ABSTRACTHigh quality, transparent diamond films with relatively large deposition areas have been obtained from oxyacetylene combustion flames at the atmospheric pressure using nozzle tilted at an angle φ) with respect to the Mo substrates. These films are studied using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Raman spectroscopy. Experimental results show that the surface morphology and microstructure depend strongly on the processing parameters such as the gas mixture ratio of acetylene to oxygen, substrate temperature, and the nozzle angle φ. The uniformity of diamond films have been improved using this tilted combustion flame technique and some problems related with this approach are discussed.

Films containing the metals copper, yttrium, calcium, strontium, barium, and bismuth were grown by organometallic chemical vapor deposition (OMCVD). Depositions were carried out at atmospheric pressure in an oxygen-rich environment using metal beta-diketonates and triphenylbismuth. The films were characterized by Auger electron spectroscopy, Nomarski and scanning electron microscopy, and x-ray diffraction. The results show that films containing yttrium consisted of Y2O3 with a small amount of carbidic carbon, those with copper and bismuth were mixtures of oxides with no detectable carbon, and those with calcium, strontium, and barium contained carbonates. Use of a partially fluorinated barium beta-diketonate gave films of BaF2 with small amounts of BaCO3.

Abstrak Nikel merupakan unsur logam yang penggunaannya sudah dikenal dalam industri, terutama pada pelapisan logam dan paduan. Pengolahan nikel dari bijih nikel laterit (jenis Limonit) menggunakan proses hidrometalurgi Atmospheric Pressure Acid Leaching (APAL) yang dinilai lebih ekonomis karena pemakaian energi dan biaya operasional cukup rendah. Media pelarut yang digunakan berupa larutan asam sulfat (H2SO4). Sebelum dilakukan pengolahan, karakterisasi bijih dilakukan menggunakan X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), X-Ray Flourscence (XRF), dan Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Metode penelitian yang dilakukan yaitu literature review. Hasil review dari beberapa artikel jurnal menunjukkan bahwa kadar nikel yang terkandung pada suatu bijih sekitar 1,42%, 2,94 dan 0,95% serta sisanya adalah pengotor. Kondisi operasi yang tepat akan menghasilkan pemurnian nikel yang cukup tinggi. Parameter kondisi operasi yang dapat memengaruhi proses pemisahan nikel diantaranya suhu operasi yang ditunjukan dengan semakin meningkatnya % ekstraksi nikel seiring dengan kenaikan suhu. Selain suhu operasi, konsentrasi pelarut juga salah satu parameter yang mempengaruhi % ekstraksi karena semakin tinggi ion H+ akan memudahkan proses pelarutan sehingga akan mengikat Nikel Oksida yang terdapat pada bijih. Suhu paling optimal untuk menghasilkan nikel dengan kemurnian tinggi dalam operasi pelindian atmosferik adalah 90°C dan konsentrasi asam sulfat 5 M.  Kata Kunci: Nikel, pelindian, suhu, konsentrasi   Abstract  Nickel is a metal element whose use is well known in industry, especially in metal and alloy plating. The processing of nickel from laterite nickel ore (Limonite type) uses a hydrometallurgical process of Atmospheric Pressure Acid Leaching (APAL) which is considered more economical because energy consumption and operational costs are quite low. The solvent medium used is a solution of sulfuric acid (H2SO4). Prior to processing, ore characterization was carried out using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), X-Ray Flourscence (XRF), and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The research method literature review article. The results of reviews from several journal articles show that the nickel content contained in an ore is around 1.42%, 2.94% and 0.95% and the rest is impurity. The right operating conditions will result in relatively high nickel refining. The operating condition parameters that can affect the nickel separation process include the operating temperature which is indicated by the increasing % nickel extraction along with the increase in temperature. In addition to operating temperature, solvent concentration is also one of the parameters that affects the% extraction because the higher the H+ ion will facilitate the dissolving process so that it will bind to the Nickel Oxide contained in the ore. The optimal temperature to produce high-purity nickel in atmospheric leaching operations is 90°C and a sulfuric acid concentration of 5 M. Keywords: Nickel, leaching, temperature, concentration

The Cu-30wt%Ag alloy nanopowders are prepared by induction plasma technology, and the nanopowder is successfully coated by terpineol (C10H18O). The morphology, phase composition and oxidation resistance of nanopowders are characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric (TG) analysis. When the suitable processing parameters of induction plasma are chosen, the spherical morphology and average diameter about 89 nm of Cu-30wt%Ag nanopowders are obtained. Meanwhile, the Cu-Ag alloy nanopowders which are coated by terpineol are free from oxidation when temperature is below 280°C.

Several diamond coatings were performed on -TiAl substrates by a microwave-plasma assisted CVD, which were made directly to the substrate and indirectly to the TiC, Ti5Si3, Al2O3+TiO2 and Si layers on the substrate. The direct coatings suffered from severe delamination and cracks. The deposited layers on TiC and Ti5Si3 layers partially delaminated, while those on Al2O3+TiO2 and Si layers adhered well without delamination. All the diamond films deposited were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. Raman spectra showed that poly- and nano-crystalline diamond films were obtained for the coatings of -TiAl.

SiCp/Al composites were prepared by vacuum hot pressing and sintering method. Optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) is applied to study the diffusion-homogenization process of various elements of powder, and the effect of the diffusion-homogenization temperature and holding time on the SiCp/Al Composites’ microstructure in state of vacuum hot pressing. The results show that the Enrichment of Cu-phase is existed in the composites organization which is in the state of vacuum hot pressing; Al2CuMg fully dissolve into the Al matrix, Cu fully diffused and the diffusion of various elements becomes homogeneous with the temperature increased and time extend. The best processing parameters for the diffusion-homogenization is at 500°Cfor 3h.

One-dimensional GaN nanostructure films were successfully synthesized by the recently developed sputtering post-nitridation technique. The morphology and structure of GaN nanowires are investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results indicate that the crystalline GaN nanostructures have a hexagonal wurtzite structure, and there is not any other phase such as Ga2O3 or Ga in the specimen. It also confirms that high quality crystal was obtained in the resulting sample due to the lattice defects decreased and the crystallinity improved in the process of nitridation at high temperature. The growth mechanism of the GaN nanostructures is briefly discussed.

The ceramic fibers can be obtained from different techniques. Due to the technological development, searches are performed to improve the existing fibers. Thus, recent studies have enabled the development of an unprecedented synthesis route for the production of nanofibers, the Solution Blow Spinning (SBS). In this context, the present work proposes to develop silica nanofibers doped with silver by the SBS method, evaluating parameters such as: silver content and acidification of solutions. The fibers were characterized by X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The results of XRD showed that the samples with 4% silver that were not acidified showed the most defined and intense characteristic peaks. The SEM showed the formation of fibers with diameters in the nanometer range independent of acidification or not of the solutions, with reduction of the agglomerates in the samples with 2% silver.
