T300/KH304, which is recently studied and is a high capability composite material, was used as the raw material. In order to gain the factor β , the fatigue experiments of the laminates with holes in different diameters and the same ratio of width to diameter were conducted. The fatigue analysis and tests of the laminates with a hole 5 mm in diameter are carried out at different stress levels, and the results meet the engineering requirement. The simple, prompt and practical method is provided for the prediction of S-N curve of composite laminate with a circular hole.展开更多

The pore formation mechanism o...The pore constitution and tortuosity factor of porous TiAl intermetallic were studied on the basis of the variation behavior of pore structure parameters and the discrete particle model. The pore formation mechanism of porous TiAl is mainly ascribed to three aspects: the clearance space in green compact, the diffusive pores in the reaction process and the phase transition pores, resulting in the open porosities of 5.6%, 42.9% and 1.3%, respectively. According to the Hagen-Poiseuille equation, the tortuosity factor of porous TiAl is determined in the range of 1.3-2.2. Based on the discrete particle model and the variation rule of the tortuosity factor, the tortuosity factor depends mainly on the parameters of fabrication constant, particle shape factor, clearance distance and powder particle size. The quantitative relationships among them have been established, which can be used as the basis for adjusting the pore structure of porous intermetallics.展开更多

Hot compressive deformation behavior of the composite, in which the TiB whiskers were oriented along the extruded direction, is investigated. The results indicate that the hot compressive resistance of the TiBw/Ti composite is higher than that of the unreinforced Ti, and hot compressive resistance of the composite in the direction parallel to the whisker orientation is higher than that in the direction perpendicular to the whisker orientation. The hot compressive resistance of the composite increases with increasing strain rate and decreasing temperature. With increasing test temperature, the rate of the decrement of the compressive flow stress of the composite is higher than that of the unreinforced Ti. With increasing amount of compressive deformation, more and more TiB whiskers rotate and break during deformation. The rotation of the whiskers is easier at higher temperature, while, at lower temperature it becomes more difficult and whisker breakage becomes much more serious.展开更多

Corresponding formulae in terms of the interfacial factor are derived in detail by incorporating Taylor expansion and Drude model. We take composite as numerical calculation. It is concluded that such absorption is dependent not only on the temperature, but also on the properties of interfacial layers. Many other interesting phenomena are shown.展开更多

The apparent morphology, composition, thermal stability and fluorescent property of the rare earth complex were measured by TEM, Element analysis, IR, TG and Fluorescence spectrometer. The results indicated that this rare earth complex has sphere-like morphology and its diameter was about 100 nm. The complex has good thermal stability due to the strong coordination between the Eu^3+ ions and the ligands. Based on the composition analysis, the complex structure formula was: Eu (HOC6 H4 COI)3 (phen) ·H2O Fluorescence spectra showed that the rare earth complex emission peaks were corresponding to the transition of ^5D0→7FJ(J=0,1,2,4),. and the highest intensity fluorescence peak was at 617 nm. The luminescent fiber was prepared by blending melt-spinning with rare earth complex and polypropylene resin. It also has a good luminescent quality, which the strongest emission peak was at 619 nm.

This subsequent catalytic process is an efficient strategy for the synthesis of silicon-functionalized polyolefins using widely available and inexpensive starting materials.展开更多

The properties of nanomaterials have been found to vary in terms of their shapes, sizes, and number of nanoscale dimensions, which have also further boosted the performance of nanomaterial-based electronic, catalytic, and sustainable energy conversion and storage devices. This reveals the importance and, indeed, the linchpin role of nanomaterial synthesis for current nanotechnology and high-performance functional devices. In this review, we provide an overview of the synthesis strategies for design- ing metal oxide nanomaterials in zero-dimensional (0D), one-dimensional (1D), two-dimensional (2D), and three-di- mensional (3D) forms, particularly of the selected typical metal oxides TiO2, SnO2 and ZnO. The pros and cons of the typical synthetic methods and experimental protocols are reviewed and outlined. This comprehensive review gives a broad overview of the synthetic strategies for designing "property-on-demand" metal oxide nanostructures to fur- ther advance current nanoscience and nanotechnology.展开更多
