The samples with and without yttria were subjected to thermogravimetric/differential scanning calorimetry measurement. The samples were heat treated at the temperatures corresponding to the peaks on the DSC spectra, and the resulted phase compositions were identified by X-ray diffraction. The transformation mechanism was deduced by comparing the phases obtained at different temperatures. The results show that the transformations at below 1073 K are not affected by yttria, but all those at above 1073 K are completely altered. The formation tem-perature of hydroxyapatite decreases by 134 K, and the decomposition temperature increases by 38 K. The polymorphous transformation of Ca3(PO4)2 from β phase to α phase increases by 47 K. The thermodynamic properties of the transformations at above 1073 K are also modi-fied by the addition of yttria; that is, the endothermal peaks are substituted by exothermal peaks.展开更多

The formation of a SrCl<sub>2</sub> ammine complex was selected as the reaction system for the purpose of this study. Discharge characteristics were evaluated in a packed bed reactor for both the gas-solid reaction and the liquid-solid reaction. The average power of the gas-solid reaction was influenced by the pressure of the supplied ammonia gas, with greater powers being recorded at higher ammonia pressure. For the liquid-solid reaction, the obtained average power was comparable to that obtained for the gas-solid reaction at 0.2 MPa. Moreover, the lower heat transfer resistance in the reactor was observed, which was likely caused by the presence of liquid ammonia in the system. Finally, the short-term durability of the liquid-solid reaction system was demonstrated over 10 stable charge/discharge cycles.展开更多

Here in, we report a simple single step approach for the in-situ synthesis of combined cobalt sulphide/cobalt oxide in polyphenylenesulphide (PPS) polymer matrix. We have illustrated the suitability of this methodology by reacting commonly available cobalt precursors with engineering thermoplastic, PPS. The cobalt precursor was homogeneously mixed with PPS in the molar ratios of 1:1, 1:5, 1:10, 1:15, respectively, followed by heating the mixtures obtained at the melting temperature of the polymer (285?C) for six hours. The resultant products were characterized by X-ray Diffractometry (XRD), Field-Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscope (HRTEM), Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy (DRS) technique and Fourier Transformation Infra red Spectroscopy (FTIR). Formation of mixed phases viz., sulphide and oxide of cobalt within modified PPS matrix was confirmed by XRD. The resultant nanoparticles of cobalt sulphide and cobalt oxide embedded in the PPS matrix showed crooked and chunk morphology. The optical properties of the resultant nanocomposites indicate the shift in the absorption hump due to nanoscale size effect.展开更多

The influence of H2/N2 gas ratio, temperature and time on nitriding process of fine (-2 mm) medium carbon ferromanganese were investigated. Nitrogen content, in weight percent ranging from 2.1 to 9.7 could be obtained. The optimum temperature and time of nitriding process was found to be 1223 K and 21.6 ks respectively. The results showed that nitrogen content is mainly depending on time and temperature of nitriding process. The comparison between results of lab and bench scale, at optimum conditions, showed good coincidence. At optimum conditions;1223 K, 21.6 ks and at 2/8 of H2/N2, nitrogen content of fine medium carbon ferromanganese was 9.5%.展开更多

MgO powders and iron ore particles were mixed and compressed into briquettes and, subsequently, roasted at different temperatures and for different time periods. A Mg-containing layer was observed on the outer edge of the iron ore particles when the roasting temperature was greater than 1173 K. The concentration of Fe in the Mg-containing layer was evenly distributed and was approximately 10wt%, regardless of the temperature change. Boundary layers of Mg and Fe were observed outside of the iron ore particles. The change in concentration of Fe in the boundary layers was simulated using a gas–solid diffusion model, and the diffusion coefficients of Fe and Mg in these layers at different temperatures were calculated. The diffusion activation energies of Fe and Mg in the boundary layers in these experiments were evaluated to be approximately 176 and 172 k J/mol, respectively.展开更多

The results show that the NiSn phase and Ni3Sn4 phase are formed, respectively, in the aged couples and annealed couples. The Ni3Sn4 layer is continuously distributed between the Ni and Sn sides in the annealed Ni/Sn couples. The Ni3Sn4 growth follows parabolic growth kinetics with an apparent activation energy of 39.0 kJ/mol.展开更多

