Corrigendum to “The synergetic effect of Si and Sc on the thermal stability of the precipitates in AlCuMg alloy” [Mater. Sci. Eng. A 783 (2020) 139319]

The structure of basic lanthanum orotate (LaOr) were characterized by elemental analysis and infrared spectroscopy. The thermal stability of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) was further studied by Congo red method, oven discoloration method and thermogravimetric analysis. The results showed that LaOr could prolong the oven discoloration time of PVC, and the color was not completely blackened until 120 min. It has a good synergetic effect with dibenzoyl methane (DBM), and the best effect is achieved when LaOr/DBM ratio is 1.8/1.2. The thermal decomposition kinetics experiment showed that adding DBM can effectively improve the activation energy of PVC/LaOr. The stabilization mechanism of PVC was studied by absorbing HCl method and infrared spectroscopy. The results showed that LaOr could not only replace the unstable chlorine atoms on PVC, but also promote the long-term thermal stability of PVC by absorbing HCl.

Thermal Stability Of

Ordered-alpha titanium alloys having a DO19 type structure have good potential for high temperature (600°C) applications, due to the thermal stability of the ordered phase and the inherent resistance to recrystallization of these alloys. Five different Ti-Al-Ga alloys consisting of equal atomic percents of aluminum and gallium solute additions up to the stoichiometric composition, Ti3(Al, Ga), were used to study the growth kinetics of the ordered phase and the nature of its interface.The alloys were homogenized in the beta region in a vacuum of about 5×10-7 torr, furnace cooled; reheated in air to 50°C below the alpha transus for hot working. The alloys were subsequently acid cleaned, annealed in vacuo, and cold rolled to about. 050 inch prior to additional homogenization

Thermal Stability Of

Tungsten silicides (WSix) have been successfully used as the gate materials in self-aligned GaAs metal-semiconductor-field- effect transistors (MESFET). Thermal stability of the WSix/GaAs Schottky contact is of major concern since the n+ implanted source/drain regions must be annealed at high temperatures (∼ 800°C). WSi0.6 was considered the best composition to achieve good device performance due to its low stress and excellent thermal stability of the WSix/GaAs interface. The film adhesion and the uniformity in barrier heights and ideality factors of the WSi0.6 films have been improved by depositing a thin layer of pure W as the first layer on GaAs prior to WSi0.6 deposition. Recently WSi0.1 has been used successfully as the gate material in 1x10 μm GaAs FET's on the GaAs substrates which were sputter-cleaned prior to deposition. These GaAs FET's exhibited uniform threshold voltages across a 51 mm wafer with good film adhesion after annealing at 800°C for 10 min.
