Growth mechanism of primary silicon in cast hypoeutectic Al-Si alloys

The microstructural features of hypoeutectic AI-10%Si alloy were observed using optical microscopy and electron backscatter diffraction. The results show that primary silicon particles are frequently found in hypoeutectic alloys. Hence, the nucleation and growth mechanisms of the precipitation of primary silicon of hypoeutectic Al-10%Si alloy melts were investigated. It was discovered that Si atoms are easy to segregate and form Si-Si clusters, which results in the formation of primary silicon even in eutectic or hypoeutectic Al-Si alloys. In addition, solute redistribution caused by chemical driving force and large pile-ups or micro-segregation of the solute play an important role in the formation of the primary silicon, and the solute redistribution equations were derived from Jackson-Chalmers equations. Once Si solute concentration exceeds eutectic composition, primary silicon precipitates are formed at the front of solid/liquid interface.

Liquid phase separation and subsequent dendritic solidification of ternary Fe_(35)Cu_(35)Si_(30) alloy

Liquid Fe35Cu35Si30alloy has achievedthemaximum undercooling of 328 K （0.24TL） with glass fluxing method, and it displayed triple solidification mechanisms. A critical undercooling of 24 K was determined for metastable liquid phase separation. At lower undercoolings,α-Fe phase was the primary phase and the solidification microstructure appeared as homogeneous well-defined dendrites. When the undercooling exceeded 24 K, the sample segregated into Fe-rich and Cu-rich zones. In the Fe-rich zone, FeSi intermetallic compound was the primary phase within the undercooling regime below 230 K, while Fe5Si3intermetallic compound replaced FeSi phase as the primary phase at larger undercoolings. The growth velocity of FeSi phase increased whereas that ofFe5Si3 phase decreased with increasing undercooling. For the Cu-rich zone, FeSi intermetallic compound was always the primary phase. Energy-dispersive spectrometry analyses showed that the average compositions of separated zones have deviated substantially from the original alloycomposition.

Macrosegregation and thermosolutal convection-related freckle formation in directionally solidified Sn−Ni peritectic alloy in crucibles with different diameters

Different from other alloys,the observation in this work on the dendritic mushy zone shows that the freckles are formed in two different regions before and after peritectic reaction in directional solidification of Sn−Ni peritectic alloys.In addition,the experimental results demonstrate that the dendritic morphology is influenced by the temperature gradient zone melting and Gibbs−Thomson effects.A new Rayleigh number(Ra_(P))is proposed in consideration of both effects and peritectic reaction.The prediction of Ra_(P) confirms the freckle formation in two regions during peritectic solidification.Besides,heavier thermosolutal convection in samples with larger diameter is also demonstrated.

Influence of Li_3PO_4 addition on properties of lithium ion-conductive electrolyte Li_(1.3)Al_(0.3)Ti_(1.7)(PO_4)_3

The sintered Li1.3Al0.3Ti1.7（PO4）3 pellets with different mole fractions of Li3PO4 were prepared by sol-gel method.The structure,surface morphology,electrochemical window,ionic conductivity and activation energy of the sintered pellets were studied by X-ray diffraction,scan electron microscopy,cyclic voltammetry,and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy.The results show that all the sintered Li1.3Al0.3Ti1.7（PO4）3 pellets with different mole fractions of Li3PO4 have similar X-ray diffraction patterns.The sintered Li1.3Al0.3Ti1.7（PO4）3 pellet with Li3PO4 shows a lower porosity and is denser than the one without Li3PO4.The addition of Li3PO4 has a large effect on the porosity and density of the sintered Li1.3Al0.3Ti1.7（PO3）4 pellet,and little effect on its electrochemical window.Among the sintered Li1.3Al0.3Ti1.7（PO3）4 pellets with different mole fractions of Li3PO4,the one with 1% Li3PO4 shows the activation energy of 0.314 2 eV and the highest ionic conductivity of 6.15-10-4 S/cm.

Study on Properties of Composite Oxides TiO_2/SiO_2

The nanometer particles of TiO_2 and TiO_2/SiO_2 oxides wereprepared by sol-gel supercritical fluid drying method. The propertiesof TiO_2 and TiO_2/SiO_2 were characterized by means of BET(Brunner-Emmett- Teller method), TEM (transmission electronmicroscopy), SEM (scanning electron microscopy), XRD (X-ray diffrac-tion) and FTIR (Fourier transform-infrared) techniques. The effectsof different preparation route, prehydrolysis and non-prehydrolysis,on the properties of TiO_2/SiO_2 oxide were also examined.

