The MgO additive was able to promote the densification of the composites, but could not induce the grain growth of A1203 matrix due to the grain growth inhibition by nano-sized SiC particles. After HIP treatment, A12OJSiC nanocomposites achieved full densification and homogeneous distribution of nano-sized SiC particles. Moreover, the fracture morphology of HIP treated specimens was identical with that of the hot-pressed A1203/SiC nanocomposites showing complete transgranular fracture. Consequently, high fracture strength of 1 GPa was achieved for the A1203/5%SIC nanocomposites by pressureless sintering and post HIP process.展开更多

Scanning electron microscopy(SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy(EDS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) were employed to characterize the morphology and composition of the films fabricated in the electrolytes with and without addition of Si C nanoparticles. Results show that Si C particles can be successfully incorporated into the oxide film during the anodizing process and preferentially concentrate within internal cavities and micro-cracks. The ball-on-disk sliding tests indicate that Si C-containing oxide films register much lower wear rate than the oxide films without Si C under dry sliding condition. Si C particles are likely to melt and then are oxidized by frictional heat during sliding tests. Potentiodynamic polarization behavior reveals that the anodized alloy with Si C nanoparticles results in a reduction in passive current density to about 1.54×10-8 A/cm2, which is more than two times lower than that of the Ti O2 film(3.73×10-8 A/cm2). The synthesized composite film has good anti-wear and anti-corrosion properties and the growth mechanism of nanocomposite film is also discussed.展开更多

Therefore, an accurate evaluation of effective thermal conductivity （ETC） is a key for developing thermochemical heat storage systems. This paper focuses on the ETCs of commonly used por- ous thermochemical materials, such as MgOJMg（OH）2 and CaOJCa（OH）2 powders, as well as the corre- sponding composites with embedded metal foams. Random sphere-like particles packing （RSPP） method is proposed to reconstruct the microstructures of the powder and micro-scale generation method and computed tomography are adopted for the metal foams. Energy transport equations through porous media are solved by the lattice Boltzmann method （LBM） to obtain ETC. Results obtained using RSPP-LBM method agree with experimental data better than other existing methods. For thermochemical heat stor- age, the variation of ETC during chemical reactions is numerically predicted. Metal foam-embedded ther- rnochemical materials are also studied to evaluate the enhancing effects of the metal foams. Results show that ETC of the powders is dominated by the gas phase, whereas that of the metal foam composites is dominated by the metal Phase.展开更多

The reflect loss was less than -20 dB for all of the composites in different frequency ranges. The cube-like and walnut-like Fe3O4 composites exhibit improved complex permittivity and permeability and dual-frequency and wide bandwidth absorption characteristics, which is mainly attributed to the larger shape anisotropy. Such a high absorption property indicates that these porous Fe3O4 particles with various morphologies are very promising for electromagnetic wave absorptive materials.展开更多
