The 5-h oxidation of n-dodecane at 200 °C by air at 1 atm is reported for experiments in a borosilicate glass reaction chamber equipped with a gas bubbler. The rate of reaction was limited by the rate of oxygen diffusion from the gas phase due to the rapid reaction of dissolved oxygen. The reaction products were analyzed in aliquots taken periodically from the reaction chamber. Chemical analyses, gas–liquid phase chromatography (g.l.p.c.), tandem g.l.p.c.-mass spectroscopy, infrared, and ultraviolet were used to identify products accounting for 98% of the oxygen reacted. The isomer distribution of the dodecenes, dodecanols, and dodecanones formed, as well as the distribution of carboxylic acids, were determined. Three classes of intramolecular reaction products, cyclic ethers, cyclic hydrocarbons, and lactones, were detected. Many volatile products were detected. A filterable precipitate obtained after 10 h of oxidation was studied using infrared attenuated total reflectance techniques. A reaction mechanism is discussed based on current knowledge of other systems, the products identified, and the stoichiometry of the reaction.


The chemical nature of the cool flame of hexane at 300°C, maintained stationary in a flow system at atmospheric pressure, has been investigated. The relative intensities of cool flames obtained from mixtures of differing composition have been measured, using a photomultiplier cell, and correlated with analyses made of the complex mixture of reaction products. The stationary two-stage flames which may be obtained at either higher oxygen concentrations or higher pressures than the cool flame are also described, and investigated similarly. The results are examined in the light of a theory of combustion of the higher hydrocarbons via aldehydes and hydroxyl radicals, which is an extension of a mechanism derived for the oxidation of methane. This receives considerable support, particularly from the identification of the complete homologous series of saturated aldehydes which can result from the hexane molecule. Associated with these reactions are others due to the greater stability of peroxide radicals at 300°C than at the higher temperatures of methane oxidation. Thus the building up of a partial pressure of hydroperoxide sufficient to ignite in the presence of oxygen may initiate the cool flame, and considerable amounts of cyclic ethers have been found which probably had a peroxidic precursor.

In electron microscopy, lead is the metal most widely used for enhancing specimen contrast. Lead citrate requires a pH of 12 to stain thin sections of epoxy-embedded material rapidly and intensively. However, this high alkalinity tends to leach out enzyme reaction products, making lead citrate unsuitable for many cytochemical studies. Substitution of the chelator aspartate for citrate allows staining to be carried out at pH 6 or 7 without apparent effect on cytochemical products. Moreover, due to the low, controlled level of free lead ions, contamination-free staining can be carried out en bloc, prior to dehydration and embedding. En bloc use of lead aspartate permits the grid-staining step to be bypassed, allowing samples to be examined immediately after thin-sectioning.Procedures. To prevent precipitation of lead salts, double- or glass-distilled H20 used in the stain and rinses should be boiled to drive off carbon dioxide and glassware should be carefully rinsed to remove any persisting traces of calcium ion.

The formation of oxide structures on single crystal films of metals has been investigated using the REMEDIE system (for Reflection Electron Microscopy and Electron Diffraction at Intermediate Energies) (1). Using this instrument scanning images can be obtained with a 5 to 15keV incident electron beam by collecting either secondary or diffracted electrons from the crystal surface (2). It is particularly suited to studies of the present sort where the surface reactions are strongly related to surface morphology and crystal defects and the growth of reaction products is inhomogeneous and not adequately described in terms of a single parameter. Observation of the samples has also been made by reflection electron diffraction, reflection electron microscopy and replication techniques in a JEM-100B electron microscope.A thin single crystal film of copper, epitaxially grown on NaCl of (100) orientation, was repositioned on a large copper single crystal of (111) orientation.

