MICROSTRUCTURE AND PROPERTY OF Al/TiC COMPOSITES PREPARED BY REACTION SYNTHESIS

A novel in-situ process-Reaction Synthesis has been used to fabricate Al/TiC compos-ites,the phase constitute,microstructure and mechanical property of the Al/TiC composite have been investigated by the use of XRD and SEM.It has been shown that the reaction synthesized TiC particu-late is submicron in size(about 0.1~0.8μpm),spherical in shape and smooth in surface.In macrostruc-ture the distribution of the TiC particulate in matrix is homogeneous,but in micostructure there is micro-segregation of the TiC particulate at the intergrannular.The cast structure become fine because of the existence of the TiC particulate.In addition«with the increasing of weight percentage of TiC partic-ulate in alloy,the yield strength and ultimate tensile strength of the composite increase significantly«e.g.at 15%TiC,117% and 103% increase respectively,in the same time the elongation of the composite is still more than 4.5%.In the end,the analysis has been done by SEM on the fracture morphology of the composite.The results show that the fracture is ductility,and mainly because of the cluster of TiC particulate to intergrannular and the synthesis of bar morphology Al_(3)Ti.

Effect of Pressure and Temperature on Phase Transformation and Properties of Titanium Aluminide Obtained through Reaction Synthesis

Reaction synthesis process has been used to develop γ titanium aluminide using elemental powders. Powder mixture of Ti-48 at. pct AI was prepared in ball mill and reaction synthesis was carried out in hot press with varying temperature and pressure. Titanium aluminide synthesized under high pressure and temperature resulted in better properties with respect to densification, homogenization response, mechanical properties and oxidation resistance as compared to that synthesized under low pressure and temperature. AI rich phases were observed in as-synthesized condition in all the experiments. However, some Ti rich phases were also found in high pressure-temperature synthesized samples. Density, hardness and tensile strength have been correlated with applied pressure through empirical relations. Variation in density with pressure is found to be logarithmic whereas hardness and tensile strength variation with pressure is polynomial.

PHASES AND STRUCTURE OF PREFORM DURING PREPARING PROCESS OF Al／TiCp COMPOSITES BY DIRECT REACTION SYNTHESIS

Direct reaction synthesis(DRS), based on the principle of self-propagating hightemperature synthesis (SHS), is a new method for preparing particulate metal matrix composites (PMMCs). The effects of the temperature of the aluminum melt and the aluminum content in the preform on the phases and structure of the reacted preform have been investigated by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy.It has been shown that TiC phase is prone to be synthesized with the increasing of the temperature of the aluminum melt and the decreasing of the aluminum powder content in the preform, and that the size of TiC particle becomes fine with the increasing of the temperature and the decreasing of the aluminum powder content.

Precisely Controlled Synthesis of Pt-Pd Octahedral Nanoframes as a Superior Catalyst towards Oxygen Reduction Reaction

Pt-based nanoframes represent a class of promising catalysts towards oxygen reduction reaction. Herein, we, for the first time, successfully prepared Pt-Pd octahedral nanoframes with ultrathin ridges less than 2 nm in thickness. The Pt-Pd octahedral nanoframes were obtained through site-selected deposition of Pt atoms onto the edge sites of Pd octahedral seeds, followed by selective removal of the Pd octahedral cores via chemical etching. Due to that a combination of three-dimensional opens geometrical structure and Pt-skin surface compositional structure, the Pt-Pd octahedral nanoframes/C catalyst shows a mass activity of 1.15 A/mgPt towards oxygen reduction reaction, 5.8 times enhancement in mass activity relative to commercial Pt/C catalyst （0.20 A/mgPt）. Moreover, even after 8000 cycles of accelerated durability test, the Pt-Pd octahedral nanoframes/C catalyst still exhibits a mass activity which is more than three times higher than that of pristine Pt/C catalyst.

Reaction Mechanism,Synthesis and Characterization of Urea-glyoxal(UG) Resin

The reaction mechanism of glyoxal （G） with urea （U） under weak acid condition was theoretically investigated at PW91/DNP/COSMO of quantum chemistry using density functional theory （DFT） method. The results show that the addition reaction of G with U under the conditions mainly involves the reactions of U with protonated glyoxal （p-G）, protonated 2,2-dihy- droxyacetaldehyde （p-G 1） and protonated bis-hemdiol （p-G2） to form two important carbocation reactive intermediates of C-p-UG and C-p-UG1, and two important hydroxyl compounds of UG and UG1. These compounds play important roles in the formation of UG resin. According to the result of quantum chemical calculation, UG resin was synthesized successfully under weak acid conditions. The UG resin was characterized by matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry （MALDI-TOF-MS）, ultraviolet and visible spectroscopy （UV-vis）, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy （FT1R） and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy （13CNMR and 1HNMR）. These instrumental analytical results agree with each other and further confirm the addition reaction pathway of glyoxal with urea proposed by quantum chemical calculation.
