Crystallization and dielectric properties of the Gd2O3 adding glass-ceramic composites were investigated. With the increase in the concentration of Gd2O3, the glass transition temperature and the crystallization temperature of the pre-cursor glass shift towards the higher temperature. The crystallization behavior that occurred during the heat treatment procedure leads to the enhancement of dielectric constant. All the three compositions of glass-ceramic composites exhibit ferroelectricity when tested at room tem-perature. Both the values of the remanent polarization and coercive field are enhanced regularly with the gradual increase in the concentration of Gd2O3 additive under the same testing field.展开更多

The results show that the crystal shape changed from grainy to rod-shaped and finally turned to multiple shapes as the sintering temperature was increased from 900 to 1060℃. With increasing sintering temperature, the average pore size of the foamed glass-ceramics increased and subsequently decreased. By contrast, the compressive strength and the bulk density decreased and subsequently increased. An excessively high temperature, however, induced the coalescence of pores and decreased the compressive strength. The optimal properties, including the highest compressive strength(16.64 MPa) among the investigated samples and a relatively low bulk density(0.83 g/cm^3), were attained in the case of the foamed glass-ceramics sintered at 1000℃.展开更多

During the grinding process,the workpiece surface is typically subject to material removal by grit of incremental heights, which has rarely been the focus of research. As such, it is necessary to study the material removal mechanism of glass-ceramics under consecutive incremental loading, which more closely reflects the actual grinding process. In this paper,to analyze the plastic deformation and residual stress of lithium aluminosilicate(LAS) glass-ceramics, a finite element model is established based on the Drucker–Prager yield criterion for ductile regimes. A nano-scratch test was also conducted and the test results show that both the residual depth and residual stress increase with an increase in the number of increments, and that consecutive incremental loading promotes the plastic deformation of glass-ceramics and increases the residual stress of the material in the ductile-regime process. These findings provide guidance for achieving higher dimensional accuracy in the actual grinding of glass-ceramics parts.展开更多

Polyester fiberglass (PFG) waste was treated at 550℃ for 3 h in a 9.6 dm3 thermolytic reactor. This process yielded an oil (≈24 wt%), a gas (≈8 wt%) and a solid residue (≈68 wt%). After the polymer has been removed, the solid residue is heated in air to oxidize residual char and remove surface contamination. The cleaning fibers were converted into glass-ceramic tile. A mixture consisting of 95 wt% of this solid residue and 5% Na2O was melted at 1450℃ to obtain a glass frit. Powder glass samples (<63 μm) was then sintered and crystallized at 1013℃, leading to the formation of wollastonite-plagioclase glass-ceramic materials for architectural applications. Thermal stability and crystallization mechanism have been studied by Differential Thermal Analysis. Mineralogy analyses of the glass-ceramic materials were carried out using X-ray Diffraction.展开更多

Five samples with different SiO2 /CaO ratios were used in the research. The mechanical properties, microstructures and textures of porous glass-ceramics are investigated by using differential thermogravimetric analysis/differential thermal analysis ( TGA/SDTA) ,X-ray diffraction ( XRD) ,and scanning electron microsco- py ( SEM) . The activity energy of crystallization ( E) and crystallization kinetics parameter ( k) were calculated based on the modified JMA equation. The Avrami parameter n was obtained according to Augis-Bennett function. The results show that the k value of No. 1 sample ( SiO2 /CaO = 61∶ 18) is the largest among all samples, which tends to crystallize more easily,and crystallization processes of all samples are observed bulk crystallization. The main crystal phase observed is parawollastonite ( clinorhombic system) with puncheon shape. Poreforming agents decomposed at 100 - 500 ℃ form a large number of closed pores with micron dimension and several semi-open pores distribute uniformly in the glass-ceramics matrix. This work may be expected to be favorable for industrial scale applications of porous glass-ceramics in the field of building thermal insulation.展开更多

This transformation is investigated using thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy. A comparison with RE3+: β-PbF2 ceramics prepared by standard ceramic techniques is performed. The Rare Earth cations show a strong nucleating effect for the precipitation of the RE3++: β-PbF2 nanocrystals. The evolution of the unit cell parameters of the REF3: β-PbF2 solid solution results from a combined effect of Pb2+-RE3+ substitution and interstitial F– introduction. In the glass ceramics, RE3+: β-PbF2 nanocrystals are constrained by the glassy matrix when they form with a pressure equivalent to 1.6 GPa. The constrained nanocrystals can return to a relaxed state by chemical dissolution of the embedding glassy matrix, followed by thermal treatments.展开更多

