with various filler materials for enhanced thermal conductivity

A mold apparatus to form a ceramic (or glass) includes a first mold portion having a first coefficient of thermal expansion and a second mold portion having a second coefficient of thermal expansion. In some embodiments, the first mold portion and/or the second mold portion are substantially immiscible with the ceramic material, such as silicon oxide, at a temperature greater than 600&#xb0; C. In some embodiments, the first coefficient of thermal expansion and the second coefficient of thermal expansion are substantially similar to that of the glass or ceramic material. In some embodiments, the first coefficient of thermal expansion is different from the second coefficient of thermal expansion. In some embodiments, the first mold portion and the second mold portion contain a surface coating and a passivation layer.

Mold materials for formed ceramic

A vehicle wheel, or other axisymmetric shaped article, is formed of an aluminum-based alloy by a combination of a liquid forging step of a pre-form shape of the wheel and a subsequent solid-state flow forming step to complete the specified shape of the wheel. An aluminum-based alloy, containing specified amounts of zinc, silicon, and magnesium is devised for use in the forming process. The composition of the aluminum-based alloy is devised to facilitate the performance of each forming step of the article and the mechanical properties of the final shaped product.

Aluminum alloy for forming an axisymmetric article

A material and method for manufacturing components. The method includes squeeze casting the material into a component of a desired shape and flow-forming the component that has been squeeze cast to refine the shape of the component. The method also includes heat treating the component to enhance the microstructure of the component and machining the component to further refine the shape.

Methods and apparatus to produce high performance axisymmetric components

A method for producing a thermoplastic resin composition includes melt-blending 50 to 80 parts by mass of a crystalline polyester resin and 20 to 50 parts by mass of an amorphous polyester resin with an extruder, thereby producing a first polyester resin compound. The method further includes melt-blending 90 to 99 parts by mass of the crystalline polyester resin and 1 to 10 parts by mass of a styrene-acrylonitrile-glycidyl methacrylate terpolymer with the extruder or a different extruder, thereby producing a second polyester resin compound. The method further includes compounding 1 to 10 parts by mass of the first polyester resin compound, 1 to 10 parts by mass of the second polyester resin compound, and respective predetermined amounts of a polycarbonate resin, a flame retardant, an antidrip agent, an antioxidant, a lubricant and a toughening agent.

Method for producing thermoplastic resin composition, thermoplastic resin composition and copier/printer exterior part

A metal workpiece, such as a wheel, and a method of providing an enhanced corrosion resistant surface coating on an exposed surface of a metal or alloy substrate (such as magnesium). A corrosion resistance basecoat is formed, including generating an oxide layer, and applying a first primer coating onto at least a portion of the oxide layer. The method may further include identifying highest corrosion prone areas on the substrate and designing a support rack that avoids contact with these corrosion prone areas. The method also includes forming a topcoat over at least a portion of the basecoat, by applying a second primer coating onto at least a portion of the first primer coating and depositing a sputtered metallic film onto the second primer coating using a physical vapor deposition technique. A clear coat layer may be applied over the metallic film.

Method of making corrosion resistant and glossy appearance coating for light metal workpiece

A copier/printer exterior part uses a halogen-free flame-retardant resin composition. The halogen-free flame-retardant resin composition includes 5 wt % to 50 wt % of unused polycarbonate, 20 wt % to 63 wt % of recycled polycarbonate, 5 wt % to 35 wt % of recycled polyethylene terephthalate, 0.2 wt % to 2 wt % of a styrene-acrylonitrile-glycidyl methacrylate terpolymer, 5 wt % to 15 wt % of a toughener, 10 wt % to 20 wt % of a flame retardant, 0.1 wt % to 0.8 wt % of a flame-retardant antidrip agent, 0.1 wt % to 1 wt % of an antioxidant, and 0.1 wt % to 2 wt % of a lubricant. The styrene-acrylonitrile-glycidyl methacrylate terpolymer includes 1 wt % to 5 wt % of glycidyl methacrylate and 20 wt % to 33 wt % of acrylonitrile.
