Boron atoms have segregated to original austeniteboundaries betfore ferrite reaction starts during isothermal treatment. The concentration of boron in small Pieces offerrite foming along austenite boundaries may be remarkably higher than that in austenite matrix, but it will reducegradually when the ferrite continuously grows. There is no obvious boron segregation on interface of γ/α and α/α.These facts indicate that ferrite growth is not controlled by diffusion of boron in austenite.展开更多

A comparative study of Reactions A (ASWCNT (5,5) and CCl2) and B (ASWBNNT (5,5) and CCl2) have been performed by using ONIOM (B3LYP/6-31G*: AM1) method in Gaussian03 program package. The results show that (1) the two reactions are both exothermic; (2) the mechanism of Reaction B is a two-step mechanism; (3) the difference in energy barriers suggests that the reaction of CCl2 with BNNT is easier than with CNT; (4) in reaction B, CCl2 prefers to attack the boron atom of BNNT first.展开更多

In BN based investment shell molds, the face coatings are made of pretreated hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) with a few yttria (Y2O3) and colloidal yttria as binder. The Ti-6Al-4V alloy was melted in a controlled atmosphere induction furnace with a segment water-cooled copper crucible. The cross-section of reaction interface between Ti alloys and shell mold was investigated by electron probe micro-analyzer (EPMA) and microhardness tester. The results show that the reaction is not serious, the thickness of the reacting layer is about 30-50 μm, and the thickness of α-case is about 180-200 pro. Moreover the α-case formation mechanism was also discussed.展开更多

By means of this route, the crystallinity of BN nanoparticleswas improved via increasing the reaction steps. Meanwhile, a phase transformation from hexagonal BN(hBN) or tur-bostratic BN(tBN) to cubic BN(cBN) occurred, resulting in the increase of cBN content. Moreover, the content ofcBN also slightly increased when the temperature was elevated from 265 ℃ to 280 ℃.展开更多

The effects of sintering temperature on the mechanical properties and microstructure of the resultant products were investigated and the reaction mechanism was discussed. Results showed that the reaction between B and N2 occurred vigorously at temperatures ranging from 1 000 ℃ to 1 300 ℃, which resulted in the generation of t-BN. When the temperature exceeded 1 450 ℃, transformation from t-BN to h-BN began to occur. As the sintering temperature increased, the spherical particles of t-BN gradually transformed into fine sheet particles of h-BN. These particles subsequently displayed a compact arrangement to achieve a more uniform microstructure, thereby increasing the strength.展开更多

A new semi-empirical boron combustion model is built on the King combustion model, which contains a chemical reaction path; two new methods of plasma-assisted boron combustion based on kinetic and thermal effects respectively are built on the ZDPLASKIN zero-dimensional plasma model. A plasma-supporting system is constructed based on the planar flame, discharge characteristics and the spectral characteristics of plasma and boron combustion are analyzed. The results show that discharge power does not change the sorts of excited-particles, but which can change the concentration of excited-particles. Under this experimental condition,plasma kinetic effect will become the strongest at the discharge power of 40 W; when the discharge power is less than 40 W,plasma mainly has kinetic effect, otherwise plasma has thermal effect. Numerical simulation result based on plasma kinetic effect is consistent with the experimental result at the discharge power of 40 W, and boron ignition delay time is shortened by 53.8% at the discharge power of 40 W, which indicates that plasma accelerates boron combustion has reaction kinetic paths, while the ability to accelerate boron combustion based on thermal effect is limited.展开更多
