Mechanical properties of Mg-6Gd-1Y-0.5Zr alloy processed by low temperature thermo-mechanical treatment

An as-solution treated Mg-6Gd-1Y-0.4Zr alloy was processed by low temperature thermo-mechanical treatments （LT-TMT）, including cold tension with various strains followed by aging at 200 °C to peak hardness. The results show that the precipitation kinetics of the alloy experienced LT-TMT is greatly accelerated and the aging time to peak hardness is greatly decreased with increasing tensile strain. The tensile yield strength, ultimate tensile strength and elongation at room temperature of the alloy after cold tension with strain of 10% and peak aging at 200 °C are 251 MPa, 296 MPa and 8%, respectively, which are superior to the commercial heat-resistant WE54 alloy, although the latter has a higher rare earth element content.

Effect of low temperature thermo-mechanical treatment on microstructures and mechanical properties of TC4 alloy

The effects of low temperature thermo-mechanical treatment （LTTMT） on microstructures and mechanical properties of Ti-6Al-4V （TC4） alloy were studied by optical microscopy （OM）, tensile test, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and transmission electron microscopy （TEM）. The experimental results confirm that the strength of TC4 alloy can be improved obviously by LTTMT processing, which combines strain strengthening with aging strengthening. The effect of LTTMT on the alloy depends on the microstructure of the refined and dispersed a＋fl phase on the basis of high dislocation density by pre-deformation below recrystallization temperature. The tensile strength decreases with the increase of pre-deformation reduction. The optimal processing parameters of LTTMT for TC4 alloy are as follows： solution treatment at 900 ℃ for 15 min, pre-deformation in the range of 600-700 ℃ with a reduction of 35%, finally aging at 540 ℃ for 4 h followed by air-cooling.

Comparison of mechanical properties in high temperature and thermal treatment granite

Static mechanical experiments were carried out on granite after and under different temperatures using an electro-hydraulic and servo-controlled material testing machine with a heating device. Variations in obvious form, stress-strain curve, peak strength, peak strain and elastic modulus with temperature were analyzed and the essence of rock failure modes was explored. The results indicate that, compared with granite after the high temperature treatment, the brittle-ductile transition critical temperature is lower, the densification stage is longer, the elastic modulus is smaller and the damage is larger under high temperature. In addition, the peak stress is lower and the peak strain is greater, but both of them change more obviously with the increase of temperature compared with that of granite after the high temperature treatment. Furthermore, the failure modes of granite after the high temperature treatment and under high temperature show a remarkable difference. Below 100 ℃, the failure modes of granite under both conditions are the same, presenting splitting failure. However, after 100 ℃, the failure modes of granite after the high temperature treatment and under high temperature present splitting failure and shear failure, respectively.

Influence of High Temperature Treatment on the Performance of Nickel-Induced Laterally Crystallized Thin Film Transistors

Well known for their good performance,thin film transistors (TFTs) with active layers which were nickel induced laterally crystallized,are fabricated by conventional process of dual gate CMOS.The influence of pre high temperature treatment of device fabrication on the performance of TFTs is also investigated.The experiment shows that the high temperature treatment affects the performance of the devices strongly.The best performance is obtained by adopting pre treatment of 1000℃.The mobility of 314cm 2/(V·s) is obtained at NMOS TFTs with pre treatment of 1000℃,which is 10% and 22% higher than that treated at 1100℃ and without pre high temperature treatment,respectively.A maximum on/off current ratio of 3×10 8 is also obtained at 1000℃.Further investigation of uniformity verifies that the result is reliable.

Effects of High Temperature Treatment on Seed Germination of Dodonaea viscosa(L.) Jacq

Seeds of Dodonaea viscosa （L.） Jacq, a representative species in dry and hot valleys in Southwest China, were chosen as experimental materials. In this experiment, the D. viscosa seeds were treated at 40, 60, 80 and 100℃ respectively before germination to study impacts of high temperature treatment on their generation rate and to further discuss the roles of fire during the process of vegetation formation in dry and hot valley areas of China. The results show that when the temperature was higher than 40 ℃, the germination rate of D. viscosa seeds was significantly higher than that of the control group, and the heat shock effect was apparent. The germination rate was the highest when the seeds were treated at 80 ℃ for 10 min, reaching 63.00%±2.55%. There was still a significant heat shock effect on the D. viscosa seeds which were stored for one year. In comparison with the conventional method of soaking seeds in hot water, the germination rate of D. viscose seeds which were treated at high temperature before germination increased significantly.

Carbon spheres prepared via solvent-thermal reaction method and their microstructures after high temperature treatment

Carbon spheres with size of 50-300 nm were synthesized via a solvent-thermal reaction with calcium carbide and chloroform as reactants in a sealed autoclave.The morphologies and microstructures of carbon spheres before and after high temperature treatment(HTT) were characterized by X-ray diffractometry(XRD) ,scanning electronic microscopy(SEM) ,energy diffraction spectroscopy(EDS) ,and transmission electron microscopy(TEM) .The formation mechanism of carbon spheres was discussed.The results indicate that the carbon spheres convert to hollow polyhedron through HTT.Carbon spheres are composed of entangled and curve graphitic layers with short range order similar to cotton structure,and carbon polyhedron with dimension of 50-250 nm and shell thickness of 15-30 nm.The change of solid spheres to hollow polyhedron with branches gives a new evidence for formation mechanism of hollow carbon spheres.

