Mechanical Properties and Solidified Mechanism of Tailings Mortar with Waste Glass

In order to improve the comprehensive utilization of solid waste such as iron tailings and waste glass and so on,mechanical property test of cement tailings mortar mixed waste glass and curing mechanism research were conducted in the key materials mechanics lab of Liaoning province.The experimental results show that adding waste glass particles can improve the grain size distribution of tailings.The effect is proportional to the content.The compressive strength of tailings mortar has increased significantly.The fineness modulus of tailings mortar mixture adding waste glass powder was gradually reducing with the increase of the dosage of waste glass powder,but the compressive strength of the mixture has gradually enhanced with the increase of the dosage.Microscopic analysis shows that the waste glass particles in the mortar mainly play a role of coarse aggregate and glass powder after grinding fine below a certain size shows strong volcanic activity,which can act hydration with tailings,at the same time glass powder also,plays a role in fine aggregate filling.Therefore,all of glass particles and glass powder can be used as the additive material for improving and optimizing the mechanical property of tailings mortar.

Analysis of Mechanical Properties of Injection Molded Short Glass Fibre (SGF)/Calcite/ABS Composites

Acrylonitrile-butadiene-Styrene (ABS), with and without calcium carbonate (calcite) particles,was used as the matrix for reinforcement with as-received short-glass fibres (were originallytreated by the manufacturer) and sized short-glass fibres with two amino-silane coupling agents.The calcite particle content is 0, 11.7 and 23.5 vol. pct for the matrices. The glass fiber contentis 0, 10 and 15 vol. pct. The matrix materials and corresponding composites were compoundedusing a twin screw extruder and dumbbell-shaped tensile bars were prepared with an injectionmolding process. The tensile and flexural properties as well as the unnotched and notchedCharpy impact energies of short glass fibre/calcite/ABS composites were studied in this paper.The effects of fibres, fibre surface treatments and particles on these mechanical properties ofthe composites were discussed in detail. An importarit information was obtained, which is thatthe tensile and flexural strengths of hybrid SGF/calcite/ABS composites are the same as thoseof corresponding fibre composites when the ratio of the interfacial adhesion strength betweenparticles and matrix to that between fibres and matrix is higher than certain value. otherwise theformer are lower than the latter.

High plastic Zr–Cu–Fe–Al–Nb bulk metallic glasses for biomedical applications

Four Zr–Cu–Fe–Al-based bulk metallic glasses（BMGs） with Zr contents greater than 65at% and minor additions of Nb were designed and prepared. The glass forming abilities, thermal stabilities, mechanical properties, and corrosion resistance properties of the prepared BMGs were investigated. These BMGs exhibit moderate glass forming abilities along with superior fracture and yield strengths compared to previously reported Zr–Cu–Fe–Al BMGs. Specifically, the addition of Nb into this quaternary system remarkably increases the plastic strain to 27.5%, which is related to the high Poisson＇s ratio and low Young＇s and shear moduli. The Nb-bearing BMGs also exhibit a lower corrosion current density by about one order of magnitude and a wider passive region than 316 L steel in phosphate buffer solution（PBS, pH 7.4）. The combination of the optimized composition with high deformation ability, low Young＇s modulus, and excellent corrosion resistance properties indicates that this kind of BMG is promising for biomedical applications.

Glass-forming ability（GFA） and mechanical properties of（Zr_（0.58）Nb_（0.03）Cu_（0.16）Ni_（0.13）Al_（0.10））_（100-x）Lu_x（x= 0-3 at%） alloys have been investigated.The GFA of Zr_（58）Nb_3Cu_（16）Ni_（13）Al_（10） alloy is dramatically enhanced by adding Lu.The（Zr_（0.58）Nb_（0.03）Cu_（0.16）Ni_（0.13）Al_（0.10））_（98）Lu_2 alloy possesses the highest GFA in the studied Zr-Nb-Cu-Ni-Al-Lu alloys,with its critical diameter for glass formation reaching 20 mm by copper-mould casting method,while that of the Lu-free Zr_（58）Nb_3Cu_（16）Ni_（13）Al_（10） alloy is 7 mm.The critical diameters of（Zr_（0.58）Nb_（0.03）Cu_（0.16）Ni_（0.13）Al_（0.10））_（100-x）Lu_x（x =1 at%and 3 at%） alloys are 15 mm and 12 mm,respectively.The Lu addition to Zr_（58）Nb_3Cu_（16）Ni_（13）Al_（10） alloy induces the change of initial crystallization phases from face-centred-cubic Zr_2Ni and tetragonal Zr_2Ni phases for the Lu-free Zr_（58）Nb_3Cu_（16）Ni_（13）Al_（10） alloy to an icosahedral quasi-crystalline phase for the Lu-doped alloys,which may be the origin for the enhanced GFA of the Lu-doped alloys.The compressive fracture strength and plastic strain of the bulk glassy（Zr_（0.58）Nb_（0.03）Cu_（0.16）Ni_（0.13）Al_（0.10））_（98）Lu_2 alloy are1 610 MPa and 1.5%,respectively.