The crystallization processing of the dielectric phases were carried out at temperature range from 750 to 900 ℃. The effects of Na2O content on crystallization and dielectric properties of Na2O-PbO-Nb2O5-SiO2 glass-ceramic were investigated by means of differential thermal analysis(DTA), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and dielectric constant measurements. The results show that Pb2Nb2O7, NaNbO3 and PbNb2O6 are the crystallization phases which would be formed from the Na2O-PbO-Nb2O5-SiO2 glass at the temperature range from 750 to 900 ℃. For a definite Na2O content, the dielectric constant increases with crystallization temperature. The initial crystallization temperature of NaNbO3 phase decreases with the increase of Na2O content, leading to the increase of dielectric constant of the glass-ceramic. Formation of PbNb2O6 phase at 850 and 900 ℃ would greatly increase the dielectric constant of Na2O-PbO-Nb2O5-SiO2 glass-ceramics, but the increase of Na2O content will inhibit the crystallization of PbNb2O6 phase.展开更多

Accordingly, multiple-phase aluminosilicate glass-ceramics were directly obtained via liquid-phase sintering at temperatures below 950°C. On the basis of liquid-phase sintering theory, mineral-phase evolutions and glass-phase formations were systematically investigated in a wide MO–SiO_2–Al_2O_3–B_2O_3(M = Ca, Ba) composition range. The results indicate that major mineral phases of the aluminosilicate glass-ceramics are Al_(20)B_4O_(36), CaAl_2Si_2O_8, and BaAl_2Si_2O_8 and that the glass-ceramic materials are characterized by dense microstructures and excellent dielectric properties.展开更多

The effects of ZrO2 addition on the crystallization and phase transformation process in LAS system were investigated by using differential thermal analysis （DTA）, X-ray powder diffractometry （XRD） and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy （FTIR）. The activation energy decreases from 304.6 to 248.9kJ/mol and the frequency factor decreases from 2.49×10 11 to 5.56×108 min -1 as ZrO2 content changes from 0 to 4.0%（mass fraction）. During calcination from 800 to 1200℃, hexagonal β-quartz solid-solution first crystallizes and then gradually transforms into tetragonal β-spodumene solid-solution with increasing temperature. The stability of β-quartz solid-solution increases with more ZrO2 additions and a minor crystalline phase, tetragonal zirconia, also appears.展开更多

文摘This work presents the feasibility of reusing a glass fiber resulting from the thermolysis and gasification of waste composites to obtain glass-ceramic tiles. Polyester fiberglass (PFG) waste was treated at 550℃ for 3 h in a 9.6 dm3 thermolytic reactor. This process yielded an oil (≈24 wt%), a gas (≈8 wt%) and a solid residue (≈68 wt%). After the polymer has been removed, the solid residue is heated in air to oxidize residual char and remove surface contamination. The cleaning fibers were converted into glass-ceramic tile. A mixture consisting of 95 wt% of this solid residue and 5% Na2O was melted at 1450℃ to obtain a glass frit. Powder glass samples (<63 μm) was then sintered and crystallized at 1013℃, leading to the formation of wollastonite-plagioclase glass-ceramic materials for architectural applications. Thermal stability and crystallization mechanism have been studied by Differential Thermal Analysis. Mineralogy analyses of the glass-ceramic materials were carried out using X-ray Diffraction.

The mechanical properties, microstructures and textures of porous glass-ceramics are investigated by using differential thermogravimetric analysis/differential thermal analysis ( TGA/SDTA) ,X-ray diffraction ( XRD) ,and scanning electron microsco- py ( SEM) . The activity energy of crystallization ( E) and crystallization kinetics parameter ( k) were calculated based on the modified JMA equation. The Avrami parameter n was obtained according to Augis-Bennett function. The results show that the k value of No. 1 sample ( SiO2 /CaO = 61∶ 18) is the largest among all samples, which tends to crystallize more easily,and crystallization processes of all samples are observed bulk crystallization. The main crystal phase observed is parawollastonite ( clinorhombic system) with puncheon shape. Poreforming agents decomposed at 100 - 500 ℃ form a large number of closed pores with micron dimension and several semi-open pores distribute uniformly in the glass-ceramics matrix. This work may be expected to be favorable for industrial scale applications of porous glass-ceramics in the field of building thermal insulation.

