Microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti-45Al-5.5(Cr,Nb,B,Ta) alloy sintered at different SPS temperatures

TiAl alloy bulk samples with the composition of Ti-45Al-5.5(Cr,Nb,B,Ta) (mole fraction, %) were prepared by high energy mechanical milling and spark plasma sintering (SPS) and then heat treatment. The microstructure and mechanical properties after heat treatment of TiAl alloy prepared by SPS at different temperatures were studied. The results showed that the morphology of high energy mechanically milled powder was irregular and the average grain size was about decades micrometers. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the mechanically milled powder was composed of two phases of TiAl and Ti3Al. The main phase of TiAl and few phases of Ti3Al and TiB2 were observed in the SPS bulk samples of Ti-45Al-5.5(Cr,Nb,B,Ta) alloy. For samples sintered at 900 °C and 1000 °C, the microstructure was duplex structure with some fine equiaxed gamma grains and thin needly TiB2 phases. With the SPS temperature increasing from 900 °C to 1000 °C, the micro-hardness was changed little, the compression strength increased from 1812 MPa to 2275 MPa and the compression ratio increased from 22.66% to 25.59%. The fractography results showed that the compression fracture transform of the SPS Ti-45Al-5.5(Cr,Nb,B,Ta) alloy was rgranular rupture.

用ETV-ICP-MS研究Cr、Ni、Zr、Nb、Yb在石墨炉中的蒸发/原子化机理

本文以电热蒸发电感耦合等离子体质谱(ETV-ICP-MS)为手段,探讨了Cr、Ni、Zr、Nb和Yb在石墨炉中的蒸发/原子化机理;比较了不同化学改进剂存在条件下,Cr、Ni、Zr、Nb和Yb的蒸发行为和在石墨炉原子吸收(GFAAS)中的原子化行为;考察了石墨炉温度和ICP功率等实验参数对上述元素发射强度及轮廓的影响。结果表明,Pd和Mg化合物的存在对Cr、Ni、Zr、Nb和Yb的蒸发/原子化行为没有明显的化学改进作用;然而,以聚四氟乙烯(PTFE)为化学改进剂时,可显著改善Cr、Ni、Zr、Nb和Yb的蒸发行为,避免难熔碳化物的形成,降低待测物的蒸发温度;对Cr和Ni的GFAAS信号强度略有增强;但是,由于Yb、Nb和Zr氟化物的离解键能很高,难以离解/原子化,PTFE的存在反而降低了Yb、Nb和Zr在GFAAS中的信号强度。

Microstructure and magnetic properties of anisotropic Nd-Fe-B magnets prepared by spark plasma sintering and hot deformation

Bulk anisotropic Nd-Fe-B magnets were prepared from hydrogen-disproportionation-desorption-recombination（HDDR） powders via spark plasma sintering（SPS） and subsequent hot deformation. The influence of sintering temperature on the structure and magnetic properties of the spark plasma sintered Nd-Fe-B magnets were studied. The remanence Br, intrinsic coercivity Hcj, and the maximum energy product（BH）max, of sintered Nd-Fe-B magnets first increase and then decrease with the increase of sintering temperature, TSPS, from 650 °C to 900 °C. The optimal magnetic properties can be obtained when TSPS is 800 °C. The Nd-Fe-B magnet sinter treated at 800 °C was subjected to further hot deformation. Compared with the starting HDDR powders or the SPS treated magnets, the hot-deformed magnets present more obvious anisotropy and possess much better magnetic properties due to the good c-axis texture formed in the deformation process. The anisotropic magnet deformed at 800 °C with 50% compression ratio has a microstructure consisting of well aligned and platelet-shaped Nd2Fe14 B grains without abnormal grain growth and exhibits excellent magnetic properties parallel to the pressing axis.

Properties and microstructure of Cu/diamond composites prepared by spark plasma sintering method

Cu/diamond composites have been considered as the next generation of thermal management material for electronic packages and heat sinks applications. Cu/diamond composites with different volume fractions of diamond were successfully prepared by spark plasma sintering（SPS） method. The sintering temperatures and volume fractions（50%, 60% and 70%） of diamond were changed to investigate their effects on the relative density, homogeneity of the microstructure and thermal conductivity of the composites. The results show that the relative density, homogeneity of the microstructure and thermal conductivity of the composites increase with decreasing the diamond volume fraction; the relative density and thermal conductivity of the composites increase with increasing the sintering temperature. The thermal conductivity of the composites is a result of the combined effect of the volume fraction of diamond, the homogeneity and relative density of the composites.

