Abstract Detailed analyses of the x-ray scattering intensities of molten nickel-phosphorus alloys ranging from 0 to 30 at.% phosphorus have been carried out. The three partial structures required to characterize the binary alloys have been estimated. The interatomic distance of P -P pairs was found to be about 3.2 Å, and thus phosphorus atoms cannot exist as nearest neighbours in molten Ni-P alloys, at least within the present experimental composition range. It was confirmed that this arrangement of atoms contributed to the characterisic structure in which the expansion of the Ni -Ni distance was unavoidable. Calculations have also been carried out in terms of the dense random-packing model of binary spheres. The calculations were consistent with the experimental results.

Abstract The porous architecture of coatings has a significant influence on the coating performances and thus should be properly designed for the intended applications. For simulating the coating properties, it is necessary to determine the numerical representation of the coating microstructure. In this study, YSZ coatings were manufactured by suspension plasma spray (SPS). Afterwards, the porous architecture of as-prepared coatings was investigated by the combination of three techniques, imaging analysis, Ultra Small Angle X-ray Scattering (USAXS), and X-ray transmission. A microstructural model for reconstructing the porous architecture of the SPS coating was subsequently computed according to the collected experimental results. Finally, the coating thermal properties were simulated based on the model and were compared with the experimental results.

Structure of Zr50Ni50Amorphous Alloy Was Analyzed by Anomalous X-Ray Scattering (AXS) Coupled with Reverse Monte-Carlo (RMC) Simulation. Topological Features in the Nearest Neighbor Atomic Configuration Clearly Suggest that the Strong Chemical Interaction between Ni and Zr Breaks the Icosahedral-Like Local Ordering Structure Common in the Dense Random Packing of Hard Sphere (DRPHS) Model. Nevertheless, the Structure of Zr50Ni50Shows No Further Features Related to the Crystal-Like Chemical Short Range Ordering (CSRO).

Abstract We present the results of neutron and X-ray scattering experiments on liquid tellurium. No dependence on temperature of the radius and the coordination number of the first neighbour shell has been found in the temperature range between 460 °C and 550 °C. We investigate the influence of the truncation of the Fourier transformation on the determined coordination number of nearest neighbours and on the shape of the second coordination maximum at both, the lower and upper integration limit. The structure of liquid tellurium can be described in terms of a chain-like atomic arrangement with two bonds per atom


The effects of covalent bonding on Bragg X -ray scattering in germanium are predicted in terms of the results which have emerged from detailed studies of such effects evident in accurate X -ray data for silicon and diamond. Alternative possibilities consistent with trends found in these lighter systems are considered, and it is shown that one of the possibilities is in accord with a recent observation that | f (222)| = 0⋅14 ± 0⋅01. The predictions of nonspherical scattering in the orthodox data for this system are compared with the X -ray measurements of DeMarco & Weiss to illustrate how the requirements of high accuracy in experimental results rise steeply with increase in atomic number. It is shown that, on the present evidence from the 222 reflexion, the effects of covalent bonding in germanium will produce a peak of approximately 0⋅18 e/Å 3 at the midpoint of each bond. The need for more precise measurements in the future is pointed out.

Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and solid state CPMAS l3C NMR were used to describe the crystalline morphology of a series of bacterially produced poly(β-hydroxybutyrate-co-β-hydroxyvalerate) copolymers containing random distributions of 3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB) and 3-hydroxyvalerate (3HV). Modeling of SAXS results showed that the morphology of this isodimorphic system is better described by two phases, crystalline and amorphous, having defects within each domain. This is in contrast to a model with a large interfacial region between phases. For the 3HV composition range 0–27 mol%, the polymer crystallizes in a poly(β-hydroxybutyrate)-type crystalline lattice. Solid state NMR results showed that there is significant incorporation of the 3HV minor component into the poly(β-hydroxybutyrate) crystalline phase over this composition range. The ratio of the 3HV content in the crystalline phase relative to the overall 3HV content is not linear, but increases with increasing 3HV. For the 21 and 27% 3HV samples, the 3HV content in the crystalline phase is as much as 2/3 of the overall 3HV content. Inclusion of 3HV is correlated to an increase in crystalline disorder (as measured by SAXS), implying that it is easier to accommodate the bulkier 3HV comonomer into a crystalline region that already contains defects. Keywords: bacterial polyesters, poly(3-hydroxyalkanates), small-angle X-ray scattering, solid state NMR, cocrystallization.

“Water-in-salt” electrolytes with excellent electrochemical and physical properties have been extensively investigated. However, the structural understanding of the lithium bis(trifluoromethane sulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) in water is still lacking. Here, we perform synchrotron X-ray scattering to systemically study the structural variation of TFSI anions in an aqueous solution under a variety of concentrations and temperatures. There are two different solvation structures in the solution: TFSI- solvated structure and TFSI- network. As the concentration increases, the TFSI- solvated structure gradually disappears while the TFSI- network gradually forms. Even at relatively low concentrations, the TFSI- network can be observed. Our experimental results show that these two structures can coexist at a particular concentration, and temperature changes will lead to one structure’s formation or disappearance. Also, the TFSI- network is the key to obtain a stable electrochemical window under relatively high temperatures.
