The crystallization and phase transformation of amorphous Si3N4 ceramics under high pressure (1.0–5.0 GPa) between 800 and 1700 °C were investigated. A greatly enhanced crystallization and α–β transformation of the amorphous Si3N4 ceramics were evident under the high pressure, as characterized by that, at 5.0 GPa, the amorphous Si3N4 began to crystallize at a temperature as low as 1000 °C (to transform to a modification). The subsequent a–b transformation occurred completed between 1350 and 1420 °C after only 20 min of pressing at 5.0 GPa. In contrast, under 0.1 MPa N2, the identical amorphous materials were stable up to 1400 °C without detectable crystallization, and only a small amount of a phase was detected at 1500 °C. The crystallization temperature and the a–b transformation temperatures are reduced by 200–350 °C compared to that at normal pressure. The enhanced phase transformations of the amorphous Si3N4 were discussed on the basis of thermodynamic and kinetic consideration of the effects of pressure on nucleation and growth.

The tendency of graphite-diamond transformation assisted by nonmetallic catalysts of carbonates, sulfates, or phosphorus under high pressure and high temperature has been investigated by calculating the activation energy and transformation probability of the carbon atoms over a potential barrier. It was found that the activation energy is highly sensitive to the catalyst chosen. The value of activation energy in the systems of graphite-carbonates, graphite-phosphorus, and graphite-sulfate are 130.71 × 103, 206.03 × 103, and 221 × 103 J/mol, respectively. If fd stands for the probability of the transformation from graphite to diamond, the probability sequence of graphite-diamond transformation in different systems was put forward: fd(gr.-carbonate) > fd(gr.-phosphorus). fd(gr.-sulfate).

High-pressure torsion (HPT) was conducted under 6.0 GPa on commercial purity titanium up to 10 turns. An ultrafine-grained (UFG) pure Ti with an average grain size of ~96 nm was obtained. The thermal properties of these samples were studied by using differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) which allowed the quantitative determination of the evolution of stored energy, the recrystallization temperatures, the activation energy involved in the recrystallization of the material and the evolution of the recrystallized fraction with temperature. The results show that the stored energy increases, beyond which the stored energy seems to level off to a saturated value with increase of HPT up to 5 turns. An average activation energy of about 101 kJ/mol for the recrystallization of 5 turns samples was determined. Also, the thermal stability of the grains of the 5 turns samples with subsequent heat treatments were investigated by microstructural analysis and Vickers microhardness measurements. It is shown that the average grain size remains below 246 nm when the annealing temperature is below 500 °C, and the size of the grains increases significantly for samples at the annealing temperature of 600 °C.

The melt intercalation method was employed to prepare poly(butylene terepathalate)/montmorillonite nanocomposites, and their microstructure was characterized by wide angle X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. The XRD results showed that the crystalline plane such as (010), (111), (100) was smaller than that of pristine PBT, which indicates that the crystallite size of PBT in the nanocomposites could be diminished by adding clay. Moreover, the isothermal crystallization kinetics of PBT and PBT/MMT nanocomposites was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). During isothermal crystallization, the development of crystallinity with time was analysed by the Avrami equation. The results show that very small amounts of clay dramatically increased the rate of crystallization and high clay concentrations reduced the rate of crystallization at the low crystallization temperatures. At low concentrations of clay, the distance between dispersed platelets was large so it was relatively easy for the additional nucleation sites to incorporate surrounding polymer, and the crystal nucleus was formatted easily. However, at high concentrations of clay, the diffusion of polymer chains to the growing crystallites was hindered by large clay particles, despite the formation of additional nucleation sites by the clay layers. At the higher crystallization temperature, the crystallization of the nanocomposites was slower than that of the pure PBT under the experimental conditions, which means that with the increase in chains mobility at the high crystallization temperature, the crystal nuclei are harder to format, and the hindering effect of clay particles on the polymer chains was stronger than the nucleating effect of the layers. In addition, the activation energies of crystallization for PBT and its nanocomposites were calculated by the Arrhenius relationship, and the results showed that the nanocomposites with a low clay content had the lower activation energy values than PBT, while high amounts of clay increased the activation energy of PBT.