文摘The devitrification of glasses with composition 50GeO2-40PbO-10PbF2-xREF3, RE = Gd, Eu, 0 3+: β-PbF2 nanocrystals embedded in a glassy oxide matrix. This transformation is investigated using thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy. A comparison with RE3+: β-PbF2 ceramics prepared by standard ceramic techniques is performed. The Rare Earth cations show a strong nucleating effect for the precipitation of the RE3++: β-PbF2 nanocrystals. The evolution of the unit cell parameters of the REF3: β-PbF2 solid solution results from a combined effect of Pb2+-RE3+ substitution and interstitial F– introduction. In the glass ceramics, RE3+: β-PbF2 nanocrystals are constrained by the glassy matrix when they form with a pressure equivalent to 1.6 GPa. The constrained nanocrystals can return to a relaxed state by chemical dissolution of the embedding glassy matrix, followed by thermal treatments.
文摘Na2O-PbO-Nb2O5-SiO2 glass-ceramic were synthesized by melt-quench process. The crystallization processing of the dielectric phases were carried out at temperature range from 750 to 900 ℃. The effects of Na2O content on crystallization and dielectric properties of Na2O-PbO-Nb2O5-SiO2 glass-ceramic were investigated by means of differential thermal analysis(DTA), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and dielectric constant measurements. The results show that Pb2Nb2O7, NaNbO3 and PbNb2O6 are the crystallization phases which would be formed from the Na2O-PbO-Nb2O5-SiO2 glass at the temperature range from 750 to 900 ℃. For a definite Na2O content, the dielectric constant increases with crystallization temperature. The initial crystallization temperature of NaNbO3 phase decreases with the increase of Na2O content, leading to the increase of dielectric constant of the glass-ceramic. Formation of PbNb2O6 phase at 850 and 900 ℃ would greatly increase the dielectric constant of Na2O-PbO-Nb2O5-SiO2 glass-ceramics, but the increase of Na2O content will inhibit the crystallization of PbNb2O6 phase.

文摘In this work, network former SiO_2 and network intermediate Al_2O_3 were introduced into typical low-melting binary compositions CaO·B_2O_3, CaO·2B_2O_3, and BaO·B_2O_3 via an aqueous solid-state suspension milling route. Accordingly, multiple-phase aluminosilicate glass-ceramics were directly obtained via liquid-phase sintering at temperatures below 950°C. On the basis of liquid-phase sintering theory, mineral-phase evolutions and glass-phase formations were systematically investigated in a wide MO–SiO_2–Al_2O_3–B_2O_3(M = Ca, Ba) composition range. The results indicate that major mineral phases of the aluminosilicate glass-ceramics are Al_(20)B_4O_(36), CaAl_2Si_2O_8, and BaAl_2Si_2O_8 and that the glass-ceramic materials are characterized by dense microstructures and excellent dielectric properties.
文摘A novel method based on polyacrylamide gel process was used to prepare Li2O-Al2O3-SiO2 （LAS） glass-ceramic powders. The effects of ZrO2 addition on the crystallization and phase transformation process in LAS system were investigated by using differential thermal analysis （DTA）, X-ray powder diffractometry （XRD） and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy （FTIR）. The activation energy decreases from 304.6 to 248.9kJ/mol and the frequency factor decreases from 2.49×10 11 to 5.56×108 min -1 as ZrO2 content changes from 0 to 4.0%（mass fraction）. During calcination from 800 to 1200℃, hexagonal β-quartz solid-solution first crystallizes and then gradually transforms into tetragonal β-spodumene solid-solution with increasing temperature. The stability of β-quartz solid-solution increases with more ZrO2 additions and a minor crystalline phase, tetragonal zirconia, also appears.
文摘The preparation technics of glass-ceramics with super low coefficient of thermal expansion containing β-quartz solid solution as a main crystal phase based on the glass in the system Li2O-Al2O3-SiO2 was introduced. The composition of base glass, technics of melting and heat treatment effecting on characteristic of glass-ceramics was described. Specimens were prepared by melting, anneal and controlled two steps heat treatment. Crystal phase, microstructure and elementary distributing were studied by using XRD, SEM and EDS respectively. Prepared specimens show excellent transparency and super low thermal expansion coefficient of 2×10-8 ·K-1, which reaches international advanced level.

文摘Basalt fiber(BF)is widely applied in the construction industry to improve the mechanical properties of construction materials.Recent studies show that BF has the potential to further enhance its performance via a crystallization approach.In this work,the glass-ceramic basalt fibers(GCBFs)were prepared through nucleation and crystallization treatments according to the crystallization kinetics calculations.Results from XRD and SEM show that GCBFs have main crystalline phases of Diopside and Augite reach crystallinity of around 46%±10%.In particular,the GCBFs sample with the largest mean crystal size maintains the lowest tensile strength of~197 MPa(compared with the pristine BFs of~737 MPa).Moreover,the weight loss and ion dissolution of GCBFs were explored in seawater environments and it was investigated that,GCBFs have better anti-seawater corrosion than the pristine BFs and have the potential to apply in the marine industry.