Effect of high temperature heat treatment on pH value of Masson Pine wood

Heat-treated wood has good dimensional stability,corrosion resistance and visual quality,but it is prone to mold,which limits its application.Based on the pH value of heat-treated wood,this study examines the factors affecting the pathogenesis causing heat-treated wood mold.Normally,the pH value of the heat-treated wood is between 4.38 and 5.10,which is suitable for the growth of mold.However,the pH of the heat-treated copper-containing material is between 6.63 and 7.12,which deviates the treated wood from the comfortable growth conditions for the mold,thereby reducing the occurrence of mold.

High temperature mechanical behavior of low-pressure sand-cast Mg-Gd-Y-Zr magnesium alloy

The aim of this work is firstly to optimize T6 heat-treatment of low-pressure sand-cast Mg-10Gd-3Y-0.5Zr alloy,and then systematically investigate the mechanical behavior of the T6-treated alloy from room temperature to 300℃.It turned out that the optimum T6 heat-treatments for the tested alloy are 525℃×12 h+225℃×14 h and 525℃×12 h+250℃×12 h which integrated age-hardening and tensile properties into account,respectively.The strength of the T6-treated alloy indicates obvious anomalous temperature dependence from room temperature to 300℃,namely both ultimate tensile strength and yield strength of the tested alloy firstly increase with tensile temperature,and then decrease as temperature increases further.Elongation increased with temperature monotonously.The tensile fracture mode of the tested alloy changes from transgranular fracture to intergranular fracture with the increasing of test temperature.

Simulation Analysis and Verifcation of Temperature and Stress of Wheel-Mounted Brake Disc of a High-Speed Train

During the braking process,a large amount of heat energy is generated at the friction surfaces between the brake disc and pads and rapidly dissipates into the disc volume.In this paper,a three-dimensional thermo-mechanical coupling model of high-speed wheel-mounted brake discs containing bolted joints and contact relationships is established.The direct coupling method is used to analyze the temperature and stress of the brake discs during an emergency braking event with an initial speed of 300 km/h.A full-scale bench test is also conducted to monitor the temperatures of the friction ring and bolted joints.The simulation result shows that the surface temperature of the friction ring reaches its peak value of 414°C after 102 s of braking,which agrees well with the bench test result.The maximum alternating thermal stress occurs in the bolt hole where the maximum circumferential compressive stress is−658 MPa and the maximum circumferential tensile stress is 134 MPa.During the braking process,the out-of-plane deformation of the middle part of the friction ring is larger than that of the edge,which increases the axial tensile load of the connecting bolt.This work provides support for the design of brake discs and connecting bolts.

Polyphenol content and antioxidant activity in mulberry powder treated at high temperature

The aim of this study was to investigate changes of polyphenols content and the antioxidant activity of mulberry fruit powder after heating at high temperature.The mulberry fruit powder was heated by baking method at different temperature and time.The DPPH scavenging ability,the OH^(•-) scavenging ability and the O_(2)^(•-) scavenging ability were used to evaluate the changes in the antioxidant activity of the mulberry fruit powder after the heat treatment.The results showed that 74.87%of the polyphenols in the mulberry powder were lost after heating at 150℃for 5 min,and almost all the polyphenols were lost with the increase of the heating time and temperature.The antioxidant experiment showed that the DPPH scavenging rate,OH^(•-) scavenging rate and O_(2)^(•-) scavenging rate of mulberry fruit powder were 68.90%,39.15%and 14.09%,respectively after treatment at 150℃ for 5 min.Mulberry fruit powder still has some potential to be added to baked goods as a functional ingredient.

INFLUENCE OF HEAT TREATMENT ON OXIDATION PROPERTIES OF C/C COMPOSITES FABRICATED BY HIGH PRESSURE IMPREGNATION CARBONIZATION

Felt base carbon/carbon composites fabricated by super-high pressure impregnation carbonization process (SPIC) were heat treated at high temperature 2773K. The oxidation properties of felt base carbon/carbon composites were investigated at different temperatures (773-1173K), and the microstructures of carbon/carbon composites were studied by SEM and X-ray diffraction. The experimental results showed that the inter-laminar distance of (002) plane (d002) deceased while the microcrystalline stack height (Lc) increased. The oxidation rate of felt base carbon/carbon composites was invari-able at certain temperatures. The oxidation mechanism of carbon/carbon composites changed remarkably at the oxidation temperature 973K. At the initial oxidation stage of carbon/carbon composites, carbon matrix was oxidized much more rapidly than carbon felt.

Coupled thermo-mechanical constitutive damage model for sandstone

Underground rock dynamic disasters are becoming more severe due to the increasing depth of human operations underground.Underground temperature and pressure conditions contribute significantly to these disasters.Therefore,it is important to understand the coupled thermo-mechanical(TM)behaviour of rocks for the long-term safety and maintenance of underground tunnelling and mining.Moreover,investigation of the damage,strength and failure characteristics of rocks under triaxial stress conditions is important to avoid underground rock disasters.In this study,based on Weibull distribution and Lemaitre's strain equivalent principle,a statistical coupled TM constitutive model for sandstone was established under high temperature and pressure conditions.The triaxial test results of sandstone under different temperature and pressure conditions were used to validate the model.The proposed model was in good agreement with the experimental results up to 600℃.The total TM damage was decreased with increasing temperature,while it was increased with increasing confining pressure.The model's parameters can be calculated using conventional laboratory test results.

Low-temperature Rapid Synthesis of Ultrafine Hafnium Carbide Ceramic Powders

Nano hafnium carbide（HfC） powders were synthesized by sol-gel combining hightemperature rapid heat treatment process using citric acid and hafnium tetrachloride as the raw materials.
