基于SEM的土体微观结构三维分析与分维计算方法

土体微观结构研究很早就建立了三维空间的分形模型,但分形维数计算所需参数很难由常规土工试验得到,限制了分形理论在土体研究中的应用。基于陕西定边与甘肃兰州原状土样的扫描电镜(SEM)试验,提出了三维化处理与三角形网格原理联合方法,可以得到土体颗粒(孔隙)不同测量尺度对应的表面积与体积计算值,由此实现分形维数的计算,并通过分形理论在土水特征中的应用验证了方法的有效性与可靠性。另外,三维化处理还可获取视孔隙率、比面等土体微观结构参数,可以作为土体微观结构定量分析研究的新途径。

小尺寸纳米颗粒的SEM高分辨成像模式探究——以Ni_(2)P为例

相比透射电子显微镜(TEM),扫描电子显微镜(SEM)具有批量进样、成本低、三维成像的优势,但小尺寸纳米颗粒在进行SEM成像时存在容易积碳、分辨率不足、形貌结构信息弱等技术难题。文章以超小空心(34.4 nm)、实心(13.3 nm)Ni_(2)P纳米颗粒为例,重点探究了如何通过调控工作模式、工作距离、加速电压、束流等参数获得分辨率高、形貌结构清晰的SEM图像。研究表明,高分辨模式下T2和超高分辨模式下T3探头所成二次电子(SE)像的分辨率明显优于标准模式下ETD探头的,且SE像表面形貌信息多、立体感较好。其中由于T3探头位置最高且仅收集高位二次电子信号,这部分二次电子信号进入透镜的角度准直且能量较低。因此超高分辨模式-T3探头所成SE像分辨率和信噪比最高、形貌衬度良好,但几乎观察不到颗粒内部结构。而高分辨和超高分辨模式下T1(背散射信号)探头所成BSE像成分衬度好,虽景深较小但最有利于观察空心结构。同时探究发现工作距离太小,所得SE像分辨率好但景深差,工作距离太大,SE像分辨率稍弱但景深较好。结合图像质量测量结果,对于文中的Ni_(2)P纳米颗粒,选择适中的工作距离(~8 mm)可获得质量较高的SE像。提升加速电压可有效提高图像分辨率(空心Ni_(2)P在30 kV下可达2.3 nm)。信噪比会随束流的增大而增强,其过大会导致颗粒边缘模糊,选择适中的束流(~0.2 nA)成像效果较好。以上研究结果对小尺寸及中空结构纳米颗粒的SEM成像选择具有一定的借鉴作用。

Evolution of pore systems in low-maturity oil shales during thermal upgrading--Quantified by dynamic SEM and machine learning

In-situ upgrading by heating is feasible for low-maturity shale oil,where the pore space dynamically evolves.We characterize this response for a heated substrate concurrently imaged by SEM.We systematically follow the evolution of pore quantity,size(length,width and cross-sectional area),orientation,shape(aspect ratio,roundness and solidity)and their anisotropy—interpreted by machine learning.Results indicate that heating generates new pores in both organic matter and inorganic minerals.However,the newly formed pores are smaller than the original pores and thus reduce average lengths and widths of the bedding-parallel pore system.Conversely,the average pore lengths and widths are increased in the bedding-perpendicular direction.Besides,heating increases the cross-sectional area of pores in low-maturity oil shales,where this growth tendency fluctuates at<300℃ but becomes steady at>300℃.In addition,the orientation and shape of the newly-formed heating-induced pores follow the habit of the original pores and follow the initial probability distributions of pore orientation and shape.Herein,limited anisotropy is detected in pore direction and shape,indicating similar modes of evolution both bedding-parallel and bedding-normal.We propose a straightforward but robust model to describe evolution of pore system in low-maturity oil shales during heating.

致密砂岩碳酸盐矿物SEM-CL和EPMA矿物学表征及其成岩意义——以川西坳陷须家河组为例

扫描电镜—阴极发光(SEM-CL)可通过同时分析矿物的微观结构和阴极发光特性来反映成岩机制及流体来源,但碳酸盐矿物在SEM-CL下的发光特性及其影响因素尚不明确。应用光学显微镜阴极发光(OM-CL)、电子探针(EPMA)和SEM-CL等技术手段,以川西坳陷须家河组致密砂岩中碳酸盐矿物为研究对象,分析碳酸盐矿物在OM-CL和SEM-CL下发光特性的差异,评估影响碳酸盐矿物SEM-CL发光特性的因素,探讨砂岩中方解石胶结物的成岩意义。结果表明,相比OM-CL,SEM-CL在区分碳酸盐岩屑和碳酸盐胶结物方面具有更高的灵敏度。当Mn/Fe值低于0.1或Mn/Fe值介于0.1~0.5且Fe含量低于0.1%时,碳酸盐矿物具有中低强度的SEM-CL发光强度;当Mn/Fe值高于0.5且Fe含量高于0.1%时,碳酸盐矿物在SEM-CL照射下几乎不发光。Mn/Fe值和Fe含量是影响SEM-CL照射下碳酸盐矿物发光强度的主要因素。阴极发光分析和EPMA元素组成面扫描分析表明,方解石胶结物的元素分布是均质的,形成于同一成岩世代,晚于长石等矿物的溶解。岩屑砂岩和岩屑石英砂岩的方解石胶结物具有相同的来源,表现为高Mn/Fe特征;钙屑砂岩的方解石胶结物具低Mn高Fe特征,成分组成与白云石岩屑相似,推测流体可能受到白云石岩屑溶解的影响。