MnSi_(1.73) phase exhibits preferredgrowth after irradiation with infrared. In situ four-point probe measurements of sheet resistanceduring infrared irradiation annealing show that nucleation of MnSi and phase transformation of MnSito MaSi_(1.73) occur at 410 deg C and 530 deg C, respectively; the MnSi phase shows metallicbehavior, while MnSi_(1.73) exhibits semiconducting behavior. Characteristic phonon bands ofMnSi_(2-x) silicides, which can be used for phase identification along with conventional XRDtechniques, have been observed by FTIR spectroscopy.展开更多

文摘Thermochemical heat storage is a promising technology for improving energy efficiency through the utilization of low-grade waste heat. The formation of a SrCl<sub>2</sub> ammine complex was selected as the reaction system for the purpose of this study. Discharge characteristics were evaluated in a packed bed reactor for both the gas-solid reaction and the liquid-solid reaction. The average power of the gas-solid reaction was influenced by the pressure of the supplied ammonia gas, with greater powers being recorded at higher ammonia pressure. For the liquid-solid reaction, the obtained average power was comparable to that obtained for the gas-solid reaction at 0.2 MPa. Moreover, the lower heat transfer resistance in the reactor was observed, which was likely caused by the presence of liquid ammonia in the system. Finally, the short-term durability of the liquid-solid reaction system was demonstrated over 10 stable charge/discharge cycles.

In situ four-point probe measurements of sheet resistanceduring infrared irradiation annealing show that nucleation of MnSi and phase transformation of MnSito MaSi_(1.73) occur at 410 deg C and 530 deg C, respectively; the MnSi phase shows metallicbehavior, while MnSi_(1.73) exhibits semiconducting behavior. Characteristic phonon bands ofMnSi_(2-x) silicides, which can be used for phase identification along with conventional XRDtechniques, have been observed by FTIR spectroscopy.
文摘Wollastonite, a mineral of wide industrial applications was synthesised from rice husk ash silica and limestone. A number of raw batches consisting of these starting materials, in 1:1 molar ratio, were heat treated to produce it through solid state reaction from 900℃ to 1300℃. The conducted reaction was monitored by XRD step by step. Amount of Wollastonite formed at every temperature was also studied to some extent. Analyses of the obtained data indicated that the target mineral formation was quite effective and almost proportional to a rise in temperature up to 1200℃. The results from both, XRD and chemical analysis were found in fair agreement with one another

文摘Lithium-excess manganese layered oxides, which are commonly described in chemical formula 0.5Li2MnO3·0.5LiMn0.5Ni0.5O2, were prepared by low-heating solid state reaction. The reaction mechanisms of synthesizing precursors, the decomposition mechanism, and intermediate materials in calcination were investigated by means of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The major diffraction patterns of 0.5Li2MnO3·0.5LiMn0.5Ni0.5O2 powder calcinated at 720℃ for 15 h are indexed to the hexagonal structure with a space group of R3m, and the clear splits of doublets at (006)/(102) and (108)/(110) indicate that the sample adopts a well-layered structure. FESEM images show that the size of the agglomerated particles of the sample ranges from 100 to 300 nm.

文摘Mesoporous chromium aluminophosphate (CrAIPO) was successfully synthesized via solid state reaction (SSR) route at low temperature in the presence of a cationic surfactant cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) and inorganic sources such as A1C13 · 6H20, CrCI3 · 6H20 and NaH2PO4 · 2H20. Characterizations by means of powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption- desorption, high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), scanning electron micrography (SEM), energy dispersion spectroscopy (EDS), thermo-gravimetry (TG), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and ultraviolet visible light spectroscopy (UV-Vis) were carried out to understand both the pore characteristics and electron transition route of these obtained materials. The experimental results show that the meso-CrA1PO materials with various Cr/A1 molar ratios possess a mesostructure and a specific surface area of 193 to 310 m2/g corresponding to an average pore size of 5.5 to 2.2 rim, respectively. The maxium content of Cr in meso-CrA1PO materials synthesized via SSR route can achieve 16.7wt%, being significantly higher than that of the meso-CrA1PO prepared via a conventional sol-gel route. Meanwhile, the formation mechanism of the meso-CrA1PO was also proposed.

文摘A single crystalline Mg2Si film was formed by solid phase reaction (SPR) of a Si(111) substrate with an Mg overlayer capped with an oxide layer(s),which was enhanced by post annealing from room temperature to 100℃ in a molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) system.The thermal stability of the Mg2Si film was then systematically investigated by post annealing in an oxygen-radical ambient at 300℃,450℃ and 650℃,respectively.The Mg2Si film stayed stable until the annealing temperature reached 450℃ then it transformed into amorphous MgOx attributed to the decomposition of Mg2Si and the oxidization of dissociated Mg.
