This application relates to a method of manufacturing an electrostatic chuck having a high heat dissipation property and high thermal shock resistance and being lightweight, and an electrostatic chuck manufactured by the method. In one aspect, the method includes preparing a composite powder by milling (i) aluminum or aluminum alloy powder and (ii) carbon-based nanomaterial powder through ball milling. The method may also include manufacturing a multilayer billet including a core layer and one or more shell layers surrounding the core layer, in which at least one of the core and shell layers contains the composite powder. The method may further include extruding the multilayer billet to form an electrode layer and forming a dielectric layer on the electrode layer.

Methods are provided for a post-treatment process for use with coatings deposited via thermal spray and/or cold spray to modify the microstructures of the coatings and improve associated cohesion and adhesion properties. Such process includes performing ultrasonic consolidation of the spray coating as a post-treatment step after deposition of the spray coating onto a substrate. A system for spray deposition and ultrasonic consolidation is also provided.

The invention relates to a method for producing a roughing tool (1), particularly a circular milling tool, comprising the following steps: fitting a lateral surface of a tool base body (10) that can be rotatably driven about an axis of rotation (2) with a number of cutting element blanks (20′) that are staggered in the axial and/or peripheral direction, such that a free edge of each cutting element blank (20′) protrudes out of the lateral surface in the mounted state; inserting a microtoothing comprising a plurality of axially spaced cutting teeth (21) into the respective free edges of the cutting element blanks (20′) by a material removal method, preferably by thermal machining, particularly preferably by eroding, in the premounted state on the tool base body (10). The invention further relates to a roughing tool produced by means of such a method.

A method for making an improved nuclear fuel cladding tube includes reinforcing a Zr alloy tube by first winding or braiding ceramic yarn directly around the tube to form a ceramic covering, then physically bonding the ceramic covering to the tube by applying a first coating selected from the group consisting of Nb, Nb alloy, Nb oxide, Cr, Cr oxide, Cr alloy, or combinations thereof, by one of a thermal deposition process or a physical deposition process to provide structural support member for the Zr tube, and optionally applying a second coating and optionally applying a third coating by one of a thermal deposition process or a physical deposition process. If the tube softens at 800° C.-1000° C., the structural support tube will reinforce the Zr alloy tube against ballooning and bursting, thereby preventing the release of fission products to the reactor coolant.

A method for machining a crankcase includes providing a machining device. The machining device comprises a mechanical machining unit and a cooling/rinsing system, which is configured to cool and/or rinse the mechanical machining unit or a surface which is to be machined. The method also includes creating a structure in a cylinder wall of a crankcase using the mechanical machining unit. The method also includes using a fluid stream of the cooling/rinsing system to reshape at least certain regions of the structure.

A method for fabricating multi-layer ceramic broadband radome includes thermal-spraying layers of coating materials on the radome. The assembled structure exhibits tuned RF transparency response depending on the thickness and the dielectric constant of the deposited layers. Sub-micron thick ceramic layers, which are essential for broadband performance and hard to produce due to their fragile nature, can be deposited on big and complex objects by a fast and automated process.
