AbstractHelium effect on loss of uniform elongation after low-temperature neutron irradiation of the V-Ti-Cr-Si-Al-Y alloy was studied. Helium implantation to about 30 atomic ppm was carried out before neutron irradiation to 50 dpa at 406°C. The yield stress of the irradiated specimen with helium pre-implantation was slightly smaller than that of irradiated specimens without helium. The uniform elongation and the increase in yield stress of the irradiated specimens were not affected by helium pre-implantation at ambient temperature. It might be possible that the helium effect appears after lower temperature irradiation such as 300°C or lower, which corresponds to the temperature range where the loss of uniform elongation of the alloy is particularly pronounced.

Volatilization of diesel oil in sand columns was conducted at the ambient temperature of 20 °C by spilling oil on the sand surface. The weight loss of oil was determined by pre and post weight of the sand columns and desiccant was measured on an electronic balance. The aim of this paper was to investigate the effect of moisture content on the volatilization of diesel oil in sand. The results show that the diesel oil and water in sand both volatilize at a linear rate with respect to time. The largest volatilization mass of diesel oil and water reach when the moisture contents are 8% and 20% respectively. Appropriate water content can help to pull the oil contaminants to the surface of the sand.

Effects of different Sr additions (0.1%-1%Sr, mass fraction) on as-cast microstructure and tensile properties both at ambient temperature and elevated temperature of AS31 magnesium alloy were studied. The experimental results show that the addition of Sr could refine the grain size obviously and modify the eutectic Mg2Si from Chinese script shape to polyhedral shape or fine fibers shape. The addition of Sr to AS31 alloy improved the tensile strength at ambient temperature, and the ultimate strength at 150°C first decrease and then increase with the Sr addition increase from 0.1% to 1%Sr.
