It is shown that Yb2-xAlxMo3012 solid solutions crystallize in a single monoclinic phase for 1.7 〈 x 〈 2.0 and in a single orthorhombic phase for 0.0 〈 x 〈 0,4, and exhibit the characteristics of both monoclinic and orthorhombic structures outside these compositional ranges. The monoclinic to orthorhonlbic phase transition temperature of A12Mo3012 can be reduced by partial substitution of A13+ by Yb3+, and the Yb2-zAlxMo3012 (0.0 〈 x 〈 2.0) materials are hydrated at room temperature and contain two kinds of water species. One of these interacts strongly with and hinders the motions of the polyhedra, while the other does not. The partial substitution of A13+ for Yb3+ in Yb2Mo3012 decreases its hygroscopicity, and the linear thermal expansion coefficients after complete removal of water species are measured to be -9.1 x 10-6/K, -5.5 x 10-6/K, 5.74 x 10-6/K, and 9.5 x 10 6/K for Ybl.sAlo.2(MoO4)3, Yb1.6Alo.4(MoO4)3, Ybo.4All.6(Mo04)3, and Ybo.2Al1.8(MoO4)3, respectively.展开更多

It is found that Cr2-xZr0.5xMg0.5xMo3O12 crystallize into monoclinic structures for x 〈 1.3 and orthorhombic structures for x _〉 1.5 at room temperature. The phase transition temperature from a monoclinic to an orthorhombic structure of Cr2Mo3O12 can be reduced by the partial substitution of (ZrMg)6+ for Cr3+. The overall linear thermal expansion coefficient decreases with the increase of the (ZrMg)6+ content in an orthorhombic structure sample. The co-incorporation of Zr4+ and Mg2+ in the lattice results in the occurrence of new Raman modes and the hardening of the symmetric vibrational modes, which are attributed to the MoO4 tetrahedra sharing comers with ZrO6/MgO6 octahedra and to the strengthening of Mo-O bonds due to less electronegativities of Zr4+ and Mg2+ than Cr3+, respectively.展开更多

The hydrate precursor was dehydrated at 473 K and transformed to a NTE cubic compound above 800 K. A novel intermediate phase o-ZrW_ 1.6 Mo_ 0.4 O_8 occurs between the temperature range of 573—800 K. The XRD pattern of novel intermediate was refined with the structural model of LT-ZrMo_2O_8 by using Rietveld method. The residuals are R_ wp =7.80% and R_p=5.79%. The space group is Pmn2_1 and the lattice parameters are a=0.5917(4) nm, b=0.7273(4) nm, c=0.9148(6) nm, and Z=2.展开更多

It was shown that refinement of foil microstructural elements to nanoscale is accompanied by their microhardness increase up to 4-5 GPa. The change of the thermal expansion coefficient (TEC) of the nanostructured (NS) foil of the Fe-35.1Ni alloy within the temperature range from -50 to 150 ℃ has some deviation from that observed for cast Invar alloy of the same composition. It has been found that the main factors affecting the peculiarities of thermal expansion of the NS foil can be related to the presence of small fraction of BCC- phase in them, high level of crystalline lattice microstrains and inhomogeneous magnetic order in FCC- phase. It was shown that as a result of additional thermal treatment of NS foils their invar properties become similar to that observed for cast Invar alloy but mechanical properties remain on the same level.展开更多
