Damage characteristics of Cu−Cr−Zr alloy rail of electromagnetic railgun after simulated launch

The damage characteristics of different speed sections of Cu−Cr−Zr alloy rail after simulated launch were studied.The microstructure,morphologies and properties of samples were investigated by using XRD,XPS,EBSD,SEM,hardness test,electrochemical test and DSC techniques.It was found that deposition layers were formed on the surfaces of the simulated launch samples.The thickness and surface roughness of these deposition layers increased with increasing the heat effect,suggesting a launch speed dependent damage degree of the arc ablation.The hardness variation of samples is attributed to the effects of the deposition layer and deformation hardening.The surface deposition layer affects corrosion resistance and crystalline characteristics,leading to changes in subsequent service performances.Additionally,the surface texture and plastic deformation ability of the samples are related to the recrystallization degree and deformation grain amount.

采用旋转喷涂法低温沉积制备NiZn铁氧体薄膜,研究了Zn含量对NiZn铁氧体薄膜相结构、显微形貌和磁性能的影响。结果表明,随Zn含量增加,薄膜平均晶粒尺寸增大,其结晶度和饱和磁化强度M_(s)先增大后减小,矫顽力H_(c)减小至0.57 kA/m,薄膜起始磁导率μ′增大,截止频率f_(r)降低。EDS测试结果可知旋转喷涂法制备NiZn铁氧体薄膜中Zn含量越高时成分中Ni的缺失越严重。当主配方为Ni_(0.09)Zn_(0.68)Fe^(2.23)O_(4)时,频率在100 MHz的起始磁导率μ′可达最大值96。

Effects of Annealing on Atomic Interdiffusion and Microstructures in Fe/Si Systems

Pure metal Fe films with thickness of about 100nm were deposited on Si （100） substrates by DC magnetron sputtering. Annealing was subsequently performed in a vacuum furnace in the temperature range of 600-1000℃ for 2h. The samples were characterized by means of Rutherford backscattering （RBS） with 3MeV carbon ions. The RBS data were fitted with SIMNRA 6.0, and the results show the atomic interdiffusion in Fe/Si systems. The microstructures and crystal structures were characterized by scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffrac- tion. The effects of annealing on atomic interdiffusion, silicide formation, and microstructures in Fe/Si systems were analyzed.

Ferroic domain characterization of Ni_(55)Mn_(20.6)Ga_(24.4) ferromagnetic shape memory alloy

The microstructure and coupling between structural and magnetic domains of ferromagnetic shape memory alloy Ni55Mn20.6Ga24.4 were investigated by scanning electron acoustic microscopy （SEAM）. Stripe ferroelastic domains （martensite variants） exist in every grain, and exhibit the configurations of the typical self-accommodation arrangement. Magnetic domain structure of Ni55Mn20.6Ga24.4 was observed by the Bitter method and magnetic force microscopy （MFM）. Due to the unique subsurface imaging capability of SEAM, combined with the Bitter method, the ferroelastic domain structure can be compared with in situ ferromagnetic domain structure. It is found that the martensitic variant boundaries coincide well with the ferromagnetic domain walls, which is beneficial for the understanding of the correlation between two kinds of ferroic domains.

Experimental research on electromagnetic continuous casting high-speed steel composite roll

A high speed steel composite roll billet was fabricated, which is regular in shape, smooth in surface, slight in trace, compact in internal structure, free of slag inclusion, shrinkage cavity, cracks and other flaws, and good in macro quality of junction surface using a vertical continuous casting machine. The interface zone microstructure of bimetallic in billet of high speed steel composite roll was analyzed by metallurgical microscope(OM), X-ray diffractmeter(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis(EDS). The results indicate that the microstructure of roll billet is composed of chilled solidified layer, dendrite zone, interfacial zone of bimetal and core material zone. The microstructure of outer shell material is composed of martensite + bainite + residual austenite + some small labyrinth-shape, small-short lath-shape, or dollop-shape eutectic carbides. The microstructure of core material is slice-shape pearlite and a little ferrite along boundary of cells. The interface region microstructure of bimetallic composite roll consists of diffusion region, chilled solidified layer and columnar grain region.

