The hot corrosion behaviors of Ni–16Cr–xAl（x=4.5%, 6.8%, 9.0%, mass fraction） based alloys in Na2SO4–25% NaCl molten salts at 600 °C were investigated.

The effects of pre-oxidation and Al content on the resistance to hot corrosion were examined. The hot corrosion resistance of Ni–16Cr–xAl based alloy with Al addition from 4.5% to 9.0% increases with increasing Al content. The alloy with Al content of 9.0% shows the highest hot corrosion resistance among the examined alloys because more β–NiAl phases are obtained to sustain the Al2O3 scale repaired during hot corrosion. Pre-oxidized specimens have a superior hot corrosion resistance compared with the as-cast specimens, due to a protective oxide scale formed after pre-treatment.展开更多

Fracturemechanisms of thickness effect on mixed mode Ⅰ/Ⅱ fracture were first examined fromfracture surface morphology to correlate with the macroscopic fracture behavior andstress state. It is found that specimen thickness has a strong influence on mixed modefracture. As thickness varies from thin to thick the macroscopic fracture surfacesappear the characteristics of plane stress state (2mm, 4mm--thick specimen), three--dimensional stress state (8mm--thick specimens), and plane strain state (14mm--thickspecimens), respectively. The specimens of all kinds of thicknesses are typical of ten-sile type failure under mode Ⅰ loading condition and shear type failure under mode Ⅱloading condition. Two distinct features coexist on the fracture surfaces under mixedmode loading conditions, and the corresponding proportion varies with loading mix-ity. Void--growth processes are the failure mechanism in both predominately tensile-and shears--type fractures. The size and depth of dimples on the fracture surface varygreatly with thickness. Therefore, it is extraordinary necessary to take into accountthe thickness effect when a mixed mode fracture criterion is being established.展开更多

The solid state physicochemical properties including crystal structure, defect structure, IR spectrum, valence state of Bsite ion, nonstoichiometric oxygen, oxygenous species, the properties of oxidation and reduction etc. as well as the catalytic behavior for NO decomposition on these mixed oxides were investigated. The results show that all of these mixed oxide catalysts have high activity for the direct decomposition of NO(at 900 ℃ the conversion of NO is more than 90%). The effect of the substitution of light rare earth elements at Asite on catalytic behavior for NO decomposition was elucidated.展开更多

The crystals maintain spherulitic morphology, irrespective of the value of x, concentration of upper and lower reactants, gel pH, gel age and gel temperature. Formation Of Liesegang rings in this system is a temperature dependent phenomenon. It is shown that with the increase of the value of x the system passes from Liesegangring phenomenon to singlezone phenomenon. Operative mechanism of crystallization in the higher (35~40℃) and lower temperature ranges (25~30℃) is explained.