The crystallization activation energy (Δ E) of a polymer comprises the nucleation activation energy Δ F and the transport activation energy Δ E*. In this paper, the Δ E of poly (L-lactic acid) (PLLA) nucleated with nucleating agent p- tert-butylcalix[8]arene (tBC8) was calculated. The results showed that the Δ E of nucleated PLLA was 165.97 kJ/mol, which is higher than that of pure PLLA. The reason why Δ E of PLLA increased when incorporating nucleating agent was studied. The increment of glass transition temperature ( Tg) for nucleated PLLA revealed that the polymer chain mobility was restricted by tBC8, which was considered as the reason for the increase of Δ E*. Further, polyethylene glycol (PEG) was added to improve the chain mobility, thus eliminated the variation of the transport activation energy Δ E* caused by tBC8. Then the effect of the increment of crystallization temperature range on the increase of Δ F was also taken into consideration. It was concluded that both decreasing the mobility of chain segments and increasing the crystallization temperature range caused an increase of Δ E for PLLA/tBC8.

Abstract The kinetics of the alkaline rearrangement of O,O-dimethyl-(2,2,2-trichloro-1- hydroxyethyl)phosphonate, (trichlorfon, 1), the active insecticidal component in such formulations as Dylox, was followed at 25±0.5°C by high pressure liquid chromatography (UV-vis detector, 210 nm). The rearrangement product, O,Odimethyl- O-(2,2-dichloroethenyl)phosphate (dichlorovos, 2), which is a more potent biocide than trichlorfon, undergoes further reaction, and the kinetics, consequently, cannot be treated by a standard pseudo-first-order plot. A two-point van't Hoff (initial rates) method was used to obtain pseudo-first-order rate constants (kѱ) at 25, 35 and 45°C: 2.6 × 10-6, 7.4 × 10-6 and 2.5 × 10-5 s-1, respectively. Arrhenius treatment of this data gave an activation energy (Ea) of 88 kJ·mol-1 with a pre-exponential factor (A) of 5.5 × 109 s-1. Kinetic trials at pH 8.0 using phosphate and tris buffer systems show no buffer catalysis in this reaction and indicate that the rearrangement is subject to specific base catalysis. Estimates are reported for pseudo-first-order half-lives for trichlorfon at pH 8.0 for environmental conditions in aqueous systems in the Corner Brook region of western Newfoundland, part of the site of a recent trichlorfon aerial spray program.

AbstractThe rates of resorption of pyrope in basaltic melt and of pyrope decomposition to pyroxene + melt at pressures below the stability of garnet are used to examine the proposition (Chapman, 1976) that pyrope megacrysts in the Elie Ness neck began ascent from the mantle at 1300–1450°C. Both reactions are extremely rapid at these temperatures and yet the petrographic evidence is that neither occurred. Either the transporting magma cooled extremely rapidly during ascent (> 30000 °/h) or, more likely, was considerably cooler than previously proposed. Water was a significant constituent of the magma, and a crystallization temperature for the garnet of as little as 1000 °C is possible, based on existing phase–equilibria data.

ABSTRACTThe composition dependence of crystallization of amorphous Co-Si alloys has been investigated. Crystallization temperature decreased slowly from 400°C for a Co0.42Si0.58 alloy to 300°C for a CO0.2Si0.8 alloy. However, abrupt decrease in the crystallization temperature was observed for alloys with the monosilicide and disilicide compositions. The crystallization of alloys compositionally close to the disilicide was a one-step process with an activation energy of about 1.3 eV. The heat release and the volume contraction during crystallization of the stoichiometric Co0.33Si0.67 alloy were measured to be 0.118 eV/atom and 0.6%, respectively. In the case of the CO0.2Si0.8 alloy, complete crystallization was achieved in two steps with an activation energy of 2.1 eV for the primary crystallization.
