XRD and SEM methods were utilized to characterize the crystalline and microstructure of each specimen, Rietveld Quantification software was used for the determination of different crystalline contents of specimens, and Philips plus software was applied to determine the cell parameters of aluminium titanate in different specimens. According to the experimental results, preferred calcining temperature is determined as 1400℃ and preferred holding time is 2 h, at which the grains of aluminum titanate grow completely and the purity of aluminum titanate is 97.2wt%.展开更多

Holding times of 5, 60, 180, and 480 seconds for an intercritical annealing temperature of 820℃ were adopted to investigate the evolution of the mierostructure and mechanical properties of ferrite-bainite dual-phase steel. The ferrite-bainite dual-phase steel was characterized by high strength and low yield ratio due to the presence of the constituents (polygonal ferrite, bainite, martensite and retained austenite) of the steel microstructure. Specimen 3 exhibits the highest value of A50 (7.67%) and a product of Rm × A50 (10453MPa%) after a 180s holding. This is likely attributed to the presence of a C-enriched retained anstenite in the microstructure. And the effect of martensite islands and carbide precipitate is thought to be able to contribute in strengthening the present steel. It is expected that equilibrium of anstenite fraction would be reached for reasonable intercritical holding period, regardless of the heating temperature. The results suggest that long increasing holding times may not be needed because the major phase of the microstructure does not change very significantly. It is favorable for industrial production of DP steels to shorten holding times. Key words: ferrite-bainite dual-phase steel; holding time; martensite islands; mechanical properties展开更多

The morphology and distribution of all phases present in the microstructure and the mechanical properties of TRIP steel were revealed. It appeared that the final tensile strength of the TRIP steel increased and retained austenite car bon content decreased with increasing holding time. An overlap between ferrite recrystallization and austenitization was observed during intercritical holding. In addition, the work hardening of the samples was evaluated by calculat ing the instantaneous ~l value as a function of the true strain. The difference in work hardening behavior corresponds to the rate of the retained austenite transformation during straining, which can be attributed to the carbon content and the morphology of the retained austenite.展开更多

The settling process of inclusion particles was investigated by measuring the contents of inclusions in the surface, center, and bottom layers of the molten metal. In the results, main inclusions observed and determined by Prefil and PoD FA methods are MgO, Al2O3, spinel(MgAl2O4), and TiB2 particles or thin films. It is found that some small particles of Al2O3 and MgO are transformed into spinel particles, and the formation rate increases as the temperature and the holding period of melt increase. The content of inclusions increases from 3.37 mm^2×kg^-1 to 7.54 mm^2×kg^-1 and then decreases to 3.08 mm^2×kg^-1 after holding for 90 min. This is attributed to a settling phenomenon and a significant increase in settling velocity after holding for 60 min. The content of inclusion particles decreases by means of settlement and flotation in liquid aluminum with an increase in holding time. The theoretical analysis and experiment results are in essential agreement with those from industrial production.展开更多

The characteristic parameters including the total yield, adsorption of methylene blue, adsorption of iodine, BET surface area, micro-pore volume are 35%—49%, 16.5—38 mg/g, 285—362 mg/g, 185—359 m2/g, and 0.112—0.224 m3/g, respectively. According to the experimental data, the multi-linear regression method was adopted to fit the relations between the characteristic parameters and influential factors. At final, through optimization method, the optimal adsorbent is obtained when using 62 min as hold time and 1105K as pyrolysis temperature. Under the conditions, the adsorbent was produced and compared the characteristic parameters with model forecast value, the coherence is satisfied.展开更多

It can shovel and compact dung of mammals into balls. It use foreleg to walk, midleg and hindleg to hold and impel dung ball. Its two foreleges as digging legs are developed. The factors impacting the nanoindentation testing results of the femur cuticle of forelegs of dung beetle Copris ochus Motschulsky were examined. The nanomechanical test instrument used for the tests was Hysitron nanomechanical system. The results shown that the holding time and loading time are important factors im- pacting the accuracy of such indentation properties as reduced modulus (Er) and the harness ( H ) of the femur cuticle of the forelegs of dung beetle Copris ochus Motschulsky in nanoscale. There exists a threshold holding time of 20 s for the reduced modulus of the femur cuticle. The tests of nanoindentation creep property and the regression analysis of relationship between the depth increment at the maximum load and the time further confirmed the correction of the above threshold holding time. There exist visco-elastic-plastic behaviour and creep phenomenon in the femur cuticle during indenting. Its creep property during the holding procedure at maximum load can be regressed by a general logarithmic equation. The equation fitted by the testing data is ? h = 54.83452 ln(0.00723t +1.00486), where, ? h is the depth increment at the maximum load and t is the time.展开更多

X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), together with relevant analysis software, were used to characterize the crystal phases and microstructures so as to get MgAl2O4. Results show that when increasing the holding time the amount of MgAl2O4 increases fwstly and then keeps stable, but bulk density and bending strength increase firstly and then decrease. The best holding time is determined to be 3 h because at this time the corresponding MgAl2O4 content is up to 93%, bulk density 3.23 g·cm^3, apparent porosity 4.6% and bending strength 122.4 MPa.展开更多

We discuss the effect of drying temperature, absolute pressure and the holding time on the deresination ratio in R massoniana wood and establish a model for the deresination ratio as a function of drying temperature, absolute pressure and holding time. The results show that the deresination ratio in- creased from 7.14% to 87.04% when the temperature increased from 150 to 200℃, the absolute pressure from 0.1 to 0.6 MPa and the holding time from 1 to 3 h. The optimal model for the deresination ratio (Y) with drying temperature (t), absolute pressure (p) and holding time (r) is: Y = 0.284t + 113.424p + 3.518r - 42.486, with a coefficient of determina- tion (R2) of 0.930. Compared with drying temperature and holding time, absolute pressure plays the more significant role in the deresination process. This study could provide a theoretical basis to the practical production of R massoniana wood.展开更多
