The investigation data of the formation peculiarities of oxide films on the Ti6A14V alloy in tartaric acid solutions have been given. It is shown that the behavior of alloy forming dependences is conditioned by the anode current density. At ja < 0.5 A∙dm-2 the continuous oxide film is not formed on the alloy surface and the preset value of the final voltage on the cell is not reached. With an increase in ja > 0.5 A∙dm-2, alloy forming dependences show a linear behavior that is indicative of the formation of low porous films. In these conditions, the oxide film formation rate is in direct proportion to the value of ja. The electrochemical oxidation of Ti6A14V alloy in tartaric acid solutions results in the formation of interference-colored oxide films. The oxide film ultimate thickness and color are defined by the preset voltage and are independent of the current density and electrolyte concentration. The isolating properties of obtained films were studied by the way of the cathode polarization of oxidized specimens in the sulfate copper-plating electrolyte. The research done allows us to make a conclusion that electrochemical copper deposition is a convenient tool for the detection of defective spots in oxide films. It is shown that due to the specific features of the reduction kinetics of Cu2+ ions on the oxidized titanium it is reasonable to use for the studies the initial sections of polarization dependences that correspond to ΔE = 0.2–0.25 V. The alloy polarization dependences allow us to establish unavailability of apparent dependences between the oxidation current density, the electrolyte concentration, the cell final voltage value and the polarization that occurs during the Cu2+ ion reduction. The anodic connection of copper-coated specimens conditions the reversible dissolution of a greater portion of the specks of copper deposits. It is indicative of the electron conduction of film defects. The obtained data allow us to vary the electrolysis parameters in a wide range with no significant influence of the treatment mode of Ti6A14V alloy on the quality of oxide coatings.

The research data on the specific features of the formation of oxide films on the Ti6Al4V alloy in the ethylene glycol-water electrolytes have been given. The kinetic dependences obtained for the alloy allowed us to establish that the specific features of the formation of oxide films during the electrochemical oxidation of the alloy surface depend on the solution composition and the current density. For the water-to-alcohol ratio of 50:50 the kinetic dependences show the sections that correspond to the formation of the barrier oxide layer and also to the formation of the pores due to the desorption of fluoride ions and the growth of the porous portion of oxide. As the water-to- alcohol ratio is decreased the indicated peculiarities of kinetic dependences are met not so often and do not obey any regularity. The obtained data are explained by the fact that an increase in the portion of the organic component of the solution results in a decreased etching capacity of the electrolyte due to the controlled activity of fluoride ions. The anode current density value has a similar effect on the variation of kinetic dependences. Its effect is explained by that an increase in the alloy oxidation rate results in the fast formation of the surface oxide and the specific features of kinetic curves are concealed. The linear relationship between the formation time of oxide of a minimum thickness for given conditions and the current density is unavailable and it is conditioned by the chemical interaction of the oxide film with electrolyte components. The obtained research data can be used for the formation of the individual bioinert and bioactive coatings for the implants of a medical purpose or for the formation of the matrix used for the production of composite coatings.

It is very difficult to obtain mechanical properties of oxide films formed on a material in high temperature environments despite its importance of estimating material degradation caused by such as thermal stress. Corrosion/oxidation tests were conducted for pure titanium and titanium alloy in high temperature corrosive environments of wet air and water vapor with hydrogen chloride at temperatures from 673 K to 973 K to look into basic behavior of degradation and the growth of titanium oxide films. It was found that oxide films were usually formed on the specimen surface and the growth was accelerated by the corrosiveness of the environment. In order to examine mechanical properties and exfoliation of corrosion products or oxide films formed on titanium and its alloy, tests of single particle impact on the specimen surface with a glass bead were performed in high temperature corrosive environments. The piling-up surfaces around impact craters were formed and plastically strained. The oxide film formed on the metal surface was detached in a wide range of the circumference and fractured a little far from the rim of the crater. Then fracture and exfoliation stress of the oxide film were estimated by the calculation of impact energy and fractured and detached areas. It was found that both the fracture and exfoliation stress of the oxide films were different depending on the corrosive environment and chemical composition of titanium alloy.

