The results show that the stabilities of supersaturated solid solution (SSS) of Zn-Al alloy and α' phase formed by quenching would reduce with the increase of Zn content and the precipitation of η-Zn phases even when aging at ambient temperature, so that the exothermic precipitation peak in DSC curve would disappear. The activation energy of the η-Zn precipitation and the reaction enthalpy were calculated and measured. The kinetics of α' decomposition or η-Zn formation was determined by XRD. The microstructure change during aging was observed by TEM.展开更多

From these results, the stress state of a given phase in a duplex TiAl based alloy under a uniaxial tensile loading has been characterized by X ray diffraction. The results show that the X ray elastic constants and the microscopic stresses of the given phase are different from the apparent elastic constants and the macroscopic stresses of the alloy. The reason of the different distribution of the alloy was also discussed. [展开更多

The silicon-containing poly (amic acid)s were synthesized from bis (3, 4-dicarboxyphenyl) dimethylsilane dianhydride (SIDA), pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA) and 4,4′-oxydianiline (4,4'-ODA) in N, N-dimethylacetam...The silicon-containing poly (amic acid)s were synthesized from bis (3, 4-dicarboxyphenyl) dimethylsilane dianhydride (SIDA), pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA) and 4,4′-oxydianiline (4,4'-ODA) in N, N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc). The poly (amic acid) films were obtained by solution-cast method from DMAc solutions and thermally converted into transparent, flexible and tough polyimide films. The wide-angle X-ray diffraction diagrams revealed that all the polyimides possessed amorphous character, and the regulation of those polyimides were decreased with the increase of the molar ratio of SIDA to PMDA. Differential scanning calorimeter measurements showed that the introduction of SIDA to polyimide backbone would make glass transition temperature shift to lower temperature. Thermogravimetric analyses indicated that the silicon-containing polyimides lowered decomposition temperature as compared with PMDA/4, 4′-ODA polyimides. However, UV-visible transmission and reflection spectra showed that the optical transparency of silicon-containing polyimide thin films was superior to that of PMDA/4, 4'-ODA polyimide thin films.展开更多

It was found that, high residual stress existed in the composite and residual stress distribution in each direction are not uniform. Relaxation process of residual stress in the composite was dynamically measured during annealing at high temperature. It is verified that the relaxation of residual stress obeys the power law at high temperature. With the creep mechanism, the relaxation behavior of residual stresses at high temperature was analyzed. The results show that, the stress exponent and activation energy for stress relaxation of the composite are obviously higher than those of the matrix alloy.展开更多

In this work, IG-MWCNTs were functionalized with tetraethylenepentamine(TEPA) for CO2capture. The TEPA impregnated IG-MWCNTs were characterized with various experimental methods including N2adsorption/desorption isotherms, elemental analysis, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. Both the adsorption isotherms of IGMWCNTs-n and the isosteric heats of different adsorption capacities were obtained from experiments. TEPA impregnated IG-MWCNTs were also shown to have high CO2adsorption capacity comparable to that of TEPA impregnated P-MWCNTs. The adsorption capacity of IG-MWCNTs based adsorbents was in the range of 2.145 to 3.088 mmol/g, depending on adsorption temperatures. Having the advantages of low-cost and high adsorption capacity, TEPA impregnated IG-MWCNTs seem to be a promising adsorbent for CO2capture from flue gas.展开更多

The disappearance of elemental Fe and Cu X-ray diffraction (XRD) peaks and the presence of bcc structural XRD peaks illustrate the formation of a nanocrystalline single-phase bcc-Fe80Cu20 solid solution. From the EXAFS result, the clear observation of Cu atoms taking on bcc coordination in the solid solution and Fe atoms remaining bcc structure further verifies the reality of atomic alloying between Fe and Cu atoms and the lattice change of Cu from fcc to bcc. However, the supersaturated bcc solid solution is not chemically uniform, i.e., some regions are rich in Fe atoms and other regions rich in Cu atoms.展开更多

X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy were used to study the microstructure of the quasi-crystalline alloy. Isothermal weight gain of the Al-Cu-Fe quasi-crystal at elevated temperature in dry air was measured by means of a thermal balance and the oxidation behavior was evaluated by oxidation kinetic curves, from which it was deduced that the quasi-crystal exhibits good oxidation resistance. The surface morphologies of the Al-Cu-Fe quasi-crystal after isothermal oxidation at 700°C and 800°C for different times were observed. The oxidation resistance of quasi-crystalline powder and normal crystalline powder in the Al-Cu-Fe system was also quantitatively compared in quantity.展开更多

Thermal expansion coefficients of c axis length with different oxygen contents are α c (6.91, O 2)=19.1×10 -6 K -1 and α c (6.0, N 2)=19.3×10 -6 K -1 respectively. Chemical diffusion process of oxygen was described by relaxation time. From the Arrhenius plot of relaxation time, an activation energy of lattice diffusion was obtained as 1.1?eV, which is close to the results of SIMS (0.95?eV) and internal friction (1.02?eV).展开更多

Two single-phase samples with Ba/Y/Mn atomic ratios 5/8/4 (Y8) and 5/7/4 (Y7) are obtained. The crystal structures and the physical properties of the compounds are investigated by X-ray powder diffraction, magnetization, conductivity, and dielectricity measurements. The Ba5Y8-xMn4021-1.5x compound is demonstrated to be a Y-deficient solid solution. The solid solution compound Ba5Y8-xMn4021-1.5x crystallizes into tetragonal symmetry with the space group I4/m. Detailed structure analysis by Rietveld refinement of the X-ray powder diffraction data reveals that the Y vacancies occur preferentially at the Y(2) site. Thermal magnetization measurements indicate the presence of antiferromagnetic interaction between Mn ions in the compounds, and temperature-dependent resistivity measurements show that insulator-semiconductor transitions occur around 175 K and 170 K for the Y8 and Y7 samples, respectively. Strong frequency dependences of the dielectric constant are observed above -175 K for the two compounds.展开更多
