For inst...It is well known that the magnetic properties such as the Curie temperature Tmag <sub>C and the mean magnetic moment β of ordered compounds have different values from those of the disordered solutions. For instance, both Tmag c and β of the Ni3Pt (L12) and NiPt (L10) and Tmag <sub>c of the CoPt (L10) and CoPt3 (L12) ordered compounds are strongly depressed due to the ordering compared with those of the metastable disordered Ni-Pt and Co-Pt alloys. On the other hand, the γ’-FeNi3 (L12) and the α’-FeCo (B2) ordered compounds have higher Tmag <sub>c and β values comparing with the disordered solution phases, γ (A1) and α (A2), respectively. In consequence, the stability of the ordered phase is depressed or enhanced due to the interaction between the chemical and magnetic ordering caused by the decrease or increase of Tmag <sub>c and β values. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of the interaction between the chemical and the magnetic ordering on the phase equilibria in the Fe-X(X=Al, Co, Ni, Rh, Si) binary systems.The Gibbs energy of the α(A2), γ(A1) and liquid phases is described by a sub-regular solution approximation. The ordering contribution to the Gibbs energy ,ΔGorder <sub>m, and deviations of magnetic properties, ΔTmag <sub>c and Δβ, of the ordered compounds, FeAl (B2), Fe3Al (D03), FeCo (B2), FeRh (B2), FeSi (B2), Fe3Si (D03) and FeNi3 (L12) is introduced by the split compound energy formalism. Effect of the interaction between the chemical ordering, B2, D03 and L12 and the magnetic ordering on the phase equilibria will be discussed according to the calculated phase diagrams of the Fe-X binary systems.展开更多

The solubility and density of the equilibrium liquid phase were determined by the isothermal solution saturation method. The equilibrium solids were also investigated by the Schreinemaker's method of wet residues and X-ray powder diffraction(XRD). According to the experimental data, the phase diagrams were determined. It was found that there was no significant solubility difference on the Na Cl-rich side between the ternary system(Na Cl + Na_2SO_4+ H_2O) in coal gasification wastewater and in pure water. However, the solubility on the Na_2SO_4-rich side of coal gasification wastewater was apparently higher than that of pure water. The increase in the solubility of Na_2SO_4 was most likely caused by the effects of other impurities apart from Na Cl and Na_2SO_4 in coal gasification wastewater. The measured data and phase equilibrium diagrams can provide fundamental basis for salt recovery in coal gasification wastewater.展开更多

Models for phase equilibria for these systems have not yet been developed in open literatures and thus require urgent attention. In this work, the first attempt has been made to model phase equilibria of semiclathrate hydrates of CH4, CO2 and N2 in aqueous solution of TBAB. A thermodynamic model for gas hydrate system as proposed by Chen and Guo has been extended for semiclathrate hydrates of gases in aqueous solution of TBAB. A correlation for the activity of water relating to the system temperature, concentration of TBAB in the system and the nature of guest gas molecule has been proposed. The model results have been validated against available experimental data on phase equilibria of semiclathrate hydrate systems of aqueous TBAB with different gases as guest molecule. The extended Chen and Guo's model is found to be suitable to explain the promotion effect of TBAB for the studied gaseous system such as, methane, carbon dioxide and nitrogen as a guest molecule. Additionally, a correlation for the increase in equilibrium formation temperature (hydrate promotion temperature, ATp) of semiclathrate hydrate system with respect to pure gas hydrate system has been developed and applied to semiclathrate hydrate of TBAB with several gases as guest molecules. The developed correlation is found to predict the promotion effect satisfactorily for the system studied.展开更多

The partial isothermal section at 1 273 K, which contains four single-phase regions, five two-phase regions and two three-phase regions, is basically the same as that at 1 973 K. However, when the temperature increases to 2 073 K, the three-phase region of Nbss+ct-(Nb(Mo))sSi3+13-(Nb,Mo)sSi3 obviously moves towards the Nb-rich comer. This suggests that Nb-Si-Mo ternary alloys remain stable at least up to 1 973 K.展开更多

文摘The Levenberg-Marquardt method, the best algorithm to obtain the least-square solution of nonlinear equations, is applied to calculate the stable phase equilibria. It can get the best combination between robustness and speed of the calculations. Its application to ternary AI-Si-Mg system is executed in detail. The calculated phase equilibria agree well with the experimental results. Furthermore, the Levenberg-Marquardt method is not sensitive to the initial values.
文摘Experimental studies on phase equilibria and liquidus temperature in the PbO-ZnO-CaO-SiO2-"Fe2O3" system,with the mass ratios of CaO/SiO2=1-1.6 and Fe/SiO2= 1.3-1.7,and 40% PbO and 8% ZnO,were carried out between 1273 and 1573 K.Slags were equilibrated at 1273 to 1573 K and cooled rapidly by quenching.The XRD and SEM-EDS results showed that the slag compositions are in the franklinite primary phase field.Calcium and lead silicates are formed between 1373 and 1473 K.The Ca/Pb silicate and magnetoplumbite phases are partially formed by an incongruent reaction.The experimental and thermodynamical results showed that the liquidus increased by increasing CaO/SiO2 mass ratio and decreasing Fe/SiO2 mass ratio.

文摘Phase relations of the Ti-Ni-Sn ternary system were investigated via alloy sampling assisted with X-ray diffractometry(XRD)and electron probe micro-analysis(EPMA).A new binary phase with composition of TiSn4(molar fraction,%)was detected at 508 K.In addition,a supplementary phase(Ti1-x-yNixSny)Ni3(τ,AuCu3-type)was observed at 873 and 973 K.According to the characterised microscopic structure in various annealed alloys,four ternary phases were detected in Ti-Ni-Sn ternary system:TiNiSn,TiNi2Sn,Ti2Ni2Sn and(Ti1-x-yNixSny)Ni3.Additionally,isothermal sections of Ti-Ni-Sn ternary system at 508,873 and 973 K were constructed.By comparing three isothermal sections,a peri-eutectic reaction,L+TiNi2Sn→Ni3Sn4+TiNiSn,was deduced,which occurs at a temperature between 873 and 973 K.Furthermore,the solubility of Sn in TiNi and Ni in Ti5Sn3 was detected.

文摘Liquid-liquid equilibrium (LLE) data for the water + butyric acid + nonanol system have been determined experimentally at the temperatures of 298.15 K, 308.15 K and 318.15 K. Tie-line compositions were correlated by Othmer-Tobias method. The universal quasichemical functional group activity coefficient (UNIFAC) and modified UNIFAC methods were used to predict the phase equilibrium in the system using the interaction parameters between CH3, CH2, COOH, OH and H2O functional groups. Distribution coefficients and separation factors were evaluated for the immiscibility region.
