Worn tracks on the surfaces of different polymer materials showed that the dominant wear mechanism transforms from fatigue and abrasion into adhesion with the addition of a dispersed phase delamination was observed in the transfer films, especially those formed by the Ekonol/PTFE and Ekonol/PPS blends. ![]() Curves of hardness and friction coefficient versus the dispersed phase content showed apparent similarities, which indicates that hardness influences the friction of polymer blends in contact with carbon steel. Results showed that the dispersed phases have distinct effects on the impact strength and hardness, as well as friction coefficient and wear rate, of the blends. ![]() The worn surfaces of Ekonol blends were observed using a scanning electron microscope to elucidate the relevant wear mechanisms. The mechanical properties of the blends were investigated, and their tribological performance was tested using a block-on-ring wear meter. Poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE), poly(etheretherketone), and poly(phylenesulfide) (PPS) were selected as dispersed phases. p-Hydroxybenzoic acid polymer (Ekonol) blends with different compositions, and proportions were prepared through mechanical blending. Blending is an accepted technique for modifying tribological applications. While high friction coefficients and good wear resistance are antagonistic properties of most materials, these properties are expected to promote excellent torque-speed characteristics and extend the life span of ultrasonic motors. ![]()

![]() The pacing is unbelievable boring a drags on and goes nowhere. ![]() It is a sad piece and so slow and dreary. “Heroes Don’t Die” is up next and is a ballad. The chorus is decent, but that is about it. The song plods along with a monotonous beat and I am bored to tears. Klaus’ vocals are really high pitched and a little irritating with his vocal delivery and that tone. The first new song is “Edge of Time” and is the only rocking track of the three. I get that it isn’t a full show and they were trying not to repeat tracks, but this is a strange set of songs…although it does sound great. An album that comes in like a lion goes out like a lamb. I’m tired of that song as it has been so overplayed which is a CIA ploy, but we won’t go there (LOL!). Then the final live song is, of course, “Wind of Change”. Another heavy song to the keep the energy going and one that I think is pretty good live as the guitar work on it is great as Schenker and Mathias really tie one on with this one. We get “Crazy World” up next from San Francisco and Klaus is yelling at the crowd to go nuts. This is a great live track as it is hard and heavy and totally rocks out. The boys really tear it up here and take this song to another level. It is a fantastic solo that then smoothly bleeds in to the killer freaking riff from “Alien Nation”. The song ends with a fury and then goes in to Schenker’s guitar solo which he calls “Concerto in V”. Klaus speaks to the crowd in Russian as it was recorded in Leningrad. On here, two slow songs in a row really can start to drag the show down. Next up is “Living for Tomorrow” and this song had been released previously on the 1992 compilation called ‘Still Loving You’. I didn’t like this song as the ending to that album, but mixed here in the middle of the show and listening to Klaus sound incredible on this one, I dig it here. Then from ‘Blackout’ we get “When the Smoke is Going Down” and another surprise track for me. It fits better in the live setting than album setting, but not by much. The first misstep for me is “No Pain No Gain” as I’m not a fan of this song, but they do make it sound a little better than the studio track here. Back to the heavy rock guitar sound with “Rhythm of Love” and they nail it here before going in to the only song that is a found on another live album and that is the fantastic “In Trance” and this is a classic track. I really unexpected choice for the live show, but very welcomed. Then we get a real treat with the ‘Lovedrive’ track “Is There Anybody There”. They kick off with “Tease Me Please Me” and it would be a good song to start with as it totally rocks out and gets you on your feet. There is no denying these boys can play live. And Klaus’ vocals are spot on, the drum sound is hard and heavy. The guitar sound is actually killer, almost to amazing which makes me wonder if any touch up was done. No definitive time on the recordings, but I believe they range for 1988-1995, just no where I can prove that out.Īs far as live albums go, it does sound fantastic. The best thing about the album is that they did include 3 studio tracks which is the real reason to buy. However, most of the bass playing is long time member Francis Buchholz. The album has the normal crew of Klaus Meine, Rudolf Schenker, Mathais Jabs, Herman Rarebell and current bass player, Ralph Rieckermann. The cities were Leningrad (Russia), San Francisco (US), Mexico City (Mexico), Berlin (Germany) and Munich (Germany). They took shows from several concerts from 1988 to 1994. Now, the disc is not one show as that would be the smart thing to do and this instead is the easy way out.