Effect of mechanical alloying and sintering process on microstructure and mechanical properties of Al-Ni-Y-Co-La alloy

Al86Ni7Y4.5Co1La1.5 （mole fraction, %） alloy powder was produced by argon gas atomization process. After high-energy ball milling, the powder was consolidated by vacuum hot press sintering and spark plasma sintering （SPS） under different process conditions. The microstructure and morphology of the powder and consolidated bulk sample were examined by X-ray diffraction （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and transmission electron microscopy （TEM）. It is shown that amorphous phase appears when ball milling time is more than 100 h, and the bulk sample consolidated by SPS can maintain amorphous/ nanocrystalline microstructure but has lower relative density. A compressive strength of 650 MPa of Al86Ni7Y4.5Co1La1.5 nanostructured samples is achieved by vacuum hot extrusion （VHE）.

Improving tribological and thermal properties of Al alloy using CNTs and Nb nanopowder via SPS for power transmission conductor

This study aimed at improving the tribological and thermal properties of Al alloy using CNTs and Nb nanopowder as reinforcements and spark plasma sintering(SPS)as the fabrication method.The SPS was conducted at 630℃,30 MPa,10 min,and 200℃/min.The tribology test was run with ball-on-disc tribometer using steel ball as the counter body.And the thermal test was processed with thermogravimetric analyzer(TGA)and laser flash apparatus(LFA).Results showed that the addition of 8 wt.%CNTs and 8 wt.%Nb reinforcements respectively decreased the coefficient of friction(COF)of the composite by 79%.The wear volume of the composite was decreased by 23%,and so was the wear rate.However,the thermal conductivity of the composite was equally improved by 44%.The tribology improvement was stimulated by a C film generated by CNTs and a protective Nb2O5 formed by Nb nanopowder.The thermal conductivity was improved by the grain refining property of Nb and the high thermal conductivity of CNTs.Therefore,these results indicated that Al-CNTs-Nb composite is a robust material for high transmission conductor capable of reducing sag and ensuring the durability of the composite.

ICRF Heated Long-Pulse Plasma Discharges in LHD

A long-pulse plasma discharge for more than 30 min. was achieved on the Large Helical Device （LHD）. A plasma of ne = 0.8 × 10^19 m^-3 and T10 = 2.0 keV was sustained with PICH = 0.52 MW, PECH = 0.1 MW and averaged PNBI = 0.067 MW. Total injected heating energy was 1.3 G J, which was a quarter of the prepared RF heating energy. One of the keys to the success of the experiment was a dispersion of the local plasma heat load to divertors, accomplished by shifting the magnetic axis inward and outward.

（2＋1）-Dimensional Electron Acoustic Solitary Waves in an Unmagnetized Collisionless Plasma with Vortex-Like Hot Electrons

In this paper, （2＋1）-dimensional electron acoustic waves （EAW） in an unmagnetized collisionless plasma have been studied by the linearized method and the reductive perturbation technique, respectively. The dispersion relation and a modified Kadomtsev-Petviashvili （KP） equation have been obtained for the EAW in the plasma considering a cold electron fluid and a vortex-like hot electrons. It is found from some numerical results that the parameter β（the ratio of the free hot electron temperature to the hot trapped electron temperature） effects on the amplitude and the Width of the electron acoustic solitary waves （EASW）. It can be indicated that the free hot electron temperature and the hot trapped electron temperature have very important effect on the characters of the propagation for the EASW.

