Silane coupling agent KH560 was used to modify the surface of nano-α-Al2O3 in ethanol-aqueous solution with different proportions. The particle size of nano-α-Al2O3 was determined by nano-particle size analyzer, and the effects of nano-α-Al2O3 content, ethanol-aqueous solution ratio and KH560 dosage on the dispersion and particle size of nano-α-Al2O3 were investigated. The material structure before and after modification was determined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Aqueous polyurethane resin and inorganic components are combined with modified nano-α-Al2O3 dispersion to form chromium-free passivation solution. The solution is coated on the galvanized sheet, the adhesion and surface hardness are tested, the bonding strength of the coating and the surface hardness of the substrate are discussed. The corrosion resistance and surface morphology of the matrix were investigated by electrochemical test, neutral salt spray test and scanning electron microscope test. The chromium-free passivation film formed after the modification of nano-α-Al2O3 increases the surface hardness of galvanized sheet by about 85%. The corrosion resistance of the film is better than that of a single polyurethane film. The results show that the surface hardness and corrosion resistance of polyurethane resin composite passivation film are significantly improved by the introduction of nano-α-Al2O3.

Structure of Bi_2O_3-ZnO-B_2O_3 system low-melting sealing glass

Bi2O3-ZnO-B2O3 system glass is a kind of lead-free low melting sealing glasses. The structure of Bi2O3-ZnO-B2O3 system low-melting sealing glass was investigated by DSC, FT-IR, XRD and SEM. The results show that with the increase of B2O3 content, the transition temperature Tg and softening temperature Tf of Bi2O3-ZnO-B2O3 system low-melting sealing glasses increase, which leads to the liquid phase precipitation temperature increasing and promotes the structure stability in the glass. With increasing the heat treatment temperature, a large number of liquid phases appear in samples and the sinter efficiency of the samples increases. The FT-IR spectra of the glasses show the presence of some bands that are assigned to vibrations of Bi--O bond from [BO3] pyramidal and [BiO6] octahedral units and B--O from [BO3] and [BO4] units. With the decrease of B203 content, the crystallization tendency of the glass increases. In glass samples Bl and B〉 crystallization starts at 460 ℃ and 540 ℃, respectively. Both of them precipitate Bi24B2O39 phases.

Microstructure and microwave dielectric properties of lead borosilicate glass ceramics with Al_2O_3

The effects of Al2O3 addition on both the sintering behavior and microwave dielectric properties of PbO-B203-SiO2 glass ceramics were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscope （FTIR）, differential thermal analysis （DTA）, X-ray diffraction （XRD） and scanning electron microscopy （SEM）. The results show that with the increase of Al2O3 content the bands assigned to [SiO4] nearly disappear. Aluminum replaces silicon in the glass network, which is helpful for the formation of boron-oxygen rings. The increase of the transition temperature Tg and softening temperature Tf of PbO-B2O3-SiO2 glass ceramics leads to the increase of liquid phase precipitation temperature and promotes the structure stability in the glasses, and consequently contributes to the decreasing trend of crystallization. Densification and dielectric constants increase with the increase of Al2O3 content, but the dielectric loss is worsened. By contrast, the 3% （mass fraction） Al2O3-doped glass ceramics sintered at 725℃ have better properties of density p=2.72 g/cm3, dielectric constant Er=6.78, dielectric loss tan8=2.6×10^-3 （measured at 9.8 GHz）, which suggest that the glass ceramics can be applied in multilayer microwave devices requiring low sintering temperatures.

Three-photon-excited fluorescence of Tb^(3+)-doped CaO-Al_2O_3-SiO_2 glass by femtosecond laser irradiation

A near infrared to visible blue, green, and red upconversion luminescence in a Tb^3＋-doped CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 glass was studied, which was excited using 800 nm femtosecond laser irradiation. The upconversion luminescence was attributed to ^5D3→^7F5, ^5D3→^7F4, ^5D3→^7F3, ^5D4→^7F6, ^5D4→^7F5, ^5D4→^7F4, and ^5D4→^7F3 transitions of Tb^3＋. The relationship between upconversion luminescence intensity and the pump power indicated that a three-photon simultaneous absorption process was dominant in this upconversion luminescence. The intense red, green, and blue upconversion luminescence of Tb^3＋-doped CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 glass may be potentially useful in developing three-dimensional display applications.

