The XRD equal first peak height (EFPH) method is applied to CAE measurement of Fe-based amorphous alloy for the first time. It is shown again that the EFPH method coincides with the premise of Kissinger equation. The procedure of EFPH method is introduced in detail in this paper. The accuracy in determining CAE of amorphous alloy may be improved by applying the EFPH method. As a result, the mechanism of embrittlement of amorphous alloy may be better elucidated.展开更多

The Mo equation was employed to analyze the non-isothermal crystallization data. The crystallization activation energies were also evaluated by the Kissinger method. The results show that the crystallization onset temperature(T onset) and crystallization peak temperature(T p) decrease with the increase of the content of reactive microgel, while ΔT(T onset–T p), the crystallization half-time(t1/2) and the crystallization enthalpy(ΔH c) increase. The required cooling rates of blends are higher than that of neat nylon6 in order to achieve the same relative crystallinity in a unit of time. The crystallization activation energies of the reactive microgel/nylon 6 blends are greater than those of the neat nylon 6. When the content of reactive microgel is 30%, the relative crystallinity(X t) reaches the maximum.展开更多

The values of glass transition and crystallization temperatures were found to be heating rate dependent. Using Matusita method, the crystallization activation energies E and crystallization parameter (n) calculated are 348.08±0.99 kJ/mol and 1.78. It suggests that there are two mechanisms: a surface and one-dimensional crystallization processes.展开更多

The fully amorphous structure of asquenched (Aq) ribbons was confirmed by XRD pattern. The saturation magnetization (Ms) and Curie tem perature of the Aq ribbon were measured as 124.3 (A.mZ)&g and 305 ℃ with vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), respectively. When the ribbons was annealed at 550 ℃ near the first onset temperature (Txl = 564.9 ℃), the Ms was increased by 17 %, which was caused by the formation of a dual phase structure. The isothermal crystallization kinetics and crystallization mechanism of primary ctFe phase in the dual phase structure were studied by Arrhenius and JohnsonMehlAvramiKolmogorov equations respectively. The results showed that the crystallization of Fe phase was a diffusioncontrolled surface nucleation growth process, and the nucleation rate decreased with longer crystallization time.展开更多

In this work, crystallization behavior of NaO-CaO-SiO2 system glasses doped with Nd2O3 was investigated. The crystallization kinetic parameters including the crystallization apparent activation energy (E) and the Avrami parameter (n) were also measured. The results show that the NaO-CaO-SiO2 system glassceramics with the NaxCa2Si3O9 crystal as primary phase can be highly crystalized as above 90%. The Nd2O3 doping has a significant influence on the crystallization apparent activation energy and the Avrami parameter, which affect the crystallization behavior and morphology of the transparent glass-ceramics of this system.展开更多

NaYF4 nanocrystals with different sizes were studied under glass network modifier alkali mental oxide. The nanocrystals size in NaYF4 of Li2O modified samples was 11 nm, whereas in the Na20 and K2O modified sample, the crystal size was 25 and 43 nm, respectively. It was found that red, yellow and green upconversions were observed in SAL, SAN, SAK glass ceramics. The reported results would deepen the understanding of size effects on the lanthanide upcon- version in nanocrystals.展开更多
