In this study, Nd and As are mainly sealed into industrial pure Fe cylinders. The effect of different temperatures on the high-temperature interaction of an Nd–Fe–As ternary system is studied via X-ray diffraction, optical microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy after heat insulation for 30 h at 1173, 1223, and 1273 K. The results show that the common products under high-temperature interaction are NdAs, Fe17Nd2, and Fe. Fe12As5 is present at 1173 K, whereas Fe2As is produced at 1223 and 1273 K. The diffusion ability of Nd is weaker than that of As. Nd mainly diffuses through the Fe atomic vacancy mechanism. As mainly binds to Fe to form Fe and As compounds.

ABSTRACTMany of the high temperature superconductor phases degrade rapidly when in the presence of water, acids, carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide. In order to foster more rapid developments in the area of high-Tc research, it will be necessary to acquire a more complete understanding of the surface chemistry of these superconducting materials. In this paper, the relative reactivity of the common cuprate phases toward water is reported. X-ray powder diffraction and scanning electron microscopy measurements are utilized here to establish the reactivity trends.

The low temperature pressureless sintering of a nanosized Si3N4 powder with doped sintering additives was investigated. The microstructural evolution during sintering at different temperatures was analyzed using x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The effect of using nanosized Si3N4 powder as a catalyst to accelerate the α→β–Si3N4 transformation of a commercial Si3N4 powder with larger particle sizes was also investigated. Finally, two stage sintering was used to study the feasibility of controlling the microstructure and the mechanical properties of the nanosized silicon nitride.

The aim of this work was to study the influence of quenching and partitioning temperatures combined with various levels of Mn and Ni contents on the austenite stabilization along the quenching and partitioning (Q&P) cycle. Three steels with 2 wt.%, 4 wt.% and 6 wt.% manganese and one steel with 2 wt.% nickel content were investigated. Phase transformation temperatures and critical cooling rates were obtained experimentally using dilatometer for each alloy. Q&P cycles with different quenching and partitioning temperatures were also done in dilatometer, thus, allowing monitoring of the expansion/contraction during the whole Q&P cycle. Microstructure characterization was performed by means of a Scanning Electron Microscope and X-Ray Diffraction to measure retained austenite content. It was found that, strongly depending on the Q&P conditions, austenite stabilization or decomposition occurs during partitioning and final cooling. In case of high partitioning temperature cycles, austenite reverse transformation was observed. Certain cycles resulted in a very effective austenite stabilization and interesting microstructure.

The experimatal alloys were aged at different temperatures of 180°C, 200°C, 220°C, and 240º C with calcium addition levels of (X=0.5, 1, 1.5, 2%) on Mg-6Al-1Zn-XCa alloy were investigated in 3.5% NaCl solution. All the experimatal alloys were immersed in 3.5% NaCl solutions and the resulted surface were analyzed to study the corrosion behaviour and its surface topography by optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersed spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. The result shows that corrosion attack occurred predominantly on ß phase and α phase exhibit relatively minor corrosion. In addition to that the increased aging temperature coarsens the intermetallic as well as α- Mg grains, which shows adverse effect to corrosion resistances and the best result were obtained at composition of 0.5wt.% Ca aged at 200°C.

The corrosion characteristics of Inconel 600 were investigated at 650∘C in air and 76%[Formula: see text]%[Formula: see text]%[Formula: see text]%SO2 gas environment up to 500[Formula: see text]h. Specimens exposed to each condition were characterized by weight gain, scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The oxide structure consisting of the thin Cr2O3 layer and Cr2O3 nodules was observed, which increased the weight gain of specimens. In the SO2-bearing gas, it showed a bigger weight gain due to the coarsening of Cr2O3 nodules. Therefore, it was suggested that the sulfur-accelerated coarsening of Cr2O3 nodules at the high temperature.

We present a cost- and time-efficient method for the controlled preparation of single phase La(IO3)3 nanoparticles via a simple soft-chemical route, which takes a matter of hours, thereby providing an alternative to the common hydrothermal method, which takes days. Nanoparticles of pure α-La(IO3)3 and pure δ-La(IO3)3 were synthesised via the new method depending on the source of iodate ions, thereby demonstrating the versatility of the synthesis route. The crystal structure, nanoparticle size-dispersal, and chemical composition were characterised via angle- and energy-dispersive powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy.

The steel substrate was coated by Fe-based composite using self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) reaction of reactant coating paste. The green paste was prepared by mixing precursor powders of Al, Fe2O3and Al2O3. It was coated on the steel substrate before igniting by oxy-acetylene flame. The effect of coating paste thickness and the additives on the resulted Fe-based composite coating was studied. The composite coating was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) couple with dispersive X-ray (EDS).

A porous titania (TiO2) coating with vermiform slots was prepared on the Ti substrate through micro-arc oxidation (MAO) treatment using sodium tetraborate as electrolyte. Morphologies and phase structure were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively. Results show that the rutile phase increases and anatase decreases gradually with increasing MAO time. The electrolyte of sodium tetraborate has significant influence on the formation of vermiform coatings, which determine the corrosive patterning in the first stage during MAO processing. The evolution of vermiform morphology is proposed as followed: some corrosive pores appear on the surface before arcing; afterward, the adjacent micropores in the dense regions link each other due to the high temperature result from continuous arc action; then, the micropores grow up to big pits and combine with each other with increasing MAO treating time; finally, the vermiform morphology forms on the surface of Ti metal.

A novel stencil-printable silver-copper (Ag-Cu) nanopaste that serves as an alternative high temperature die attach material was introduced in this study. The nanopaste was made by mixing 50 nm-sized of Ag and Cu particles with an organic binder system. Sintering temperatures, up to 450°C, were used to sinter nanopaste in air and its post sintered properties were investigated. The viscosity of nanopaste was 350,000 cps and it demonstrated a shear thinning behavior. Scanning electron microscope revealed the change of grain structure with the change in the sintering temperature. Formations of Ag97Cu3 and Ag1Cu99 compounds after sintering were confirmed with X-ray diffraction; and the electrical conductivity of the sintered nanopaste was increased with the increase of the sintering temperature. The study concluded 380°C was the optimum sintering temperature to form a well sintered nanopaste.

Biomorphic TiO2 was prepared by high temperature pyrolysis and a modified sol-gel route. The morphology and microstructure of TiO2 samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy. The phase composition of the resulting sample was analyzed by X-ray diffraction. The results suggest that the biomorphic TiO2 mainly consists of rutile TiO2, and replicates the shape and part microstructure of the carbon template.