The results show that silica ceramic filler can better improve the formation of Si- O-Si network in the composites under high temperature, which leads to increased continuity of glass network at high temperature, and deduces the increase of viscosity of composites and further results in the decrease in the shrinkage of samples. Densification, three-point strength, and dielectric constant of samples decrease with the increase of silica glass or silica ceramic content. By contrast, Ca-Al-B-Si-O glass/Al2O3 composites with 4 wt% silica ceramic exhibit better properties of a bulk density of 2.81 g.cm-3, a porosity of 0.3%, a 3dp value of 202 MPa, a er value of 7.41 , a tan d value of 8.3 ×10^-4 at 10 MHz and a well matching with Ag electrodes.

JOINING MECHANISMS OF β"-Al_2O_3 CERAMIC AND PYREX GLASS TO Al MATRIX COMPOSITE

The bonding of β″-Al2O3 and pyrex glass to A1 matrix composites by anodic bonding process is achieved. The microstructure of the bonded interface and the joining mechanisms are analyzed with scanning electron microscope （SEM）, energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometer （EDX）. It is observed that the bonding region across the interface consists of the metal layer, oxide transitional layer and the ceramic layer, with the transitional layer composed of surface region and sub-surface region. The bonding process can mainly be categorized into anodic bonding process and solid state diffusing process. The pile-up of the ions and its drift in the interface area are the main reasons for anode oxidation and joining of the interface. The temperature, voltage and the drift ions in the ceramic or glass during the bonding process are the essential conditions to solid state diffusing and oxide bonding at the interface. The voltages, temperature, pressure as well as the surface state are the main factors that influence the anodic bonding.

The effects of alkali oxides （Na2O and K2O addition on both the sintering behavior and dielectric properties of Ca-AI-B-Si-O glass/Al2O3 composites were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy （FTIR）, differential scanning calorimeter （DSC）, X-ray diffractometry （XRD） and scanning electron microscopy （SEM）. The results show that the increasing amount of alkali oxides in the glass causes the decrease of [SiO4], which results in the decrease of the continuity of glass network, and leads to the decrease of the softening temperature Tf of the samples and the increasing trend of crystallization. And that deduces corresponding rise of densification, dielectric constant, dielectric loss of the low temperature co-fired ceramic （LTCC） materials and the decrease of its thermal conductivity. By contrast, the borosilicate glass/A1203 composites with 1.5% （mass fraction） alkali oxides sintered at 875 ℃ for 30 rain exhibit better properties of a bulk density of 2.79 g/cm3, a porosity of 0.48%, a 2 value of 2.28 W/（m.K）, a er value of 7.82 and a tand value of 9.1 × 10-4 （measured at 10 MHz）.

Preparation,Structures,Thermal Properties and Sintering Behaviors of B_2O_3-SiO_2-ZnO-BaO-Al_2O_3 Glass

B_2O_3-SiO_2-ZnO-BaO-Al_2O_3 glass with different Al_2O_3 contents（1mol%, 3mol%, 5mol%, and 7mol%） was prepared, and it was intended to be used as lead-free and low-melting glass sealants for solid oxide fuel cells. The effects of Al_2O_3 content on the structures, thermal properties, and sintering behaviors of the B_2O_3-SiO_2-ZnO-BaO-Al_2O_3 glass were investigated in detail.

When the Al_2O_3 content 5mol%, the transition temperature of the glass decreased with the Al_2O_3 content, while the crystallization temperature increased with the Al_2O_3 content. However, higher Al_2O_3 content degraded the stability of the glass. The B_2O_3-SiO_2-ZnO-BaO-Al_2O_3 glass with 5 mol% Al_2O_3 content exhibits the optimal sintering densification characteristics and can be used as glass sealants for solid oxide fuel cells.

