Viscosity Changes

This article presents changes in the viscosity of olive oil during compression. The test was carried out indirectly by measuring the dependence of the resonance frequency of the piezoelectric immersed in olive oil on pressure. For this purpose, for successive pressures, the resonance curves were read and the values of the characteristic frequencies were determined. Viscosity changes were analysed and related to the compression and crystallization taking place in the tested substance. During this research, a phase transition from the liquid phase to the alpha crystalline phase was detected, during which the resonant frequency of the tested piezoelectric reached a minimum and the viscosity related to this frequency reached a maximum. The measurement method developed in this paper can be used to detect the phase transitions of oils subjected to pressure. This may find application in the oil production and high-pressure food preservation industries for which this knowledge is essential for the safe and trouble-free use of their machines.

AbstractThe main purpose of the experiment was a thermodynamic research with use of the electric methods chosen. The substance examined was olive oil. The paper presents the resistance, capacitive reactance, relative permittivity and resistivity of olive. Compression was applied with two mean velocities up to 450 MPa. The results were shown as functions of pressure and time and depicted on the impedance phase diagram. The three first order phase transitions have been detected. All the changes in material parameters were observed during phase transitions. The material parameters measured turned out to be the much more sensitive long-time phase transition factors than temperature. The values of material parameters and their dependence on pressure and time were compared with the molecular structure, arrangement of molecules and interactions between them. Knowledge about olive oil parameters change with pressure and its phase transitions is very important for olive oil production and conservation.

We investigated the protein-mediated phospholipid transfer between small vesicles by fluorescence polarization measurements with diphenylhexatriene as optical probe. Thermotropic-phase-transition curves were taken after mixing two vesicle preparations of lipids exhibiting different gel-to-liquid phase transitions. From the heights of each phase-transition step we were able to follow the lipid transfer process without separating the two vesicle preparations.

Water distributes ubiquitously among the solar system and outer space in a wide variety of solid forms, i.e. more than ten kinds of crystalline ice, two types of amorphous ice, and clathrate hydrates. These polymorphs often play crucial roles in the planetary geology. Diversity of the stable ices and hydrates also suggests the existence of the various kinds of stable and metastable phases yet to be discovered [1]. Computer simulations and the theoretical treatments are useful to explore them. In this talk, we introduce the phase transitions of ice VII, which is one of the highest-pressure ice phases. The melting curve of ice VII to high-pressure liquid water has not been settled by experiments. We have proposed the intervention of a plastic phase of ice (plastic ice) between ice VII and liquid water, based on molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and the free energy calculations [2], which enables to account for large gaps among the various experimental curves of ice VII. In plastic ice, the water molecules are fixed at the lattice points, while they rotate freely. Interestingly, our additional survey by large-scale MD simulations elucidates that the phase transition between ice VII and plastic ice is first-order at low pressure as it was already predicted, while it is found to be second-order at higher pressures, where a tricritical point joins these phase boundaries together [3]. The critical fluctuations may give a clue for determining the phase boundary experimentally. We also argue about the phase transition dynamics of liquid water to ice VII at their direct phase boundary where metastable plastic ice phase plays an important role.

AbstractFirst-principles simulations and high-pressure experiments were used to study the stability of BaCO3 carbonates at high pressures. Witherite, which is orthorhombic and isotypic with CaCO3 aragonite, is stable at ambient conditions. As pressure increases, BaCO3 transforms from witherite to an orthorhombic post-aragonite structure at 8 GPa. The calculated bulk modulus of the post-aragonite structure is 60.7 GPa, which is slightly less than that from experiments. This structure shows an axial anisotropicc ompressibility and the a axis intersects with the c axis at 70 GPa, which implies that the pressure-induced phase transition reported in previous experimental study is misidentified. Although a pyroxene-like structure is stable in Mg- and Ca-carbonates at pressures >100 GPa, our simulations showed that this structure does not appear in BaCO3.

Through the measurement of Hugoniot parameters, we can get useful information about high-pressure phase transitions, equations of state (EOS), etc. of solids, without pressure calibration. And, we can discuss the transition dynamics, because the relaxation times of phase transition and compression process are of the same order. We have performed the Hugoniot-measurement experiments on various kinds of compound materials including oxides, nitrides, borides and chalcogenides by using a high time-resolution streak photographic system combined with the propellant guns. The structure-phase transitions have been observed for several kinds of inorganic materials, TiO2, ZrO2, Gd3Ga5O12, AlN, ZnS, ZnSe, etc. The phase transition pressures under shock and static compressions of metals, ionic materials, semiconductors and some ceramics are consistent with each other. Those are not consistent for strong covalent bonding materials such as C, BN and SiO2. Here, the Hugoniot compression data are reviewed, and the shock-induced phase transitions and the dynamics are discussed, as well as the EOS of the high-pressure phase up to evem 1 TPa.

Abstract In recent years, investigations of the phase transition behavior of semiconducting nanoparticles under high pressure has attracted increasing attention due to their potential applications in sensors, electronics, and optics. However, current understanding of how the size of nanoparticles influences this pressure-dependent property is somewhat lacking. In particular, phase behaviors of semiconducting CdS nanoparticles under high pressure have not been extensively reported. Therefore, in this work, CdS nanoparticles of different sizes are used as a model system to investigate particle size effects on high-pressure-induced phase transition behaviors. In particular, 7.5, 10.6, and 39.7 nm spherical CdS nanoparticles are synthesized and subjected to controlled high pressures up to 15 GPa in a diamond anvil cell. Analysis of all three nanoparticles using in-situ synchrotron wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) data shows that phase transitions from wurtzite to rocksalt occur at higher pressures than for bulk material. Bulk modulus calculations not only show that the wurtzite CdS nanomaterial is more compressible than rocksalt, but also that the compressibility of CdS nanoparticles depends on their particle size. Furthermore, sintering of spherical nanoparticles into nanorods was observed for the 7.5 nm CdS nanoparticles. Our results provide new insights into the fundamental properties of nanoparticles under high pressure that will inform designs of new nanomaterial structures for emerging applications.

Rocksalt Phase

We performed the first-principle calculation to study the structures of cinnabar phase and the Cinnabar-to-rocksalt Phase transitions of HgTe and CdTe under high pressure. The calculated results show that for HgTe, the zincblende-to-cinnabar phase transition is under 2.2GPa, and the cinnabar-to-rocksalt phase transition is under 5.5 GPa; For CdTe, the two phase transitions occur under 4.0 GPa and 4.9 GPa, respectively, which well agree with the experimental results. The cinnabar-to-rocksalt phase transitions of most compounds, including HgTe and CdTe, except HgS are of first-order, and it is due to that their cinnabar phases are not chain structure as HgS and there are no relaxation process before the phase transition.