Influence of electromagnetic stirring on microstructure of AZ91-0.8%Ce magnesium alloy

Effect of electromagnetic stirring on microstructure of AZ91-0.8%Ce magnesium alloy was investigated. The results show that electromagnetic stirring causes a change of morphology of α-Mg phase from coarse dendrites to fine rosette-like or spherical shape. Grain size is significantly refined within the range of input voltage 75?125 V, moreover, the optimum input voltage corresponded to the minimum value (64 μm) of grain size is 125 V. Compared to the non-stirred condition, the amount of β-Mg17Al12 precipitate under the stirred condition obviously increases. The grain refinement of AZ91-0.8%Ce alloy is mainly attributed to multiplication of existing grains in the melt caused by forced fluid flow under electromagnetic stirring condition. Addition of 0.8% Ce results in the formation of ‘necking’ at secondary dendrite arm roots of α-Mg crystals, and consequently, it is helpful to increase the number of heterogeneous nucleation.

Effects of solidification rate and excessive Fe on phase formation and magnetoclaoric properties of LaFe_(11.6x)Si_(1.4)

The effects of solidification rate and excessive Fe on phase formation and magnetocaloric properties of LaFe11.6xSi1.4(x=1.1,1.2)were investigated by XRD,SEM and VSM measurements.The XRD results show that the amount of LaFeSi phase in the as-cast melt-spun ribbons prepared by a copper wheel at a speed of10m/s is less than that in the as-cast arc melting buttons with the same x values.The annealed melt-spun ribbons contain smaller amount of La(Fe,Si)13(1:13)phase than the corresponding annealed arc melting buttons.Although the melt-spun sample has finer crystalline grains ofα-Fe,as indicated by SEM analysis,its crystalline size has not reached nano-scale.Therefore,the magnetic exchange-coupling between1:13phase andα-Fe phase has not been observed in melt-spun ribbons.Further,the maximum negative magnetic entropy change(?SMax)and relative cooling power(RCP)of annealed melt-spun ribbons under a field change of0?2T are weaker than those of the corresponding annealed arc melting buttons.

Phase, magnetism and thermal conductivity of glass ceramics from iron ore tailings

In order to develop the applications of ore tailings, the glass ceramics were prepared by using a conventional melting-quenching-sintering process. The phase component, microstructures, magnetic properties and thermal conductivities of the prepared glass ceramics were investigated by using X-ray diffractometer, scanning electron microscopy, vibrating sample magnetometer and thermophysical properties tester, respectively. The results show that orthorhombic olivine-type phase and triclinic sunstone-type phase formed when the glass was annealed at 700 oC, the concentration of olivine-type and sunstone-type phases decreased, the spinel-type cubic phase occurred and the amount increased when the annealing temperatures increased. The magnetic properties from the cubic spinel ferrites were detected in the glass ceramics, and the related saturation magnetization increased with the annealing temperature increasing. The porous glass ceramics with magnetic property showed much lower thermal conductivity, compared with the non-magnetic porous glass-ceramic and the dense glass-ceramics.

New method of direct chill casting of Al-6Si-3Cu-Mg semisolid billet by annulus electromagnetic stirring

The electromagnetic direct chill （EMDC） casting process is a welt-established production route for aluminum alloy ingot, however, the skin effect restricts the casting diameter. In order to avoid this problem, annulus electromagnetic direct chill （A-EMDC） casting process has been developed. A three-dimension finite element computational model of A-EMDC casting process was established by using ANSYS Magnetic-Nodal programs and FLOTRAN CFD programs. Microstruetures of A-EMDC casting semi-solid Al-6Si-3Cu-Mg alloy billets were investigated. Two pairs of vortexes occur within the crystallizer with opposite direction in A-EMDC. The annulus gap is advantageous to increasing circulate flow, reducing the temperature gradient as well as shallowing liquid sump depth. The microstructure obtained by A-EMDC is globular or rosette-like, and the microstructure is homogeneous in the billet.

