Corrosion resistance evaluation of highly dispersed MgO–MgAl2O4–ZrO2 composite and analysis of its corrosion mechanism: A chromium-free refractory for RH refining kilns

The corrosion resistance behavior of a highly dispersed MgO-MgAl2O4-ZrO2 composite refractory material is examined by testing with high-basicity and low-basicity RH(Ruhrstahl-Hereaeus)slags.The composite material exhibits greater resistance to the RH slags than the traditional MgO-Cr2O3 composite,MgO-ZrO2 composite,and MgO-MgAl2O4-ZrO2 composite.On the basis of the microstructural analysis and mechanisms calculations,the corrosion resistance behavior of the MgO-MgAl2O4-ZrO2 composite is attributable to its highly dispersed structure,which helps protect the high activity of ZrO2.When in contact with the slag,ZrO2 reacts with CaO to form the stable phase CaZrO3,which protects MgAl2O4 against corrosion,thereby enhancing the corrosion resistance of the composite.

Effective AC response of a nonlinear spherical coated composite

An effective nonlinear response of a nonlinear composite with spherical coated inclusions randomly embedded in a host medium under the action of an external AC electric field, Ea= E1 sin（wt） ＋ E3 sin（3wt）, is investigated using a perturbation method. The local potentials of the composite at higher harmonics are given both in the region of local inclusion particles and in the local host region under the external AC electric field. All effective nonlinear responses of the composite and the relationship between the effective nonlinear responses at the fundamental frequency and third harmonics are also studied for spherical coated inclusion in a dilute limit.

Evaluation of Dielectric Properties of CCTO-BT/Epoxy Composites for Electronic Applications

In the current study,the calcium copper titanate(CCTO)/epoxy,barium titanate(BT)/epoxy and CCTO-BT/epoxy composite samples with variable volume fractions of CCTO and BT are fabricated using hand lay-up and compression moulding process. The composite samples are characterized for the frequency dependence on dielectric properties,conductivity,impedance spectroscopy and electrical modulus.X-ray diffraction(XRD)representation of CCTO-BT/epoxy composite samples confirmed the presence of both CCTO and BT ceramic samples separately. The dielectric characteristics of hybrid CCTO-BT/epoxy composite samples with CCTO∶BT ratio of 40∶60, 60∶40,and 50∶50 was found relatively better than those of single ceramic filler reinforced epoxy composites. AC conductivity analysis shows improvement in the results of hybrid filler-filled CCTO-BT/epoxy composites in comparison with single filler-filled epoxy composite.50∶50 CCTO-BT/epoxy composite shows the best AC conductivity value of~ 2.2 ×10^(-5) ohm^(-1)·m^(-1) at a higher frequency of 1MHz. The impedance analysis confirms the higher insulating properties for hybrid 40∶60 and 60∶40 CCTO-BT/epoxy composites with respect to the single and other hybrid ceramic epoxy composites. The analysis suggests the hybrid CCTO-BT/epoxy composites to be adopted as a potential dielectric material for energy storage devices and other electronic applications.

GRAIN GROWING DYNAMICS OF MgO-CaO COMPOSITE CERAMICS

The grain growing dynamics including the growing process, the growing exponent and the growing activation energy is obtained for the MgO-CaO composite ceramics with the additions of Fe2O3, CeO2 and/or ZrO2 as fluxes by measuring the size of grains with the method of Straight Line Across. The results show that all of the additions, in which Fe2O3 is the strongest, have notable effects on the grain growing dynamics by reducing the growing activation energy and promoting the grain growing. The research gives a good reference for the additions of fluxes to the matrix of ceramic filter.

Effective Response of Nonlinear Composite under External AC and DC Electric Field

A perturbation method is used to study effective response of nonlinear Kerr composites, which are subject to the constitutive relation of electric displacement and electric field, Dα=εαE＋xα｜E｜^2E. Under the external AG and DC electric field Eapp = Eα（1 ＋ sinωt）, the effective nonlinear responses and local potentials are induced by the cubic nonlinearity of Kerr materials at all harmonics. As an example in three dimensions, we have investigated this kind of nonlinear composites with spherical inclusions embedded in a host. At all harmonic frequencies, the potentials in inclusion and host regions are derived. Furthermore, the formulae of the effective linear and nonlinear responses are given in the dilute Iimit.

