AbstractIn order to develop non-Pd based high performance hydrogen permeation alloys, microstructure, crystal structure and hydrogen permeability of duplex phase M-ZrNi (M=V and Ta) alloys were investigated using a scanning electron microscope, an X-ray diffractometer and a gas flow meter. These results were compared with those of Nb-ZrNi ones which have been previously published. The hydrogen permeation was impossible in the V-ZrNi alloys, because they were brittle in the as-cast state. On the other hand, duplex phase alloys consisting of the bcc-(Ta, Zr) solid solution and the orthorhombic ZrNi (Cmcm) intermetallic compound were formed and hydrogen permeable in the Ta-ZrNi system. The Ta40Zr30Ni30 alloy shows the highest value of hydrogen permeability of 4.1×10-8 [molH2m-1s-1Pa-0.5] at 673 K, which is three times higher than that of pure Pd.

Abstract In order to explore an economical functional phase alternative material for thick film resistors, the crystal structure, microstructure, and electrical properties of (1-x)LSCN + xLCNZ (x = 0.0–1.0) composite ceramics were studied through solid-state reaction experiments. The composite ceramics were characterized by x–ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive x–ray spectroscopy, and DC four–probe method. Results suggested that the main phases of LSCN and LCNZ were formed, along with a small part of impurity phases. The addition of LCNZ to LSCN decreased the electrical conductivity and changed the TCR from positive to negative. Zero TCR could be achieved around 0.6 < x < 0.8 and relatively low absolute TCR values could be obtained for the samples of 0.4 ≤ x ≤ 0.8. The ceramic of 0.6LSCN + 0.4LCNZ showed the optimal performances of conductivity = 1923 S/cm, TCR = 379.54 ppm/℃, and relative density = 95.05%.

Abstract Single crystals of the new compound Ba2KZn3(B3O6)(B6O13) were obtained by using a B2O3 flux technique; they crystallize in an as yet unknown structure type. X-ray investigations led to the space group Ci1-P1̄ (Nr.2) with lattice parameters a = 705.2(2), b = 712.5(2), c = 1880.3(6), a = 93.43(3)°, β = 90.72(2)°, γ = 119.57(2)°, Z = 2. The structure contains (B3O6)3--rings and a new discrete (B6O13)8- anion, which is composed of two BO4 and two B2O5 units. Zn2+ is tetrahedrally coordinated by oxygen and two out of three tenfold coordinated Ba-sites are statistically occupied by Ba2+ and K+.

Ni - Mn - Ga ferromagnetic shape memory alloys (FSMAs) have received great attention during the past decade due to their giant magnetic shape memory effect and fast dynamic response. The crystal structure and crystallographic features of two Ni - Mn - Ga alloys were precisely determined in this study. Neutron diffraction measurements show that Ni 48 Mn 30 Ga 22 has a Heusler austenitic structure at room temperature; its crystal structure changes into a seven-layered martensitic structure when cooled to 243K. Ni 53 Mn 25 Ga 22 has an I4/mmm martensitic structure at room temperature. Electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) analyses reveal that there are only two martensitic variants with a misorientation of ~82° around <110> axis in each initial austenite grain in Ni 53 Mn 25 Ga 22. The investigation on crystal structure and crystallographic features will shed light on the development of high-performance FSMAs with optimal properties.

Single crystals of the new compounds Zn5Mn(BO3)2O4 (A ) and ZnFe(BO3)O (B) were prepared by using a B2O3 flux technique. Zn5Mn(BO3)2O4 is isostructural with Ni5Ti(BO3)2O4 and ZnFe(BO3)O is isotypic with the mineral warwickite. X-ray investigations on single crystals led to (A ) space group D92h -Pbam, a = 926.41(10), b = 1236.67(8), c = 304.55(3) pm, Z = 2, and (B) space group D162h-Pnma, a = 924.62(4), b = 314.1(10), c = 935.3(2) pm, Z = 4. The structure of Zn5Mn(BO3)2O4 (A ) contains four octahedrally coordinated metal sites, one of these statistically occupied by Zn2+ and Mn4+. In the structure of ZnFe(BO3)O the ions Zn2+ and Fe3+ occupy statistically both distorted octahedral sites. Both structures contain isolated BO3 units and oxygen that is not coordinated to boron.
