Thermal stability of samples was characterized by XRD, surface areas were measured by BET method and reductive property was characterized by TPR. The results show that MnO2 can be dispersed in solid solution after calcined at 1273 K, when the loading is 12%, while Fe and Cu is easy to separate from samples at this temperature. Samples doped simultaneously by Fe, Mn or Fe, Cu demonstrated high reactive property at low temperature. The starting reduction temperature are 413 and 373 K, respectively. TPR results also show a broad range of reductive temperature exists in these bi-metal doped samples.展开更多
Influences of addition of CaO, CoO and V2O5 on the microstructure and magnetic properties of (Mg0.476Mn0.448Zn0.007)(Fe1.997Ti0.002)O4 ferrites were investigated.

The powders of (Mg0.476Mn0.448Zn0.007) (Fe1.997Ti0.002)O4 composition were prepared by using a conventional ceramic powder processing technique. The experimental results showed that the average grain size of the sintered ferrites codoped with 0.03wt% CaO, 0.04wt% CoO and 0.06wt% V2O5 was about 15 μm; the saturation magnetization of ferrites was 68.78 emu/g. The addition of V2O5 in the ferrites can not only increase value of the saturation magnetization, but also decrease the average grain size of (Mg0.476Mn0.448Zn0.007)(Fe1.997Ti0.002)O4 ferrites. Simultaneous incorporation of CoO, CaO and V2O5 dopants into (Mg0.476Mn0.448Zn0.007)(Fe1.997Ti0.002)O4 ferrites can not only improve the saturation magnetization of the materials, but also inhibit abnormal grain growth.展开更多

The results indicate that alloys containing Sc and Zr can remarkably reduce the grain sizes of Al-Mg-Mn castings. Combination of Sc,Zr and Er can completely eliminate the columnar dendritic grains and further obtain refined grains with nondendritic sub-structure;the whole wedge-shaped cross-section of the casting consequently exhibits more homogeneous cast structures instead of the typical tri-crystal region structures. Large amounts of Al3Sc-based intermetallic compound particles,such as Al3(Sc1-x,Zrx),Al3(Sc1-x,Tix),Al3(Sc1-x-y,Zrx,Tiy) and Al3(Sc1-x-y,Zrx,Ery) are present in the microalloyed alloys,resulting from their numerously forming in high-temperature melt before solidification. These phases have the same L12-type crystal structure to Al3Sc phase as well as smaller misfits with the primary α(Al) grains,which leads to more efficient epitaxial growth for α(Al) grains on all crystal planes of these composite phases. The experimental alloys have been hardened in different levels and,show the low susceptibilities of hardness change with varying cooling rate. The high hardness of the castings are caused by grain-refined strengthening and solid solution strengthening.展开更多

Diethylene glycol(DEG) used here plays dual role in synthesis as it acts as reducing agent and alternatively coats the surface of nanoparticles while synthesis and thereby maintaining uniform size and dispersibility. Powder X-ray diffraction(XRD) and magnetic measurements showed that the sample is cubic spinel and superparamagnetic at room temperature. Raman spectra confirmed the formation of the Mg0.8Mn0.2Fe2O4 nanoparticles.The nanoparticles exhibit very good stability in water due to in situ coating with DEG molecules.展开更多

Experimental results show that FeO, TiO2, and MnO could enhance the corrosion rate and V2O3 and MgO could decrease it. Microstructure and phase composition of worn samples were investigated by SEM-EDS, revealing the presence of Fe particles, produced by graphite reduction, and (Mg,Fe,Mn)O solid solution at the interface. The formation process of (Mg,Fe,Mn)O solid solution was discussed and the corrosion mechnism of MgO-C bricks was thus proposed.展开更多

Potential of the catalysts in the soot oxidation was evaluated in a temperature-programmed oxidation (TPO) apparatus. The results showed that all the Fe3+ and Zr4+ were incor- porated into ceria lattice to form a pure Ce-Fe-Zr-O solid solution for the co-precipitation sample, but two kinds of Fe phases ex- isted in the Ce-Fe-Zr-O catalysts prepared by other methods: Fe3+ incorporated into CeO2 lattice and dispersed Fe2O3 clusters. The free Fe2O3 clusters could improve the activity of catalysts for soot oxidation comparing with the pure Ce-Fe-Zr-O solid solution owing to the synergetic effect between free Fe2O3 and surface oxygen vacancies. In addition, the activity of catalysts strongly relied on the surface reducibility of free Fe2O3 particles. Holding both abundant free Fe2O3 particles and high oxygen vacancy concentration, the hydrothermal Ce0.5Fe0.3Zr0.202 catalyst presented the lowest Ti (251℃, ignition temperature of soot oxidation) and Tm (310 ℃, maximum oxidation rate temperature) for soot combustion (with tight-contact between soot and catalysts) among the five samples. Even after aging at 800 ℃ for 10 h, the Ti and Tm were still relatively low, at 273 and 361 ℃, respectively, indicating high catalytic stability.展开更多
