One hundred and thirty-five degree clock rolling significantly improves the texture homogeneity of tantalum sheets along the thickness, but a distinctly fragmented substructure is formed within {111} (<111>//normal direction (ND)) and {100} (<100>//ND) deformation grains, which is not suitable to obtain a uniform recrystallization microstructure. Thus, effects of different annealing temperatures on the microstructure and texture heterogeneity of tantalum sheets along the thickness were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Results show that the texture distribution along θ-fiber and γ-fiber is irregular and many large grains with {111} orientation develop during annealing at high temperature. However, low-temperature annealing can not only weaken the texture intensity in the surface and the center layer but also introduce a more uniform grain size distribution. This result can be attributed to the subgrain-nucleation-dominated recrystallization mechanism induced by recovery at low temperature, and moreover, a considerable decline of recrystallization driving force resulting from the release of stored energy in the deformation matrix.

ABSTRACTLow temperature, 600°C annealing of LPCVD films was investigated by x-ray diffraction, ESR, TEM, and carrier mobility measurements. An optimum deposition temperature of about 550°C was found to yield good crystallinity and large electron mobility for annealed films; large grain sizes, a maximum crystallite size, and a maximum electron spin density were also observed for films deposited at the optimum temperature. Electron spin density for as-deposited films correlated with the crystalline volume by x-ray diffraction measurements on the films after annealing. This implys that only those amorphous components with high electron spin density can be converted into the crystalline phase by 600°C annealing.

An investigation has been made of the structural changes that accompany low-temperature annealing (structural relaxations) in two different metallic glasses using X-ray and neutron diffraction, calorimetry, and density measurements. The structure of Fe83B17 having the archetypal composition of transition-metal – metalloid glasses appears to be more susceptible to structural relaxation than Ni64B36 glass with a higher metalloid content. This behaviour is reflected in the smaller enthalpy of relaxation of the Ni64B36 glass. The structural changes observed are discussed in terms of current structural models.

AbstractHigh-temperature X-ray diffraction techniques were employed to study the condensation reactions which occur when sodium orthophosphates are heated to 380°C. Crystalline Na4P2O7 and an amorphous phase were formed first from an equimolar mixture of Na2HPO4·NaH2PO4 and Na2HPO4 at temperatures above 150°C. Further heating resulted in the formation of Na5P3O10-I (high-temperature form) at the expense of the crystalline Na4P4O7 and amorphous phase. Crystalline Na5P3O10-II (low-temperature form) appears after Na5P3O10-I.Conditions which affect the yield of crystalline Na4P2O7 and amorphous phase as intermediates and their effect on the yield of Na5P3O10 are also presented.

Kaolin M1 and M2 studied by X-ray diffraction focus on the mullite phase, which is the main phase present in both products. The Williamson–Hall and Warren–Averbach methods for determining the crystallite size and microstrains of integral breadth β are calculated by the FullProf program. The integral breadth ( β) is a mixture resulting from the microstrains and size effect, so this should be taken into account during the calculation. The Williamson–Hall chart determines whether the sample is affected by grain size or microstrain. It appears very clearly that the principal phase of the various sintered kaolins, mullite, is free from internal microstrains. It is the case of the mixtures fritted at low temperature (1200 °C) during 1 h and also the case of the mixtures of the type chamotte cooks with 1350 °C during very long times (several weeks). This result is very significant as it gives an element of explanation to a very significant quality of mullite: its mechanical resistance during uses at high temperature remains.

AbstractA new silicate-germanate K2Y[(Si3Ge)O10(OH)] was synthesized hydrothermally in a system Y2O3:GeO2:SiO2 = 1:1:2 (T = 280 °C; P = 90–100 atm.); K2CO3 was added to the solution as a mineralizer. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction experiment was carried out at low temperature (150 K). The unit cell parameters are a = 10.4975(4), b = 6.9567(2), c = 15.4001(6) Å, β = 104.894(4)°; V = 1086.86(7) Å3; space group is P 21/c. A novel complex anion is presented by corrugated (Si,Ge) tetrahedral layers connected by couples of YO6 octahedra into the mixed microporous framework with the channels along b and a axes, the maximal size of cross-section is ~5.6 Å. This structure has similarity with the two minerals: ring silicate gerenite (Ca,Na)2(Y,REE)3Si6O18 · 2H2O and chain silicate chkalovite Na2BeSi2O6. Six-member rings with 1̅ symmetry as in gerenite are distinguished in the new layer. They are mutually perpendicular to each other and connected by additional tetrahedra. Straight crossing chains in chkalovite change to zigzag four-link chains in the new silicate-germanate layer.

Fe-based bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) are a unique class of materials that are attracting attention in a wide variety of applications owing to their physical properties. Several studies have investigated and designed the relationships between alloy composition and thermal properties of BMGs using an artificial neural network (ANN). The limitation of the wide-scale use of these models is that the required composition is yet to be found despite numerous case studies. To address this issue, we trained an ANN to design Fe-based BMGs that predict the thermal properties. Models were trained using only the composition of the alloy as input and were created from a database of more than 150 experimental data of Fe-based BMGs from relevant literature. We adopted these ANN models to design BMGs with thermal properties to satisfy the intended purpose using particle swarm optimization. A melt spinner was employed to fabricate the designed alloys. X-ray diffraction and differential thermal analysis tests were used to evaluate the specimens.