Healing of Stoma After Magnetic Biliary-Enteric Anastomosis in Canine Peritonitis Models

Objective To assese the healing of stoma after magnetic anastomosis for the reconstruction of biliary-enteric continuity under severe inflammation. Methods Acute bile duct injury was constructed as a bile peritonitis model in mongrel dogs(n=32). Magnetic anastomosis(group A, n=16) and traditional suture anastomosis(group B, n=16) were performed to reconstruct the biliary-enteric continuity in one stage. Half of the dogs in each group were euthanized on the 30 th postoperative day, and the other half on the 90 th postoperative day to harvest the stoma region. The healing conditions of the stoma after the 2 anastomotic approaches were observed with naked eyes, under light microscope and scanning electron microscope. Results The stoma leakage rate(50% versus 0% on the 30 th postoperative day, 37.5% versus 12.5% on the 90 th postoperative day, both P<0.05) and stenosis degree(13.9%±0.3% versus 7.1%±0.3% on the 30 th postoperative day, 17.2%±0.4% versus 9.4%±0.4% on the 90 th postoperative day, both P<0.01) were significantly higher in group B than in group A. Compared with traditional manual anastomoses, the histological analysis under light and electron microscope showed a more continuous stoma with more regular epithelium proliferation and collagen arrangement, less inflammation in group A. Conclusions Magnetic anastomosis stent ensures better healing of the stoma even under the circumstance of severe inflammation.

Effect of external forces on microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of high pressure die cast AA5754 alloy

The effects of ultrasonic treatment （UT） and electromagnetic stirring （EMS） forces, individually and in combination, prior to high pressure die-casting of AA5754 alloy were assessed. The liquid of alloy was subjected to UT, EMS and the combined style and then transferred to the shot chamber. The grain size, mechanical properties, gas content and hot tearing susceptibility were analyzed. The results suggest that the application of each process enhances grain refinement and decreases the porosity of the specimens. UT reduces the grain size from 140 to 82 μm and decreases the porosity from 5.5% to 1.4%. EMS reduces the grain size to 107 μm and the porosity to 3.3%. The combination of UT and EMS decreases the grain size and the porosity to 65 μm and 1.1%, respectively, which are the lowest grain size and porosity ever reported for this alloy achieved via physical processing. Intensive cavitation and stirring not only resulted in a refined microstructure but also significantly decreased the hot tearing susceptibility and improved the mechanical properties. All of the aforementioned characteristics are due to cavity formation, during each process. By combination of techniques, EMS could promote the nucleation process by providing more exogenous particles in the strong cavitation field of UT. Ultrasonic plays a major role in grain refining, decreasing the hot tearing susceptibility and the gas content by introducing a strong cavitation field.

Mn-doped ZnO diluted magnetic semiconductor nanoparticles are prepared by an ultrasonic assisted sol-gel process.Transmission electron microscopy shows pseudo-hexagonal nanoparticles with an average size of about 24 nm.From the analysis of X-ray diffraction,the Mn-doped ZnO nanoparticles are identified to be a wurtzite structure without any impurity phases.The magnetic properties are measured by using superconducting quantum interference device.For the ZnO with 2% Mn doping concentration,a good hysteresis loop indicates fine ferromagnetism with a Curie temperature higher than 350 K.

Microstructure and magnetic properties of granularFePt/(FePt)_(27)Ti_(73) films for ultrahigh-density recording media

FePt granular films were prepared by direct current facing-target magnetron sputtering system onto glass substrates and subsequently in-situ annealed in vacuum. Vibrating sample magnetometer, X-ray diffraction and scanning probe microscope were applied to study the magnetic properties, microstructures, morphologies and domain structures of the samples. （FePt）27Ti73 bilayer films were fabricated at various conditions to investigate the effect of Ti on FePt grains. The results show that without Ti matrix layer, FePt films deposited onto the glass substrates are fcc disordered; with addition of Ti matrix layer, FePt/Ti films form a ternary （FePt）27Ti73 alloy possessing fcc and L10 （111） mixed texture. FePt/（FePt）27Ti73 films with perfectly ordered L10（111） structure and unique magnetic properties can be obtained at Ti thickness of 35nm and substrate temperature of 250℃. The maximum coercivity is more than 240kA/m and the squareness ratio is more than 0.9. The obtained results suggest that the granular FePt/（FePt）27Ti73 films can be applicable to ultrahigh-density magnetic recording media.