Effects of various sintering methods on microstructure and mechanical properties of CP-Ti powder consolidations

Effects of various sintering methods such as spark plasma sintering(SPS), hot pressing(HP) and electric resistance sintering(ERS) on the microstructure and mechanical properties of commercial pure titanium(CP-Ti) powder consolidations with particle size of <147 μm, <74 μm and <43 μm were studied. The smaller particle powders are densified to proceed at a higher rate. Dense titanium with relative density up to 99% is found to take place at 850 °C under 30 MPa of SPS and HP condition. However, in case of ERS, CP-Ti powders were densified almost at 950 °C under 30 MPa. The microstructure of sintered titanium is composed of equiaxed grains at 850-950 °C. The yield strength of sintered body composed of <43 μm powder is 858 MPa by using SPS at 850 °C under 30 MPa. When there is a higher content of small particle, the higher yield strength value is obtained both by using SPS and HP. However, when ERS is introduced, the highest yield strength is 441 MPa at 950 °C under 30 MPa, which shows much lower values than those by SPS and HP methods. ERS method takes much less sintering time compared with SPS and HP. Nevertheless, higher sintering temperature results in lower strength and elongation because of brittle fracture.

Organotemplate-free Hydrothermal Synthesis of SUZ-4 Zeolite: Influence of Synthesis Conditions

Various conditions were investigated in detail for the novel organic template-free static hydrothermal synthesis of SUZ-4 zeolite in the presence of seeds. The obtained samples were characterized by XRD （X-ray diffraction）, SEM （scanning electron microscope）, TG （thermal gravimetric analysis）, ICP （inductively coupling plasma） elemental analysis, nitrogen sorption isotherm and surface area. The results show that pure SUZ-4 zeolites with high crystallinity are obtained in a broad window of synthesis conditions： seed mass concentration 0.2%-2%, SIO2/A1203 molar ratio 21 25, KOH/SiO2 molar ratio 0.33 0.43, H20/SiO2 molar ratio 7.14-38.1, aging time 24 h, crystallization temperature 160℃, and crystallization time 6-10 d. Also, crystallinity and size of the rod-like SUZ-4 zeolite crystals are found to alter with the conditions.

Calculation of Dielectric Function of a Quark-Gluon Plasma

With the hard thermal loop （HTL） resummation technique, we calculate the dielectric function excited by hard gluon in quark-gluon plasma （QCP）. We find that in a section of the space-like region po/p ∈ [0.78, 0.95], there are two extremum structures on the dielectric function curve, while the dielectric function in the HTL approximation decreases monotonously without these properties. Through the analyses of the imaginary part of the dielectric function, we conclude that the character of the dielectric function in this region reflects effects of the Landau damping.

Enhanced thermoelectric performance of Cu_(12)Sb_4S_(13-δ) tetrahedrite via nickel doping

Cu12Sb4S13 tetrahedrite has received great attention as an earth-abundant and environmental-friendly thermoelectric material. This work aims to uncover the thermoelectric performance-enhancing effect and the mechanism of nickel doping on tetrahedrite. A series of Cu12-xNixSb4S13-δ（x = 0.5, 0.7, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0） compounds were synthesized by mechanical alloying combined with spark plasma sintering. It is found that the thermal conductivity sharply reduces with increasing Ni content over the entire temperature range,0.9 W m^-1K^-1, accompanied with an enhanced thermoelectric power factor. The model predicted that the reduced lattice thermal conductivity is attributed to mid-frequency phonon scattering, caused by precipitates and dislocations resulting from Ni doping. Consequently, a high ZT value up to 0.95 at 723 K was achieved for Cu11NiSb4S13-δ, corresponding to a ~46% increase over non-doped Cu12Sb4S13-δ. Furthermore,the cyclic measurement showed that the Ni-doped tetrahedrites displayed high chemical stability.

Hot deformation behaviour and processing maps of AA6061-10 vol. % SiC composite prepared by spark plasma sintering

AA6061-10 vol.% SiC composite was successfully prepared by spark plasma sintering. The deformation behaviour of this composite was studied using the uniaxial compression test, which was conducted at temperatures between 300 and 500℃ and strain rates between 0.001 and 1 s^-1. Results indicate that the stress-strain curves of the AA6061-10 vol.% SiC composite typically feature dynamic recrystallization. The steady stress can be described by a hyperbolic sine constitutive equation, and the activation energy of the composite is 230.88 kJ/mol. The processing map was established according to the dynamic materials model. The optimum hot deformation temperature is 450-500℃ and the strain rate is 1-0.1 s^-1. The instability zones of flow behaviour can also be identified using the processing map.