Bright long afterglow phosphorescence glasses were prepared by using SrAl2O4： Eu^2＋, Dy^3＋ phosphors and suitable glass frits together. The SrAl2O4： Eu^2＋, Dy^3＋ phosphors were initially prepared by the solid reaction method. Three kinds of glass frits were prepared to match the SrAl2O4： Eu^2＋, Dy^3＋ phosphors.

The emission spectra of the samples showed broad bands peaking at 510nm.The excitation spectra of the samples showed broad bands ranging from 300 to 480hm. These are believed due to the 5d4f-4f transitions of Eu^2＋ in the SrAl2O4： Eu^2＋, Dy^3＋ phosphors. The afterglow luminescence of the samples excited by a 40W fluorescence lamp for 30min can be observed in the dark for more lOh with the naked eyes. It can find wide applications in many fields.

Glasses based on ZnO-Bi_2O_3-B_2O_3 system are expected to be a new kind of sealing glasses because of their low melting temperature and other properties.In order to reveal the effect of B_2O_3 on the rheological behavior of ZnO-Bi_2O_3-B_2O_3 system glass melt,the properties of viscosity,thermal expansion,fluxion property and wetting process between cylinder samples and stainless steel were investigated with the rotating crucible viscometer,dilato meter and high-temperature microscope.The structure of sintered glass samples was investigated with scanning electron microscope.The results show that the B_2O_3 content increasing in B_1-B_3 at the given temperature between 400 ℃ and 500 ℃ leads to the increasing of the sample viscosity.When the amount of B_2O_3 increases from 5.24%to 9.24%(mass fraction),the coefficients of thermal expansion of glass samples decrease smoothly from 10.94×10^(-6) to10.71×10^(-6) and 10.38×10^(-6) ℃^(-1) respectively.In the case of sealing temperature,its value increases from 453 ℃ to 494 ℃.ZnO-Bi_2O_3-B_2O_3 system low-melting glass powder sintering was with viscous liquid to participate,which could make the densification of glass sample more effective and more efficient.With the content of B_2O_3 increasing,the wetting angle between the glasses samples and stainless steel could also increase,and the resulting appropriate sealing temperature range is 460-490 ℃.

The Effect of Sm_2O_3 on the Chemical Stability of Borosilicate Glass and Glass Ceramics

Sm2O3 containing zinc-borosilicate glass and glass ceramics were prepared by melt quenching method, and the effect of Sm2O3 and micro-crystallization on the chemical stability of borosilicate glass was explored. DTA analysis showed that the endothermic peak and exothermic peak of basic glass changed from 635 ℃ and 834 ℃ to 630 ℃ and 828 ℃ respectively as a result of the doping of Sm2O3. XRD analysis showed the promoting effect of Sm2O3 on crystallization ability of this glass. The cumulative mass loss of base glass, Sm2O3 containing glass, glass ceramic and Sm2O3 containing glass ceramic was 0.289, 0.253, 0.329, 0.269 mg/mm2 respectively after 26 days corrosion in alkali solution, and 1.293, 1.290, 0.999, 1.040 mg/mm2 respectively in acidic erosion medium. Micro-crystallization decreased and improved the alkali and acid resistance of borosilicate glass respectively, the addition of Sm2O3 increased the alkali resistance of base glass and glass ceramics, and the slight effect of Sm2O3 on the acid resistance of borosilicate glass was also observed.

Crystallization and properties of some CaO-Al_2O_3-SiO_2 system glass-ceramics with Y_2O_3 addition

The crystallization behavior and mechanical properties of CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 (CAS) system glass-ceramics with addition of Y2O3 were investigated. The optimal sintering temperatures of all heat-treated glasses were altered and the crystallization was accelerated with Y2O3 addition, and only wollastonite as a main crystalline phase was precipitated. The volume fraction of crystalline phase and density were increased with Y2O3 addition. The results suggest that the CAS glass-ceramics would get the lowest sintering temperature and optimal microstructure with the addition of Y2O3 by 3.25 %. The bending strength has a maximum due to the oriented and interlocked wollastonite crystal, which causes crack divert or blunts to limit the further development of the flaw size and increases the surface energy of fracture.
