MoSi2 and MoSi2 matrix composites were prepared by self-propagating high temperature synthesis (SHS). Pure MoSi2 was obtained and a compound of MoSi2 and WSi2was synthesized in the form of predominant solid solution (Mo,W)Si2. By adding aluminum of 5.5 at.% to Mo-Si, the crystal structure of MoSi2 changed into a mixture of tetragonal Cllb MoSi2and hexagonal C40 Mo(Si,Al)2. The (Mo,W)Si2-Mo(Si,Al)2-W(Si,Al)2 composite materials were synthesized by adding aluminum of 5.5 at.% to Mo-W-Si. However, if the amount of the added aluminum was not larger than 2.5 at.%, it did not have any significant effect. SHS is an effective technology for synthesis of MoSi2 and MoSi2 matrix composites.展开更多

According to the experimental results, a relationship between the residual heat of the reaction system at 2848 K and SnO2 nanobelts yield was identified. The most appropriate formula for this self-propagating high tempera- ture synthesis method is turned out to be composed of Sn powder and thermite with weight ratio of 1:1.展开更多

The effects of NiCO3 content in the raw materials on the microstructure and magnetic properties of Ni-Zn ferrite powders were systematically studied. The Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The magnetic properties of the powders were evaluated by vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM). The results show that the introduction of NiCO3 into reactants improves the con- version percentage and refines the Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 particles. The increase of NiCO3 content enhances the magnetic properties of Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4. Particularly, the saturation magnetization reaches the maximum when the NiCO3 content is 3 at.%.展开更多
