The influence of cooling rates on the solidification and microstructure of rapidly solidified quasicrystal alloy Mg70.8Zn28Nd1.2(at.%) was investigated. The microstructure, phase constitution, phase transition and phase structure of the alloys were examined by means of scanning electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction, energy dispersive spectrometer, differential scanning calorimetry. The experimental results showed that the phase composition of as-cast Mg70.8Zn28Nd1.2 alloy includes quasicrystal I-phase and Mg7Zn3 phase. For the rapidly solidified alloy ribbons, when the speed is not higher than 400 r/min, the microstructure includes I-phase, Mg7Zn3 phase and α-Mg phase. When the speed is at the range of 400-2000r/min, the Mg7Zn3 phase disappears and only quasicrystal with α-Mg phase exist. With the increase of cooling rate, the grain size decreases and there are a large number of microcrystals in the microstructure. When the speed reaches higher than 2500 r/min, amorphous phase appeared. Differential thermal analysis showed that quasicrystal exist at about 340°C.

Ludwigite ore is a typical low-grade boron ore accounting for 58.5% boron resource of China, which is mainly composed of magnetite, lizardite and szaibelyite. During soda-ash roasting of ludwigite ore, the presence of lizardite hinders the selective activation of boron. In this work, lizardite and szaibelyite were prepared and their soda-ash roasting behaviors were investigated using thermogravimetric-differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscope and energy dispersive spectrometer (SEM-EDS) analyses, in order to shed light on the soda-ash activation of boron within ludwigite ore. Thermodynamics of Na2CO3-MgSiO3-Mg2SiO4-Mg2B2O5 via FactSage show that the formation of Na2MgSiO4 was preferential for the reaction between Na2CO3 and MgSiO3/Mg2SiO4. While, regarding the reaction between Na2CO3 and Mg2B2O5, the formation of NaBO2 was foremost. Raising temperature was beneficial for the soda-ash roasting of lizardite and szaibelyite. At a temperature lower than the melting of sodium carbonate (851 °C), the soda-ash roasting of szaibelyite was faster than that of lizardite. Moreover, the melting of sodium carbonate accelerated the reaction between lizardite with sodium carbonate.

This paper has put forward a high-temperature quantitative X-ray powder diffraction analysis method for the determination of an isothermal section of a ternary system in comparison with a conventional method. In a three-phase region of the isothermal section at 1150 °C of Cu2O(CuO)-Al2O3-SiO2 pseudo-ternary system, the compositions of the solid phase points of three system points are determined according to the quantitative analysis of the crystalline phases in the samples carried out by Rietveld method. Then the liquid phase point of the three-phase region is determined according to the crosspoints of the tie lines of every pair of system point and solid phase point. The precisions of the analytical results have reached to be 0.1 ~ 5.0 %. By comparison, a good result is obtained for the determination of the liquid phase point of the three-phase region in the isothermal section at 1150 °C when the analytical results of high-temperature RQA analysis are used in determination of the isothermal section of the pseudo-ternary system.

In the present work, the microstructure evolution of Mg-4Al-2.5Ca alloy during solidification was investigated by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The results showed that the as-cast microstructure was typical dendritic structure, consisting of α-Mg and the Al2Ca with a C15 structure formed at inter-dendritic regions. But during slow solidification, the sequence of phase formation of this alloy consisted of following stages: L→ L + α-Mg → L + α-Mg + (Mg, Al)2Ca → α-Mg + (Mg, Al)2Ca + Al2Ca → α-Mg + Al2Ca. Thermal analysis showed that the (Mg, Al)2Ca and Al2Ca phase separation temperature was about 520°C and 510°C respectively, which is different from thermodynamic calculation. With the temperature decreasing, the liquid (Mg, Al)2Ca phase with thick and continuous morphology transformed into lamellar-shaped eutectic phase, and parts of (Mg, Al)2Ca phase translated into Al2Ca phase with bone-shaped and needle-like.

The super-tough bio-based nylon was prepared by melt extrusion. In order to improve the compatibility between bio-based nylon and elastomer, the elastomer POE was grafted with maleic anhydride. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) were used to study the compatibility and micro-distribution between super-tough bio-based nylon and toughened elastomers. The results of mechanical strength experiments show that the 20% content of POE-g-MAH has the best toughening effect. After toughening, the toughness of the super-tough nylon was significantly improved. The notched impact strength was 88 kJ/m2 increasing by 1700%, which was in line with the industrial super-tough nylon. X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) were used to study the crystallization behavior of bio-based PA56, and the effect of bio-based PA56 with high crystallinity on mechanical properties was analyzed from the microstructure.

ABSTRACTNineteen roman ceramic sherds found near Salobreña (Granada, Spain), in the western coast of the Mediterranean Sea, as well as different ceramic clays from the surroundingsare studied. Both clays and ceramic sherds are characterizad by X-ray diffraction and spectrometry, differential thermal analysis, and scanning electron and optical microscopies. A good number of the ceramic pieces, among which some “Terrae Sigillatae”, have a composition similar to that of the local clays and, thus, have been probably manufactured at Salobreña. Only a few of them have a foreign origin. For most of them, the firing temperature was about 800-850 °C, although some have been produced at 900-1000 °C, and some others at 1000-1100 °C. It is concluded that Salobreña appearsto have been an important settlement just in the third century of the Christian era.

The structural development of nylon6/layered silicate nanocomposite during zone-drawing was studied using X-ray scattering and dynamic mechanical thermal analysis. The γ form, which was favored in the pressed film, was converted into the α form during zone-drawing. The newly developed α form, during zone-drawing, has a better orientation than the existing γ form, thus supporting the claim that the α form crystallizes away from the polymer-silicate inter-phase region during drawing. The degree of orientation of the layered silicate, projected along the TD direction, increases with the increase of the draw ratio, suggesting that the layered silicate has become straighter during zone-drawing, although the layered silicate within the zone-drawn film buckled perpendicular to the draw direction. The β transition of the dynamic mechanical thermal analysis is independent of the crystalline phase, although the α transition is strongly dependent upon the crystalline phase. This can be explained by the free volume that exists in the inter-phase between the γ lamellar and the layered silicate.