That’s why many experts predicted that cobalt demand would continue to enjoy healthy levels for the year. While conditions were seen easing in H2, the impact of the Russia-Ukraine war called that into question.ĮV forecasts at the start of the year indicated that the strong sales trend seen in 2021 would not slow down in 2022. “We expect that market tightness will continue while global supply chains remain constrained and keep intermediate payables high,” Fisher said. By the end of March, European prices were near US$40. Russia is the world’s second largest producer of cobalt, with 2021 output of 7,600 metric tons (MT), as per the US Geological Survey.Īfter averaging US$24 per pound in 2021, European metal prices started the year at around US$32, but rose on the back of constrained conditions and uncertainty around the war in Ukraine. “Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was of course the key shock which has tightened the screws further on the market,” he said. In Q1, cobalt's performance was mostly as expected, with tight conditions persisting and strong demand continuing from the battery market, Harry Fisher, then of CRU Group, told the Investing News Network (INN). Whether new battery technologies will reduce demand, or the increase of electric vehicles and the need for cobalt will rise, will have to be watched for in the coming months to determine the future of this important metal.What happened in the cobalt market in 2022?Ĭobalt market in Q1: Strong demand supports prices While there are several supply changes that will be occurring from 2019 into 2025, demand will play the most deciding factor on the future price fluctuations of cobalt metal. However, this lab work may take years, as electric vehicle manufacturers still expect cobalt supplies to accelerate ten-fold into 2025. These delisting and ban initiatives will follow an assessment period based on the new LME rules by 2022.Īnother factor to watch out for in the coming years that may influence the cobalt market involves vehicle manufacturers looking for battery chemistries that do not use as much cobalt. The LME plans to push out an initiative to delist any cobalt brands that have not been responsibly sourced, according to Investing News Network. In addition, prices are expected to recover due to the LME instituting new bans on illegal mining happening in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Industry experts expect demand to rise again with mines increasing their cobalt output. Artisanal mining took off and experienced exponential growth for several years, then declined due to lower cobalt prices. The Democratic Republic of Congo supplies most of the cobalt to the world. On the other hand, prices are also expected to see a positive increase based on the battery demand in the electric vehicle market.Īnother change which may impact the cobalt market involves mining production occurring in Africa. This may keep prices depressed for a time. Buyers of cobalt, especially those in China, are only expected to purchase cobalt for spot deals. The volatility of prices for cobalt continues due to a range of circumstances happening in several countries. Prices Continue to Fluctuate, But Expected to Recover By March 2019, cobalt prices hovered around US$14/lb and experienced a slight rebound in April at US$18.50/lb. Due to the oversupply of cobalt in warehouses by investors and no long-term projects set up to increase demand for the metal, prices in the United States declined to US$26/lb at the beginning of 2019. At the end of 2018, the price for cobalt on the LME went down to $32,000 a ton. Cobalt prices crashed for a two-year period. However, this upward trend began a downward spiral for the remainder of 2018. In the United States, cobalt metal as a little over US$40/lb. Investors purchased cobalt in large quantities for their warehouse so they could weather through the trade war.Īt the end of 2017, cobalt prices went up to $75,500 a ton on the London Metal Exchange (LME) as it continued to trend high and peak in April of 2018 at about $100,000 a ton. One of the main reasons attributing to this price surge was the fears of the tariffs between the United States and China. Throughout every quarter, cobalt prices rocketed skyward as there was a 129% surge, according to. We are a long way from the high prices back in 2017 for this metal. When looking at the price market, there has been drastic price fluctuations, as companies are wondering if this trend will continue or if rates will soon stabilize. Purchasing this metal at an acceptable price and answering consumer demand can influence a manufacturer’s operations now and in the future. When it comes to tools, superalloys, magnets and batteries, cobalt is a key material used in manufacturing products we need in our daily lives. ![]() |
