The Ostwald ripening process was studied in Fe0.75Ni0.10Al0.15and Fe0.74Ni0.10Al0.15Cr0.01alloys after aging at 750, 850, and 950°C for different times. The microstructural evolution shows a rounded cube morphology (Fe, Ni)Alβ′ precipitates aligned in the ferrite matrix, which changes to elongated plates after prolonged aging. The variation of the equivalent radii of precipitates with time follows the modified Lifshitz-Slyozov-Wagner theory for diffusion-controlled coarsening. Thermo-Calc analysis shows that the chromium content is richer in the matrix than in the precipitates which causes higher hardness and coarsening resistance in the aged Fe0.74Ni0.10Al0.15Cr0.01alloy.

Formulation Variables

The matrix tablets of cinnarizine and nimodipine were prepared with varying ratio of Carbopol- 971P and co-excipients of varying hydrophilicity (i.e. dicalcium phosphate and spray dried lactose) by direct compression and wet granulation using alcoholic mucilage. The prepared tablets were evaluated for weight variation, hardness and friability. The influence of concentration of the matrix forming material and co-excipients on the release rate of the drug was studied. The release rate of Cinnarizine (more soluble drug) from tablets followed diffusion controlled mechanism whereas for nimodipine (less soluble drug), the drug release followed case-II or super case- II transport mechanism based on Korsmeyer- Peppas equation. The results indicated that the drug release from matrix tablets was increases with increase in hydrophilicity of drug and co-excipients. The release of drug also increased with thermal treatment and decreasing polymer concentration.

The microstructural evolution in an Al - Cu - Mg - Ag alloy with trace Zr addition during homogenization treatment was characterized by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy-dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS). It was shown that the low-melting-point phase segregating toward grain boundaries is Al 2 Cu , with a melting point of 523.52°C. A two-step homogenization process was employed to optimize the microstructure of the as-cast alloy, during which the alloy was first homogenized at a lower temperature, then at a higher temperature. After homogenized at 420°C for 6 h, Al 3 Zr particles were finely formed in the matrix. After that, when the alloy was homogenized at an elevated temperature for a longer time, i.e., 515°C for 24 h, most of the precipates at the grain boundaries were removed. Furthermore, the dispersive Al 3 Zr precipitates were retained, without coarsening greatly in the final homogenization step. A kinetics model is employed to predict the optimal homogenization time at a given temperature theoretically, and it confirms the result in present study, which is 420°C/6h+515°C/24h.

Cr Steels

MN and CrMN type nitride precipitates in 12%Cr steels have been investigated using atomic resolution microscopy. The MN type nitrides were observed to transform into CrMN both by composition and crystallography as Cr diffuses from the matrix into the MN precipitates. Thus a change from one precipitate type to another does not necessarily involve nucleation of the new precipitate type followed by dissolution of the old precipitates. By studying the interface between these nitrides and the matrix, it could be observed that the MN and CrMN type precipitates had a few nanometers thick amorphous layer between the crystalline nitride and ferrite matrix. Usually precipitates are described as having (semi) coherent or incoherent interfaces, but in this case it is more energetically favourable to create an amorphous layer instead of the incoherent interface.

From a study of the u. v., visible, near i. r. and e. s. r. spectra induced by γ -irradiation at 77°K in glassy MTHF and in glassy MTHF containing various additives and from a study of controlled temperature increases on these spectra, the following conclusions are drawn. (1) The primary products of the radiolysis are electrons ( e - ) and positive ions ( MTHF + ) which undergo a rapid ion-molecule reaction to give O CH 3 radicals ( R ⋅). (2) e - can either be trapped in the glassy MTHF matrix or can be captured by either napththalene, ferric chloride, carbon tetrachloride, nitrous oxide or trans -stilbene if these substances are present. (3) The e - T are bleachable by light or heat and disappear independently of the radicals R⋅ without either augmentation of R⋅ or the production of any new radical species. (4) e - T and R⋅ disappear thermally and independently by second-order reactions, the rate constants being K e - + e - (M -1 S -1 ) = 10 12⋅4±1⋅1 exp ─ [0⋅85 ± 0⋅10 kcal/mole/ R ( T ─ 75)] and K R˙ + R˙ (M -1 S -1 ) = 10 13⋅3±1⋅4 exp ─ [1⋅20 ± 0⋅15 kcal/mole/ R ( T ─ 75)]. These rate expressions suggest that both reactions are diffusion controlled at low temperatures in the glassy phase. (5) The kinetics of the thermal bleaching of e - T indicate that the electrons migrate distances of about 150 Å from their parent positive ions before being trapped in the matrix. (6) The effect of FeCl 3 in reducing the formation of e - T at 77°K and its lack of effect on the thermal bleaching of e - T suggests that the reaction e - + FeCl 3 → FeCl 2 + Cl - only occurs before the electron is thermalized.

The oriented 0.67Pb (Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.33PbTiO3 (PMNT) polycrystals were prepared by the conventional ceramic technique and the templated grain growth method adding excess PbO in the matrix. Kinetics of the development of oriented structure was investigated systemically. In the presence of PbO liquid phase, the oriented PMNT polycrystals mainly grow by the dissolution-precipitation mechanism. The diffusion is determined by the sintering temperature and the PbO-excess content in the matrix. The thickness of oriented PMNT polycrystals displays a t1/3 dependence, which is characteristic of diffusion-controlled growth. For the thicker oriented structure, 20% excess PbO in the PMNT matrix and 1150oC for 10h are the proper experimental conditions. Moreover, the addition of PbO in the matrix hardly affects the final composition of ceramic matrix.

Abstract WC-Co-Cr powders with different WC particle size have been sprayed by the HVOF process. At constant spraying conditions the powders give coatings of different quality. The deposition efficiency during spraying of powders containing large WC particles was found to be low compared to powders with finer WC grains. In addition the amounts of porosity and cracks were different. The coatings have been characterised by different methods. Erosion and erosion-corrosion tests showed that the WC particle size also influence the wear resistance of the coatings. Small WC particle size was found to be beneficial. Chemical composition of the matrix was also found to be decisive for the coating properties. An increase of the chromium content improved the erosion-corrosion resistance.
