The effects of asymmetric and symmetric rolling at room temperature on mechanical properties and microstructure of the commercial purity Ti were investigated by means of mechanical test, optical microscopy, X-ray diffraction and transition electron microscopy. The results show that through asymmetric and symmetric rolling processes the ultimate tensile strength is substantially increased from 450 MPa to 960 MPa. Microstructure observation illustrates this variation in mechanical property is caused by the grain refinement and work hardening.

The present paper describes the possibility of strong porous ceramics preparation from hydroxyapatite nanopowders. The as-dried hydroxyapatite nanopowders were uniaxially compacted and sintered. The sintered ceramics and nanopowders were analyzed by methods of transition electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray phase diffraction. The ceramics gas-penetration and hardness were measured. The methods of pore control were tested. The ceramics samples with open equally dispersed pores were received; the pores and grain size is about micron and less. The results are useful for making medical implantate and membrane ceramics with controlled pores size.

ABSTRACTIn-situ annealing TEM experiments were performed on the Ti/GaAs system in order to study the dynamic behavior of interfacial reactions. Both plan-view and cross-sectional samples were investigated in either diffraction and imaging (both conventional and high resolution) modes. During experiments, we observed the following: (a) At the initial stage of reaction, the TiAs phase formed at the original Ti/GaAs interface with a distinct orientation with respect to the substrate; (b) as the reaction proceeded, the TiAs phase formed in a random manner; (c) finally, the liberated Ga species from the GaAs diffused out to the metal film and formed TiGa2 phase in the plan-view sample similar to the furnace-annealed case. For the cross-sectional sample, however, we did not observe any Ti:Ga phase formation. Instead, we observed the formation of voids both in the Ti film and in the GaAs substrate. The formation of different microstructure between in-situ and furnace annealed cases is explained by the sample geometry during annealing.

AbstractThe damage production in the Si9Ge6 superlattices (SLs) upon implantation of 150 keV Ar+ ions at 300 K was studied my means of the cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy (XTEM) and electron microdiffraction. It was found that the amorphization occurs in a narrow dose range of (1 – 2) × 1014 cm-2 via accumulation of point defects. The conclusion drawn earlier (Mater. Sci. Forum 248-249, 289 (1997)) on the coherent amorphization of the Si and Ge layers in the SLs was confirmed. Possible mechanisms of the layer interaction leading to the observed behavior are discussed.

Resistive relative humidity (RH) sensors were fabricated by nano composites of nylon-6 and titanium dioxide nanopowders. The results indicated that these sensors can be fabricated as a reliable, low cost and fast response instruments. Different percentages of nylon-6 and TiO2 were studied and average diameters of the resultant nanofibers were found the 80 to 120 nm. The nano composite of nylon-6/TiO2 nanofibers was electrospun on the interdigital gold electrode on the glass substrate. It was found that the impedance of the mat ranged from 107 Ω to 102 Ω while the relative humidity was increased from 11% RH and 97.3% at room temperature. Transition electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to study the morphology of the nano composite.

A composite coating was prepared on Ti-6Al-4V surface by the combination of nitriding, Mo-sputtering and sulfurizing treatments. The microstructure and phase constituent of the composite coating were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively. Furthermore, the cross-sectional hardness gradient of the coating was determined. The results revealed that the composite coating consisted of Ti, Mo, MoS2, TiN and transition layer and the grain size of the sulfides formed on the coating surface were different with treatment temperature. The examination of the cross-sectional hardness of the composite coating revealed that the coating was an ideal tribological surface.