We have studied porous anodic alumina template through the second anodic oxidation of preparation. Observing the morphology of nanoscale AAO template using scanning electron microscope (SEM), the results indicate that the pores are orderly paralleled arranged with uniform pore diameter, perpendicular to the template surface. A detailed study of the influence of different oxidation conditions, such as different type of electrolyte, concentration, voltage and temperature on the template of alumina and its electrochemical mechanism were performed. By changing the oxidation voltage, electrolyte type, concentration, pore diameter and template thickness can be altered in a wide range such that we can obtain the desired aspect ratio. <br>

Galvanostatic anodization of lead in borate solutions reveals that lead can form a barrier type oxide film. The rate of growth, R, fulfils the empirical relation, R = aib within the current density i range from 1.16 .10-4 to 3.19 .10-4 A cm-2. The magnitudes of the parameters a and b are 6.9 . 103 and 1.6, respectively, it has been found that the high field approximation is applicable for the oxide growth on lead. The coefficients of the dependence of R on solution temperature, T, pH and borate ion concentration, c, viz. (∂R/∂T), (∂R/∂pH) and (∂R/∂log c) are -18 . 10-4, -0.13 and 0.41, respectively.

AbstractThis paper outlines the science case for line-intensity mapping with a space-borne instrument targeting the sub-millimeter (microwaves) to the far-infrared (FIR) wavelength range. Our goal is to observe and characterize the large-scale structure in the Universe from present times to the high redshift Epoch of Reionization. This is essential to constrain the cosmology of our Universe and form a better understanding of various mechanisms that drive galaxy formation and evolution. The proposed frequency range would make it possible to probe important metal cooling lines such as [CII] up to very high redshift as well as a large number of rotational lines of the CO molecule. These can be used to trace molecular gas and dust evolution and constrain the buildup in both the cosmic star formation rate density and the cosmic infrared background (CIB). Moreover, surveys at the highest frequencies will detect FIR lines which are used as diagnostics of galaxies and AGN. Tomography of these lines over a wide redshift range will enable invaluable measurements of the cosmic expansion history at epochs inaccessible to other methods, competitive constraints on the parameters of the standard model of cosmology, and numerous tests of dark matter, dark energy, modified gravity and inflation. To reach these goals, large-scale structure must be mapped over a wide range in frequency to trace its time evolution and the surveyed area needs to be very large to beat cosmic variance. Only a space-borne mission can properly meet these requirements.

ABSTRACT We present p-gadget3-k, an updated version of gadget-3, that incorporates the chemistry package krome. p-gadget3-k follows the hydrodynamical and chemical evolution of cosmic structures, incorporating the chemistry and cooling of H2 and metal cooling in non-equilibrium. We performed different runs of the same ICs to assess the impact of various physical parameters and prescriptions, namely gas metallicity, molecular hydrogen formation on dust, star formation recipes including or not H2 dependence, and the effects of numerical resolution. We find that the characteristics of the simulated systems, both globally and at kpc-scales, are in good agreement with several observable properties of molecular gas in star-forming galaxies. The surface density profiles of star formation rate (SFR) and H2 are found to vary with the clumping factor and resolution. In agreement with previous results, the chemical enrichment of the gas component is found to be a key ingredient to model the formation and distribution of H2 as a function of gas density and temperature. A star formation algorithm that takes into account the H2 fraction together with a treatment for the local stellar radiation field improves the agreement with observed H2 abundances over a wide range of gas densities and with the molecular Kennicutt–Schmidt law, implying a more realistic modelling of the star formation process.

Bioactive calcium phosphate coatings were deposited on carbon/carbon(C/C) composites using electrochemical deposition technique. The effects of electrolyte concentration and constant current density on morphology, structure and composition of the coating were systematically investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transformed infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The results show that, the coating weight elevated gradually with the increase of electrolyte concentration, and the morphology of coatings changed from spherical particles to nanolamellar crystals with interlocking structure initially. Then the coating transformed into seaweed-like and nano/micro-sized crystals along the depth direction of the coating. The coatings showed seaweed-like morphology as the deposition current density was less than 20mA. With the less current density, the coating became more homogenous. However, the coating was fiakiness crysal, with needlike crystal stacked upside as the current density reached to 20mA/cm2. The coating weight was improved gradually when the current density increased from 2.5mA/cm2 to 10mA/cm2, then reduced with the increasing current density in the range of 10 to 20mA/cm2.