Effect of growth rate on microstructure and solute distribution of Al-Zn-Mg alloy

An Al-5.3%Zn-5.3%Mg alloy was unidirectionally solidified to determine morphological transition and solute distribution by a modification of the Bridgman technique for crystal growth with growth rates ranging from 4-500 μm/s and a temperature gradient of 25 K/cm. It was determined that growth rates from 6.5-9.5 μm/s generated a cell morphology, where the lower limit corresponds to the plane front to cellular transition and the upper limit indicates the cellular to columnar dendrite transition. The microstructures of the alloys solidified from 30 μm/s to growth rates less than 500 μm/s were mainly composed of columnar dendrites, while the microstructures solidified at growth rates greater than 500 μm/s were equiaxed. Regarding experimental results on solute distribution, a prediction of the model developed by Rappaz and Boettinger for dendrite solidification of multicomponent alloys was applied with excellent agreement. Results of solute distribution were employed to derive the precipitation fraction of τ-phase needed to increase the electrochemical properties of the alloy to be used as an Al-sacrificial anode.

Preparation and properties of PEO/LiClO_4/KH560-SiO_2 composite polymer electrolyte by sol-gel composite-in-situ method

Composite polymer electrolytes based on polyethylene oxide(PEO) were prepared by using LiClO4 as doping salt and silane-modified SiO2 as filler. SiO2 was formed in-situ in (PEO)8LiClO4 matrix by the hydrolysis and condensation reaction of Si(OC4H9)4. The crystallinity,morphology and ionic conductivity of composite polymer electrolyte films were examined by differential scanning calorimetry,scanning electron microscopy,atom force microscopy and alternating current impedance spectroscopy,respectively. Compared with the crystallinity of the unmodified SiO2 as inert filler,that of composite polymer electrolytes is decreased. The results show that silane-modified SiO2 particles are uniformly dispersed in (PEO)8LiClO4 composite polymer electrolyte film and the addition of silane-modified SiO2 increases the ionic conductivity of the (PEO)8LiClO4 more noticeably. When the mass fraction of SiO2 is about 10%,the conductivity of (PEO)8LiClO4-modified SiO2 attains a maximum value of 4.8×10-5 S·cm-1.

An analytical model for local-nonequilibrium solute trapping during rapid solidification

Updated version of local non-equilibrium diffusion model （LNDM） for rapid solidification of binary alloys was considered. The LNDM takes into account deviation from local equilibrium of solute concentration and solute flux fields in bulk liquid. The exact solutions for solute concentration and flux in bulk liquid were obtained using hyperbolic diffusion equations. The results show the transition from diffusion-limited to purely thermally controlled solidification with effective diffusion coefficient →0 and complete solute trapping KLNDM（v）→1 at v→vDb for any kind of solid-liquid interface kinetics. Critical parameter for diffusionless solidification and complete solute trapping is the diffusion speed in bulk liquid vDb. Different models for solute trapping at the interface with different interface kinetic approaches were considered.

Preparation and properties of SrBi_(2.2) Ta_2O_9 thin film

SrBi2.2 Ta2O9（SBT） thin film with thickness of 2μm was successfully prepared by sol-gel method, using strontium acetate semihydrate [Sr（CH3COO）2·1/2H2O] and bismth subnitrate [BiO（NO3）], and tantalum ethoxide [Ta（OCH2CH3）5] as source materials, glacial acetic and ethylene glycol as solvents. The X-ray diffraction（XRD） and transmission electron microscope（TEM） results indicate that SBT layer-perovskite phase obtained has to be single phase, SBT thin film is formed after being annealed at 800℃ for 1min. The typical hysteresis loop of SBT thin film on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si is obtained, and the measured polarization value of the SBT thin film is 4.2μC/cm2.

Isolation of Lysozyme from Chicken Egg White Using Polyacrylamide-based Cation-exchange Cryogel

An effective cation-exchange chromatographic method for lysozyme isolation from chicken egg white is presented, using supermacroporous cryogel grafted with sulfo functional groups. The chromatographic processes were carried out by one-step and sequential elution, respectively. Sodium phosphate buffer （pH 7.8） containing different concentrations of NaC1 is used as elution agent. The corresponding breakthrough characteristics and elution behaviors in the cryogel bed were investigated and analyzed. Purity of lysozyme in the elution effluent was assayed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis （SDS-PAGE）. The maximum purity of the obtained lysozyme was about 96%, and the cryogel is demonstrated as a potential separation medium for purification of high-purit lysozyme from chicken egg white.

