Structural,mechanical and electronic properties of precipitates in Mg−Zn alloys

To accelerate the development and design of magnesium(Mg)alloys,the structural and mechanical properties of important precipitates in Mg−Zn alloys were studied by experiments and density functional theory.The nano-indentation tests revealed that the hardness of the precipitates initially increased and then decreased with increasing Zn content,and was significantly higher than that of pure Mg and Zn.The calculation results revealed that the precipitates stability initially increased and then decreased with increasing Zn concentration.The bulk moduli of the precipitates increased,whereas their shear and Young’s moduli initially increased and then decreased with increasing Zn content.The decreasing order of ductility for these compounds is MgZn_(2)>Mg_(21)Zn_(25)>Mg_(2)Zn_(11)>Mg_(4)Zn_(7).The surface profiles of the compounds revealed that they are obvious anisotropy.Both the degree of covalency and bond length of covalent bonds initially increased and then decreased with increasing Zn content.

Influence of pile-up on nanoindentation measurements in Cu-2wt.%Be samples with precipitates

The influence of pile-up on the nanoindentation measurements in Cu 2wt.%Be samples with precipitates was carefully studied.The precipitates were formed by aging treatments for 1 h at different temperatures between 540 and 680 K.The load depth curves were analyzed using the classical Oliver and Pharr method,and the obtained elastic modulus and hardness were compared with values estimated by other techniques.An important level of pile-up was found in samples with precipitates and differences in the load depth curves were observed between the unaged and aged samples.A correction of the contact depth considering the pile-up proposed by Loubet was used for hardness estimation.For the determination of the elastic modulus,an approach based on the relation between the ratio of unloading work to indentation total work,with the ratio H/Er(H is the hardness;Er is the reduced modulus),was employed.A specific relation between both parameters was developed.

The Use of Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes Mini Column for Preconcentration of Trace Metal Ions in Tap Water of Khartoum City and Their Determination by Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry （FAAS）

The adsorption behavior of multiwalled carbon nanotubes （MWNTs） toward heavy elements has been investigated systemically, and a new method has been developed for the determination of trace elements in water samples based on preconcentration with mini-column packed with MWNTs prior to its determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry （FAAS） The recommended parameters of proposed method influencing the preconcentration of the analytes, such as pH of the sample, sample flow rate and volume, elute solution and interfering ions, have been used. Under the optimized conditions, the calibration graphs were linear with the correlation coefficient range 0.9981-0.9995. According to the results, the metals were found 0.019-0.051, 0.011-0.031, 0.00-0.081, 0.00-0.0002, 0.007-0.0925, 0.00-0.0104 μg/L in water samples for Pb, Mn, Zn, Cd, Fe, Cu respectively. The percentage relative standard deviation （%RSD） for five replicate samples were 〈 5% in all cases. The method has been successfully applied to the determination of trace elements in some environmental samples with satisfactory results.

Species Transformation of Trace Elements and Their Distribution Prediction in Dyestuff Residue Incineration

The release of heavy metals from the combustion of hazardous wastes is an environmental issue of in-creasing concern.The species transformation characteristics of toxic heavy metals and their distribution are consid-ered to be a complex problem of mechanism.The behavior of hazardous dyestuff residue is investigated in a tubular furnace under the general condition of hazardous waste pyrolysis and gasfication.Data interpretation has been aided by parallel theoretical study based on a thermodynamic equilibrium model based on the principle of Gibbs free en-ergy minimization.The results show that Ni,Zn,Mn,and Cr are more enriched in dyestuff residue incineration than other heavy metals(Hg,As,and Se)subjected to volatilization.The thermodynamic model calculation is used for explaining the experiment data at 800℃ and analyzing species transformation of heavy metals.These results of species transformation are used to predict the distribution and emission characteristics of trace elements.Although most trace element predictions are validated by the measurements,cautions are in order due to the complexity of incineration systems.

Trace Metals in Water Samples Taken from Azerbaijan Sector of Caspian Sea

The present study was conducted to investigate the heavy metal contents （As, Ba, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Ga, Mo, Mn, Rb, Pb, Cu, Ni, V, U and Zn） in seawater samples, which were collected at two c （5 and 100 m）, from 9 different sites of Azerbaijan sector of the Caspian Sea. The Agitent 7700x Series ICP-MS （inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry） with HMI （high matrix introduction） system applied to analysis seawater. It was shown, the average concentrations of elements as Cr, Co, Cu, Mn, Pb and Zn in surface water slightly higher than their concentrations in depth water at 100 m. Practically it is not deference of the Mo, Rb and U average concentrations in surface and 100 m depth column water. There was little variation observed for nickel and vanadium. In contrast the concentrations of As, Ga and Ba in samples taken from 100 m, were significantly higher than the concentration in surface samples. Dependence concentration of elements from water columns depth can be explained in accordance with the geochemical system of classification of dissolved forms of elements in the sea water.

Monitoring Trace Metals in Some Cultured Freshwater Fish Species in Saudi Arabia

Three species of freshwater fishes, Oreochromis niloticus, Clarias lazera and Cyprinus carpio, were collected in marketing size from some fish farms in Al-Kharj region, Riyadh area, Saudi Arabia and examined throughout the year 2012 for the following trace metals contents： chromium （Cr）, lead （Pb）, cobalt （Co）, nickel （Ni）, copper （Cu）, zinc （Zn）, iron （Fe） and cadmium （Cd）. The results showed no detection of Cd in all examined species, however, the mean values of other tested metals were within the standard permissible levels except for Pb which showed higher mean levels ranged from 2.05 ± 0.65 mg/kg to 5.30 ± 0.60 mg/kg in O. niloticus, 0.15 ± 0.13 mg/kg to 6.40 ± 0.10 mg/kg in C. lazera and 1.7 ± 0.20 mg/kg in C. carpio compared to the maximum permissible limits recorded by Saudi Arabia Standards Organization （SASO） for fish and shellfish. Consequently, from the public health point of view, efficient routine examination of cultured fishes to control trace metals during culture processes and before marketing is recommended.

Elastic modulus of nanocrystalline cemented carbide

The purposes of this work were to obtain the accurate elastic modulus of the nanocrystalline WC-Co cemented carbides, and to propose the mechanism for the difference of elastic modulus between the nanocrystalline and conventional polycrystalline cemented carbides. The nanocrystalline cemented carbide was prepared by spark plasma sintering（SPS） technique. The conventional polycrystalline cemented carbides were prepared by SPS and sinter-HIP techniques as references, respectively. The sintered cemented carbides were characterized by X-ray diffractometry, scanning electron microscopy and the transmission electron microscopy with precession electron diffraction technology. The elastic modulus was obtained by averaging the values measured with the continuous stiffness measurement method of the nanoindentation technology. The results show that the nanocrystalline cemented carbide has a relatively low modulus, which could be attributed to the more interface area and higher fraction ratio of the hcp cobalt phase caused by the rapid heating and cooling process during SPS.
