Effects of NaOH content in the composite electrolyte on the microstructure and properties of the MAO ceramic coatings on magnesium alloy wires were studied. It is found that the arc voltage of magnesium alloy wires in the micro-arc oxidation process is significantly reduced while the oxidation rate is accelerated. Addition of 2 g/L NaOH in the composite electrolyte is a better choice for improving corrosion resistance of magnesium alloy wires. During early simulated body fluids （SBF） immersion, the micro-arc oxidized magnesium alloy wires undergo a slow and stable degradation. After soaking for 28 d, the protective ceramic coating still shows no damage but significant degradation is observed for magnesium alloy wires after immersion for more than 60 d.展开更多

For the PEO in S1 electrolyte, a mixed layer of AlPO4and Al2O3is formed at the initial stage, which leads to fast plasma discharges and formation of black coatings with the compositions of Al2O3,CuO, Cu2O and ZnO. However, in S2 electrolyte, plasma discharges are delayed and the coatings show a reddish color due to more Cu2O. Mott-Schottky tests show that the S1 coatings are p-type semiconductors;while the S2 coatings can be adjusted between n-type and p-type. Potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS) tests show that the PEO treatment can significantly improve the corrosion resistance of brass, with protection efficiency up to 91.50% and the largest charge transfer resistance of 59.95 kΩ·cm^(2) for the S1 coating.展开更多

With oxidation weight gain method, the oxidation resistance of test alloys was examined at 1 200 ℃ for 500 h. The effects of Al and Si on oxidation resistance were studied through analyses of X-ray diffraction （XRD） and scanning electron microscope （SEM）. It is shown that the composition of oxide scales is a decisive factor for the oxidation resistance of heat resistant steels. The compounded scale composed of Cr203, α-Al2O3, SiO2 and Fe （Ni）Cr2O4, with flat and compact structure, fine and even grains, exhibits complete oxidation resistance at 1 200 ℃. Its oxidation weight gain rate is only 0.081 g/（m^2.h）. By the criterion of standard Gibbs formation free energy, a model of nucleation and growth of the compounded scale was established. The formation of the compounded scale was the result of the competition of being oxidated and reduction among Al, Si, and the matrix metal elements of Fe, Cr and Ni. The protection of the compounded scale was analyzed from the perspectives of electrical conductivity and strength properties.展开更多

The mineral composition, hydration products and hydration heat release were analyzed by XRD, FT-IR, SEM and TAM air isothermal calorimeter, etc. After being modified by H3PO4 and Ca（HzPO4）2, the properties of the TDMOC are improved obviously. The compressive strength increases from 14.8 MPa to 48.1 MPa and 37.1 MPa, respectively. The strength retention coefficient （Kn） increases from 0.38 to 0.99 and 0.94, respectively. The 24 h hydration heat release decreases by 10% and 4% and the time of hydration peak appearing is delayed from 1 h to about 10 h. The XRD, FT-IR and SEM results show that the main composition is 5Mg（OH）z＇MgCIz＇8H20 in the modified TDMOC pastes. The possible mechanism for the strength enhancement was discussed. The purposes are to extend the potential applications of the salt lake magnesium resources and to improve the mechanical properties of TDMOC.展开更多

The anodic films were characterized by means of the scanning electron microscope （SEM） and energy dispersive spectrometer （EDS）. Results revealed that the addition of sodium hypochlorite leads to the ultrafast growth of oxide films, and results in the significant changes of morphology and thickness. The influence of sodium hypochlorite on formation and crystallization of oxide films as a function of anodizing time was discussed. Meanwhile, potentiodynamic electrochemical tests and dry sliding wear tests were performed to evaluate the corrosion resistance and tribological properties of oxide films. It was found that the oxide film fabricated with the existence of sodium hypochlorite had improved corrosion resistance and tribological properties than the one formed without sodium hypochlorite. Moreover, the effect mechanism of sodium hypochlorite on the growth rate and surface morphologies of oxide films during the anodizing process was discussed. It was found that hypochlorite ions participated in the reaction on anode which causes the rapid growth of oxide films and then affect the whole anodizing process.展开更多

It was discovered that pressure was the most significantly and negatively effect on the product properties. Enhancing in the mechanical properties was related to decrease the processing pressure. Beside, press time was also significantly and positively effect. Although time was not clearly reflect from the mechanical results, but it was detected from the ANOVA （analysis of variance）results. The mechanical properties were increased with increasing compression time. From the results, the optimal condition to maximize mechanical properties was assumed at low pressure, 15 bars, low temperature, 70℃, and long time, 60 mins. The durability testing including screw nail withdrawal strength, water absorption, and termite resistance of LVL reinforced composite were also studied. The results are shown that the LVL wood has superior properties when compare with solid woods. It was found the withdrawal strength of LVL reinforce composite was higher than the solid woods. As expected that solid woods, except eucalyptus, had low water absorption resistance as it more hygroscopic corresponded to LVL reinforced wood. Also solid woods, except teal（, had low resistance to termite attack. Therefore, LVL reinforced was the best candidate by mean of durability properties compared to solid wood.展开更多