Bioleaching of complex polymetallic sulfide ores by mixed culture

Bacterial leaching of single sulfide minerals and polymetallic sulfide ores was operated in shake flasks and small-scaled columns.The results show that bioleaching of jamesonite is not accessible,the iron extraction rate of pyrrhotite bioleaching reaches 98.2% after 26 d,and the zinc extraction rate of marmatite bioleaching reaches 92.3%,while the corresponding iron extraction reaches only 13.6% after 29 d.Pulp density has a significant effect on metal extraction of pyrrhotite and marmatite bioleaching.The corresponding metal extraction rate decreases with the increase of pulp density.For the polymetallic sulfide ores,zinc extraction of 97.1% is achieved after bioleaching in shake flasks for 10 d,while only 7.8% is obtained after bioleaching in small-scaled column.Analytical results of scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray analysis(EDX) reveal that large amount of calcium sulfate is formed on the mineral surface.

Effect of substrate rotation speed on structure and properties of Al-doped ZnO thin films prepared by rf-sputtering

Al-doped ZnO(AZO)thin films were deposited on glass substrates by rf-sputtering at room temperature.The effects of substrate rotation speed(ωS)on the morphological,structural,optical and electrical properties were investigated.SEM transversal images show that the substrate rotation produces dense columnar structures which were found to be better defined under substrate rotation.AFM images show that the surface particles of the samples formed under substrate rotation are smaller and denser than those of a stationary one,leading to smaller grain sizes.XRD results show that all films have hexagonal wurtzite structure and preferred c-axis orientation with a tensile stress along the c-axis.The average optical transmittance was above90%in UV-Vis region.The lowest resistivity value(8.5×10?3Ω·cm)was achieved atωS=0r/min,with a carrier concentration of1.8×1020cm?3,and a Hall mobility of4.19cm2/(V·s).For all other samples,the substrate rotation induced changes in the carrier concentration and Hall mobility which resulted in the increasing of electrical resistivity.These results indicate that the morphology,structure,optical and electrical properties of the AZO thin films are strongly affected by the substrate rotation speed.

DC casting of light alloys under magnetic fields

The working principle of LFEC（Low frequency electromagnetic casting） process developed in Northeastern University, China was introduced and the metallurgical results of LFEC were discussed according to the casting practices. The low frequency field around the mold produces Lorenz force, which can be divided into two parts： one is the potential force which will be balanced by a pressure gradient of the liquid and results in the formation of a convex surface meniscus and improves the surface quality; the other is the rotary force which stirs the liquid in the mold to refine the microstructures and homogenize the distribution of alloying elements. LFEC can refine microstructures remarkably, improve surface quality of the ingots, depress macrosegregation and eliminate cracks. Some new technologies, such as horizontal direct chill casting under low-frequency electromagnetic field （HLEC）, DC casting of hollow billets under electromagnetic fields （HBEC）, electromagnetic modifying of hypereutectic A1-Si alloys（EMM）, air film casting under static magnetic field （AFCM）, and multi-ingots casting under low-frequency magnetic field （MLFEC） were developed based on LFEC.

Synthesis of Ni-Zn ferrite and its microstructure and magnetic properties

Nanometer Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 powders with spinel phase were prepared by the hydrothermal method using purified FeSO4 solution from sodium jarosite＇s slag as materials. The results show that the spinel phase of Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 powders begins to form at a relatively low temperature （130 ℃） and a shorter holding time （1 h） when pH=8. The crystallization kinetics equation at 200℃ is ln[-ln（1-x）] =-0.78＋0.951n t. The growth activation energy of Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 grains is 41.6 kJ/moL in hydrothermal synthesis process. With the increase of sintering temperature, the density and diameter shrinkage of ferrite circulus increase, whereas its pores decrease. The results of magnetic measurements show that saturation magnetic flux density Bs increases and the coercivity Hc decreases with the increase of their sintering temperature. Magnetic parameters of all the investigated samples satisfy the character demand of high Bs, low Br and low Hc of soft magnetic ferrite materials.