Interest in precipitation processes in silicon appears to be centered on transition metals (for intrinsic and extrinsic gettering), and oxygen and carbon in thermally aged materials, and on oxygen, carbon, and nitrogen in ion implanted materials to form buried dielectric layers. A steadily increasing number of applications of microanalysis to these problems are appearing. but still far less than the number of imaging/diffraction investigations. Microanalysis applications appear to be paced by instrumentation development. The precipitation reaction products are small and the presence of carbon is often an important consideration. Small high current probes are important and cryogenic specimen holders are required for consistent suppression of contamination buildup on specimen areas of interest. Focussed probes useful for microanalysis should be in the range of 0.1 to 1nA, and estimates of spatial resolution to be expected for thin foil specimens can be made from the curves shown in Fig. 1.

Fiber reinforced titanium alloys hold immense potential for applications in the aerospace industry. However, chemical reaction between the fibers and the titanium alloys at fabrication temperatures leads to the formation of brittle reaction products which limits their development. In the present study, coated SiC fibers have been used to evaluate the effects of surface coating on the reaction zone in the SiC/IMI829 system.IMI829 (Ti-5.5A1-3.5Sn-3.0Zr-0.3Mo-1Nb-0.3Si), a near alpha alloy, in the form of PREP powder (-35 mesh), was used a茸 the matrix. CVD grown AVCO SCS-6 SiC fibers were used as discontinuous reinforcements. These fibers of 142μm diameter contained an overlayer with high Si/C ratio on top of an amorphous carbon layer, the thickness of the coating being ∽ 1μm. SCS-6 fibers, broken into ∽ 2mm lengths, were mixed with IMI829 powder (representing < 0.1vol%) and the mixture was consolidated by HIP'ing at 871°C/0. 28GPa/4h.

The Ni4Mo alloy has a short-range ordered fee structure (α) above 868°C, but transforms below this temperature to an ordered bet structure (β) by rearrangement of atoms on the fee lattice. The disordered α, retained by rapid cooling, can be ordered by appropriate aging below 868°C. Initially, very fine β domains in six different but crystallographically related variants form and grow in size on further aging. However, in the temperature range 600-775°C, a coarsening reaction begins at the former α grain boundaries and the alloy also coarsens by this mechanism. The purpose of this paper is to report on TEM observations showing the characteristics of this grain boundary reaction.

The state of long-range order (LRO) and short-range order (SRO) in Ni4Mo has been a topic of interest for a considerable time (see Brooks et al.). The SRO is often referred to as 1½0 order from the apparent position of the diffuse maxima in diffraction patterns, which differs from the positions of the LRO (D1a) structure. Various studies have shown that a fully disordered state cannot be retained by quenching, as the atomic arrangements responsible for the 1½0 maxima are present at temperatures above the critical ordering temperature for LRO. Over 20 studies have attempted to identify the atomic arrangements associated with this state of order. A variety of models have been proposed, but no consensus has been reached. It has also been shown that 1 MeV electron irradiation at low temperatures (∼100 K) can produce the disordered phase in Ni4Mo. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atom probe field ion microscopy (APFIM), and electron irradiation disordering have been applied in the current study to further the understanding of the ordering processes in Ni4Mo.

Cermets are designed to optimize the mechanical properties of ceramics (hard and strong component) and metals (ductile and tough component) into one system. However, the processing of such systems is a problem in obtaining fully dense composite without deleterious reaction products. In the lightweight (2.65 g/cc) B4C-Al cermet, many of the processing problems have been circumvented. It is now possible to process fully dense B4C-Al cermet with tailored microstructures and achieve unique combination of mechanical properties (fracture strength of over 600 MPa and fracture toughness of 12 MPa-m1/2). In this paper, microstructure and fractography of B4C-Al cermets, tested under dynamic and static loading conditions, are described.The cermet is prepared by infiltration of Al at 1150°C into partially sintered B4C compact under vacuum to full density. Fracture surface replicas were prepared by using cellulose acetate and thin-film carbon deposition. Samples were observed with a Philips 3000 at 100 kV.
