Then Finite Element Method (FEM) has been applied to simulate the solidification process. Parameters including casting speed, casting temperature and cooling conditions have been analyzed. It is shown that different parameters have different influence on the thermal process and must be carefully controlled in continuous casting process. Finally, the simulated results are compared with the experimental ones.展开更多

A series of air-cooled bainitic steels containing manganese were developed and presented, which include low carbon granular bainitic steels, low carbon grain-boundary allotriomorphic ferrite/granular bainite dual phase steels, medium and medium high carbon bainite/martensite dual phase steel, low carbon carbide free bainite/martensite dual phase steels and casting bainitic steels. The development of ultra-low carbon bainitic steels in China was also introduced.展开更多

The results showed that the maximum hydrogen absorption capacity of Mg2Ni is 3.25 mass fraction at 523 K, just after synthesis without any activation. The relationships between the equilibrium plateau pressure and the temperature for Mg2Ni were lgp (0.1 MPa)=-3026/T+5.814 (523 K≤T≤623 K) for hydriding and Igp (0.1 MPa)=-3613/T+6.715 (523 K≤T ≤623 K) for dehydriding. The kinetic equation is [-ln(1-a)]3/2 = kt and the apparent activation energy for the nucleation and growth-controlled hydrogen absorption and desorption were determined to be 64.3±2.31kJ/(mol.H2) and 59.9±2.99kJ/(mol.H2)respectively.展开更多

The research achievements of RE magnets reach international level. The intermetallic nitrides with ThMn12-type structure of RFe series which possess Chinese proprietary were prepared. The output of RE magnets has ranked second in the world. The production of RE magnets will be steadily expanding with the expiration of NdFeB patent in 2003. Some related data were also presented.展开更多

The microstructure and alloy elements distribution in the oxidation scale of unimplanted and Nb implanted titanium alloy were investigated by using SEM, XRD and AES. The addition of Nb could reduce the number of point defects and decrease the solubility of oxygen in the alloy substrate. Therefore, the oxidation resistance of the alloy in air at 650℃ is remarkably improved.展开更多

The experimental results show that the β 21S alloy has a better oxidation resistance than the commercial pure titanium, oxidation proceeds by growth of a surface oxide of TiO 2 and oxygen dissolution into the metal, oxidation initially follows an approximate linear oxidation rate which is followed by an approximate parabolic rate, the activation energies are 24.0 kJ/mol and 47.6 kJ/mol, respectively.展开更多