Chalkiness Characters and Scanning Electron Microscope Observation of Rice Grain Endosperm of Japonica Varieties in Southern Henan

Chalkiness characters affect not only the grain appearance,milling,eating and cooking qualities but also the grain nutritional quality in rice,thus it is one of the most important traits in rice. It is very important for us to investigate the relation of the chalkiness formation and the development of endosperm structure and starch granule of different rice varieties. Here,we have investigated the chalkiness characters such as chalkiness rate,chalkiness degree and chalkiness area in 15 japonica rice varieties from southern Henan. Furthermore,the endosperm structure and starch granules of rice grain were also observed with scanning electron microscope. The results showed that the 15 japonica varieties have a significantly linear relationship between the chalkiness rate and chalkiness degree. Among the varieties,the biggest difference is the chalkiness rate,the second is the chalkiness area,and the last is the chalkiness degree. Moreover,there is a certain correlation between the distribution of starch granules,the arrangement of endosperm cells and the occurrence of grain chalkiness in the different rice varieties. For the same variety,the starch granules of chalky and non-chalky grains have obvious difference,while the starch granules from the transparent part of chalky rice and non-chalky rice do not have significant difference. The results would provide useful references for the improvement of grain quality in rice.

Adverse Effects of Permanent Waving and Hair Relaxation—Assessment by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM)

Permanent waving is very popular in Japan. Polypeptide chains (main chains) form the principal components of hair, and they are lined up longitudinally. Hair relaxation is also called straight permanent waving, and there are methods that change curly or wavy hair into straight hair. Hair damage as a result of winding, combing, and using high-temperature hairdressing irons is also often seen. By using scanning electron micrographs (SEM) we showed broken hairs and hair damage caused by permanent wave solutions. The hair damage is obvious when comparisons are made with the condition of the hair surface, condition of the cuticle, etc. Hair swelling by permanent wave solutions, manipulations such as winding, etc., inadequate rinsing with water, procedures on injured hair at the outset, etc., are considered possible reasons for any of these types of injury.

中国南方高成熟泥页岩有机质微观特征研究

页岩有机质孔隙对页岩气勘探开发有着重要的指示作用,对页岩气生成及运移机理的认知有着重要意义,是研究人员关注的焦点问题。本文采用自然断面制样方法,利用扫描电镜对中国南方高成熟泥页岩进行观察研究发现,有机质主要以三种形态存在于页岩中,一种是细微的颗粒状,微粒尺寸约10~100 nm,与周围矿物界限不明显;一种是呈块状,尺寸多超过10μm,断口表面光滑;一种是部分保留生物形态的有机质,从数量而言以前两种为主。结合有机质成因及特征,作者对其进行分类:第一种为干酪根,第二种为沥青,第三种为生物碎屑。干酪根和沥青中都可能生成孔隙,干酪根内孔隙尺寸较小,形态不规则,沥青中的孔隙尺寸较大,呈气泡状,孔壁较圆滑。因为在泥页岩中干酪根占比比固体沥青多,而且高成熟度的页岩中干酪根中普遍发育孔隙,沥青中较少发育孔隙,所以干酪根孔隙是有机质孔隙的主体。

不均匀卵石持力层桩端后注浆效果试验研究

我国东南沿海尤其是温州地区广泛存在上覆深厚软土下覆不均匀卵石的地层。该区域的钻孔灌注桩常采用后注浆技术改善其承载性能。为了评价后注浆技术对这类地层中灌注桩承载力改善效果,开展了相应的模型试验,对比了不同注浆量对桩承载力的影响程度;并结合扫描电镜(scanning electron microscope,简称SEM)试验分析了浆液分布特点,探讨了浆液在卵石层中的扩散范围,研究了浆液扩散范围与桩承载力之间的关系。结果表明:浆液能够有效地填充桩端卵石层,注浆量的增加使得填充范围扩大,填充范围为3~4倍桩径时,桩的承载力改善最显著。在不均匀卵石持力层中存在一个最优注浆量,最优归一化注浆量约为2.8,若超过该最优注浆量归一化值,桩的承载力不再显著提高。单桩模型试验确定的最优注浆量与刘金砺公式[1]的预测结果接近。扫描电镜技术有助于评价桩的后注浆技术在上覆深厚软土下覆不均匀卵石的土层中的效果。