Effect of Rare Earth and Transition Metal Elements on the Glass Forming Ability of Mechanical Alloyed Al–TM–RE Based Amorphous Alloys

The present work aims to compare the amorphous phase forming ability of ternary and quaternary Al based alloys （Al86Ni8Y6, Al86GNi6Y6Co2, Al86NigLa6 and Al86Ni8Y45La15） synthesized via mechanical alloying by varying the composition, i.e. fully or partially replacing rare earth （RE） and transition metal （TM） elements based on similar atomic radii and coordination number. X-ray diffraction and high resolution transmission electron microscopy study revealed that the amorphization process occurred through formation of various intermetallic phases and nanocrystalline FCC Al. Fully amorphous phase was obtained for the alloys not containing lanthanum, whereas the other alloys containing La showed partial amorphization with reappearance of intermetallic phases attributed to mechanical crystallization. Differential scanning calorimetry study confirmed better thermal stability with wider transformation temperature for the alloys without La.

Serrated plastic flow behavior and microstructure in a Zr-based bulk metallic glass processed by surface mechanical attrition treatment

The serrated plastic flow,microstructure and residual stress of a Zr_（55）Cu_（30）Ni_5Al_（10） bulk metallic glass（BMG）undergone surface mechanical attrition treatment（SMAT）have been investigated by a combination of compression tests with scanning electron microscopy（SEM）,high resolution transmission electron microscopy（HRTEM）and the incremental hole-drilling strain-gage method.It is found that SMAT leads to various microstructural modifications and residual stress distribution in the surface layers of the Zrbased BMG due to the mechanically-induced nanocrystallization and generation of shear bands.As a result,the BMG alloy exhibits a remarkable work-hardening like behavior and significant increase of plastic strain from less than 1%to 15%,and its plastic deformation dynamics yields a power-law distribution of shear avalanches.Based upon the analysis of the experimental results,it is indicated that this can be connected to the SMAT-induced microstructural modifications and the resulting residual compressive stress in the Zr-based BMG.

Flexural Strength and Weibull Analysis of Bulk Metallic Glasses

The flexural strength reliability of bulk metallic glasses （BMGs） plates is analyzed using Weibull statistics. The Weibull modulus （m） and characteristic strength （σ0） of the Zr48Cu45AI7 BMG are 34 and 2630 MPa, respectively, which are much higher than the values of fine ceramics （m 〈 30, σ0 〈 1600 MPa）. In particular, the m values obtained by flexural strength and compressive strength statistics of the Mg61Cu28Gd11 BMG are 5 and 33, respectively, indicating that the m values of BMGs are test method dependent, and only the m values obtained by flexural strength statistics can be used to make a convincible comparison with those of ceramics.

Mechanical and Magnetic Properties of New(Fe,Co,Ni)–B–Si–Ta Bulk Glassy Alloys

The alloying effects of the like-atom substitution of Ni and Co for Fe on the various properties of Fe_（70）B_（16.7）Si_（8.3）Ta_5 metallic glass are investigated in this present work. New Fe-based bulk glassy alloys, namely Fe_（60–x）Co_xNi_（10）B_（16.7）Si_（8.3）Ta_5（at.%;x = 10, 20 and 30） with critical diameters up to 1.5 mm, were made by means of copper mold casting.A new glass-forming ability indicator, viz., the enthalpy of supercooled liquid, has been introduced for assessment of the glass-forming abilities（GFAs） of these Fe-based multi-component alloys. Nano-indentation results indicate that the calculated elastic modulus and hardness of the bulk glassy alloys are lower than those of the Fe_（70）B_（16.7）Si_（8.3）Ta_5 alloy.Among these bulk glassy alloys, Fe_（70）B_（16.7）Si_（8.3）Ta_5 exhibits the large elastic modulus and hardness with values of 178 ± 1GPa and 12.9 ± 0.1 GPa, respectively. All the bulk glassy alloys exhibit good soft magnetic properties with high saturation magnetization Bs^0.75–1.04 T but low coercive force Hc^0.2–5.2 A/m.

Slowβrelaxation in La-based metallic glasses based on mechanical spectroscopy measurements

Dynamic mechanical relaxations of La-based metallic glasses were investigated by mechanical spectroscopy.In the framework of the mixing enthalpy of constituent atoms,it was found thatβrelaxation was less evident by the addition of Cu to replace Ni in the LaCuNiAl glassy alloy.By introducing Cu into the LaNiAl metallic glass,the mixing enthalpy was less negative,which led to weakerβrelaxation of the metallic glasses.Theαrelaxation of the La-based metallic glasses could be described by a Kohlrausch-Williams-Watts（KWW）function with a Kohlrausch exponentβKWW around 0.5.It should be noted that physical aging above the glass transition temperature Tginduced a decrease ofβrelaxation intensity in the La-based metallic glass.