Structural and Magnetic Properties of Chemically Synthesized Pd-Modified NiFe2O4 Nanoparticles

Magnetic nanoparticles of NiFe2O4-Pd composites have been synthesized using a simple, low cost, sol-gel auto-combustion method. As-prepared samples were sintered at 800℃ for 6 h in order to develop the crystalline phase. X-ray diffraction confirmed the spinel structure of the ferrite samples. Structural morphology and size of the nanoparticles were evaluated using a field emission scanning electron microscope. Magnetic hysteresis loops were obtained at 300 and 100 K using a physical properties measurement system. The value of saturation magnetization was observed to decrease at the temperatures with the increase of Pd contents up to 5% but then a sudden rise in saturation magnetization was observed for the addition of 10% Pd in NiFe2O4.

Synthesis of composite oxides in the series Nd4-xCs2（1＋x）Fe5-xZnxO14＋δ（0≤x≤1.0） （B1-B5： x= 0.0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0） is performed by sol-gel method via nitrate-acetate precursor route. Analysis of the powder x-ray diffraction （XRD） patterns show tetragonal unit cell with lattice parameters a = 8.6545, 8.2520, 7.7645, 9.8952, 8.2863 A; b = 8.9800, 11.5788, 15.6305, 8.4766, 11.6465 A in B1-B5, respectively. The average crystallite sizes in the samples are found to be in the range 69.56-119.48 A. Energy dispersive analysis of x-rays （EDAX） result shows the presence of Fe, Nd, Cs and O, and Fe, Nd, Zn, Cs and O in B 1 （x=0） and B2（x=0.25）-B5（x= 1.0）, respectively. The IR results at 300 K show the presence of octahedral [NdO6/2]^3- （asymmetric stretch： 410-416 cml） and [FeO6/2]^3-（symmetric stretch： 562-572 cm^-1） units in the samples. Observed magnetic moments versus magnetic field plots in the range -10 kG to ＋10 kG exhibit hysteresis loops with average magnetic susceptibility values in the range 3.46 × 10^-5 -7.05 × 10^-5 emu/gG in B1-B5 shows fairly strong ferromagnetic nature of the samples. The observed EPR lineshapes at 300 and 77 K with giso=2.01-2.03 and giso=2.01-2.03, respectively is ascribed to the octahedral [FeO6/2]^3- coordination of Fe^3＋ （3d^5） ion. The optical absorption spectra show the transition of ^4I9/2→^4F7/2→^ 4S3/2 （750 nm） of optically active Nd^3＋ ions in samples.

Towards a universal organogelator:A general mixing approach to fabricate various organic compounds into organogels

Low-molecular-weight organogels(LMOG) have been attracting a surge interest in fabricating soft materials.Although the finding of the gelator molecules has been developed from serendipity to objective design,the achievement of the gelator molecules still needs good design and tedious organic synthesis.In this paper,we proposed a simple and general mixing approach to get the organogel for nearly all the organic compounds and even soluble nanoparticles without any modification.We have designed a universal gelator molecule,which forms organogels with more than 40 kinds of organic solvents from aploar to polar solvents.More interestingly,when other organic compounds or even nanomaterials,which are soluble in certain organic solvents,are mixed with this gelator molecule,they can form organogels no matter whether the individual compounds could form organogel or not.This method is applicable to nearly all kinds of soluble organic compounds and opens an efficient and universal way to fabricate gel materials.

Dendritic growth and solute trapping in rapidly solidified Cu-based alloys

Rapid solidification of binary Cu-22%Sn peritectic alloys and Cu-5%Sn-5%Ni-5%Ag quaternary alloys was accomplished by glass fluxing, drop tube and melt spinning methods. The undercooled, by glass fluxing method, Cu-22%Sn peritectic alloy was composed of a（Cu） and δ（Cu41Snll） phases. If rapidly solidified in a drop tube, the alloy phase constitution changed from α（Cu） and δ（Cu41Sn11） phases into a single supersaturated （Cu） phase with the reducing of droplet diameter, and the maximum solubility of Sn in （Cu） phase extended to 22%. The Cu-5%Sn-5%Ni-5%Ag quaternary alloy was composed of （Cu） and （Ag） phases under the containerless processing condition in a drop tube, and the solute microsegregation of （Cu） phase was obvious. When the Cu-5%Sn-5%Ni-5%Ag quaternary alloy was solidified by melt spinning method, microsegregation was suppressed and solute trapping occurred. The experimental results show that the microstructures of primary （Cu） phase in the two alloys transfer from coarse dendrites into equiaxed grains with the increase of cooling rate and undercooling, which is accompanied by the grain refinement effect.
