The research focused on the mechanism by the methods of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, polarization curves and IR spectroscopy. The results indicate that the corrosion inhibition effectiveness is attributed to the joint inhibition of anodic zinc dissolution and cathodic hydrogen evolution. And the anodic process is depressed to a greater extent than the cathodic process. The synergistic mechanism of the composite inhinbitors proves to be the enhancement of adsorption of PEG600 by In(OH)3. Potentiostatic experiment results and SEM images verify the inhibition of dendritic growth by the composite inhibitors.展开更多

It is found that there exists a critical undercooling about 185 K, beyond which a 揹endrite-equiaxed?growth morphology transition occurs in FeAl intermetallic compound. This transition is character-ized by sharp decrease of its grain size. Once the undercool-ing exceeds 215 K, the peritectic transformation is sup-pressed completely and a fibrous structure is formed, which results from the cooperative growth of FeAl and FeAl2 com-pounds.展开更多

Results show that both the real growth direction and morphological shapes of dendritic arrays change with the primary spacing for different misorientation angles(θ0). It has been found that the lower limit of primary spacing is independent of θ0, but the upper limit of primary spacing is strongly influenced by that. The two kinds of tertiary branching instabilities result in different behaviors of the variation of the upper limit with misorientation angle for different pulling velocities.展开更多

文摘Fe-58at%Al alloy is undercooled up to 222 K (0.15TL) with the drop tube technique. It is found that there exists a critical undercooling about 185 K, beyond which a 揹endrite-equiaxed?growth morphology transition occurs in FeAl intermetallic compound. This transition is character-ized by sharp decrease of its grain size.