Effective AC and DC Responses of Nonlinear Composites at Higher Concentration

For higher concentration of inclusions, an effective medium approximation （EMA） method is used to investigate the bulk effective response of weakly nonlinear composites, which are subject to the constitutive relation of electric displacement and electric field, Dα = εαE ＋Xα｜E｜^2 E. As an example of three dimensions, under the external AC and DC electric fields Eapp = Eα（1 ＋ sinωt）, we have derived the general effective nonh＇near response of composites by the EMA method for higher concentration of spherical inclusions. Furthermore, the effective nonlinear responses at harmonics are predicted.

Microstructure and properties of co-continuous(β-TCP+MgO)/Zn-Mg composite fabricated by suction exsorption for biomedical applications

The biomedical co-continuous(β-TCP+MgO)/Zn-Mg composite was fabricated by infiltrating Zn-Mg alloy into porousβ-TCP+MgO using suction exsorption technique.The microstructure,mechanical properties and corrosion behaviors of the composite were evaluated by means of scanning electron microscopy(SEM),X-ray diffraction(XRD),mechanical testing,electrochemical and immersion test.It was found that the molten Zn-Mg alloy had infiltrated not only into the pores but also into the struts of the porousβ-TCP+MgO scaffold to form a compact composite.The Zn-Mg alloy contacted to theβ-TCP+MgO scaffold closely,and no reaction layer can be found between the alloy and the scaffold.The compressive strength of the composite was as high as244MPa,which was about1000times higher than that of the original porousβ-TCP+MgO scaffold and2/3of the strength of the Zn-Mg bulk alloy.The electrochemical and immersion tests in simulated body fluid(SBF)solution indicated that the corrosion resistance of the composite was better than that of the Zn-Mg bulk alloy.The corrosion products on the composite surface were mainly Zn(OH)2.Appropriate mechanical and corrosion properties indicated that the(β-TCP+MgO)/Zn?Mg composite fabricated by suction exsorption would be a very promising candidate for bone substitute.

Microstructures and mechanical properties of MgAl_2O_4 particle-reinforced AC4C aluminum composites

MgAl2O4 particle-reinforced AC4C based alloy composites were fabricated by the stirring-casting method. The effects of the average sizes and the size distributions of MgAl2O4 particles on the dispersibility were investigated, and the microstructures, strength, and fatigue properties of MgAl2O4 particle-reinforced AC4C based alloy composites were evaluated. Tensile strength in the MgAl2O4 particle-reinforced AC4C based alloy composite was increased by using the classified particles. The fatigue limit at 107 cycles in the MgA1204 particle-reinforced AC4C-Cu composite increased by 27% compared to the unreinforced alloy at 250 ~C. Dislocations were observed in the matrix around the MgAl204 particle which resulted from the mismatch of thermal expansion coefficients between MgAl2O4 and Al, and resisted failure and caused fatigue cracks to propagate around the MgAl2O4 particles, resulting in extensive crack deflection and crack bowing which contributed to the improvement of fatigue strength.

Enhanced Mg/graphene interface adhesion using intermediate MgO layers:First-principles prediction and analysis

Graphene-reinforced Mg matrix composites suffer seriously from the weak Mg/graphene interfacial bonding.In this study,a first-principles study was performed to evaluate the feasibility of improving the Mg/graphene bonding using an in-situ formed intermediate MgO layer.The calculated interface adhesion strengths suggested a relative ordering(from high to low)of Mg(0001)/MgO(11−1)>MgO(11−1)/graphene>Mg(0001)/graphene.The enhanced Mg/MgO/graphene interface bonding can be attributed to the newly formed strong ionic and covalent interactions at the Mg/MgO and the MgO/graphene interfaces,respectively,which replace the otherwise very weak van der Waals bonding between Mg and graphene.
