In this paper, negative thermal expansion coefficient eucryptite powders were prepared by sol-gel method using silica-sol as starting material. The raw blocks were obtained by dry pressing process after the powder was synthesized, and then the raw blocks were heat-treated at 600º, 1150º, 1280º, 1380º, 1420º and 1450°C, respectively. Variations of density, porosity and thermal expansion coefficient at different heat treatment temperatures were investigated. Phase transformation and fracture surface morphology of eucryptite heat-treated at different temperatures, respectively, were observed by XRD and SEM. The results indicate that, with the increasing heat- treatment temperature, the grain size and the bending strength increased, porosity decreased, thermal expansion coefficient decreased continuously. Negative thermal expansion coefficient of -5.3162×10-6~-7.4413×10-6 (0~800°C) was obtained. But when the heat-treatment temperature was more than 1420°C, porosity began to increase, bending strength began to decrease, which were the symbols of over-burning, while the main crystal phase didn’t change.

Geometrical Effect

The thermal expansion of a ceramic material in general leads to a positive thermal expansion coefficient (α). In the last decennium, several families of materials which exhibit negative thermal expansion, arising from a specific geometrical effect in their so-called open framework structures, have been discovered. Usually, this negative thermal expansion coefficient is small, anisotropic and the phenomena occur in a very small temperature interval. ZrW2O8 is an exception because of its large and isotropic negative thermal expansion coefficient (NTE) in a temperature range from 0.5K to 1050K. A cubic symmetry is found over the entire stability range with a phase transition from α-ZrW2O8 to β-ZrW2O8 near 430K. This phase transition is noticed by a change in α. The aqueous citrate-gel method is a suitable synthesis route for negative thermal expansion ceramics and will give a fine, pure and homogenous oxide mixture, well suitable for the preparation of ZrW2O8. The expansion coefficient of α–ZrW2O8 is -11 μm/m K whereas for the β- ZrW2O8 a value of -3 is obtained.

Dip Coating Technique

CuO/SiO2 nanocomposite films were prepared by sol-gel process combined with the dip-coating technique. The mean diameter of CuO nanoparticles formed during the heat treatment process and mainly lay in the pores of mesoporous SiO2 matrix increased by increasing the heat treatment temperature. Consequently, compared with mesoporous SiO2 matrix, the pore volume and specific surface area of prepared samples descend. The diffraction peaks of Cu and CuO and the crystalline diffraction ring of CuO with body centered cubic structure can be clearly observed after heat-treated in air and H2 at 800 oC for 1h. By increasing the heat treatment temperature and concentration of CuO, a slightly red-shift could be observed.

This work reports on the preparation of materials based on Yb3+/Er3+ co-doped SiO2-Gd2O3 via sol-gel process. The 0.4mol%of Er3+ ions was fixed and the amount of Yb3+ ions changed as 1.8, 5 and 9mol%in order to evaluate the photoluminescence properties as a function of the Yb3+ ions concentration. The prepared xerogels were heat-treated at 900, 1000 and 1100?C for 8 h. X-ray diffraction analyses of the heat-treated materials confirmed the formation of the Gd2O3 cubic phase embedded in the SiO2 host, demonstrating the effective incorporation of RE3+ ions in the structure. The Scherrer?s equation verified that the sizes of Gd2O3 nanocrystallite are between 31 and 69 nm and directly dependent on the heat-treatment temperature. Under excitation at 980 nm all materials showed upconversion phenomena, and the intensities of the emissions in the green and red regions showed to be directly dependent on power pump of laser, quantity of Yb3+ ions and heat-treatment temperature. The materials also showed emission in the infrared region with the maximum around 1530 nm, assigned to the transition of 4I13/2 ? 4I15/2 of the Er3+ ions, region known as technological C-telecom band used in optical amplification.

The influence of heat treatment on the physico-mechanical properties, water resistance, and creep behavior of moso bamboo (Phyllostachys pubescens) was determined in this study. The results revealed that the density, moisture content, and flexural properties showed negative relationships with the heat treatment temperature, while an improvement in the dimensional stability (anti-swelling efficiency and anti-water absorption efficiency) of heat-treated samples was observed during water absorption tests. Additionally, the creep master curves of the untreated and heat-treated samples were successfully constructed using the stepped isostress method (SSM) at a series of elevated stresses. Furthermore, the SSM-predicted creep compliance curves fit well with the 90-day full-scale experimental data. When the heat treatment temperature increased to 180 °C, the degradation ratio of the creep resistance (rd) significantly increased over all periods. However, the rd of the tested bamboo decreased as the heat treatment temperature increased up to 220 °C.

Powder metallurgical TiAl alloy was fabricated by gas atomization powders, and the effect of heat treatment temperature on the microstructure evolution and room tensile properties of PM TiAl alloy was investigated. The uniform fine duplex microstructure was formed in PM TiAl based alloy after being heat treated at 1250/2h followed by furnace cooling (FC)+ 900/6h (FC). When the first step heat treatment temperature was improved to 1360/1h, the near lamellar microstructure was achieved. The ductility of the alloy after heat treatment improved markedly to 1.2% and 0.6%, but the tensile strength decreased to 570MPa and 600MPa compared to 655MPa of as-HIP TiAl alloy. Post heat treatment at the higher temperature in the alpha plus gamma field would regenerate thermally induced porosity (TIP).

The effect of heat treatment temperature from 1173 K to 1373 K for 3.6 ks on mechanical and superelastic properties of an Ni-free Au-51Ti-18Co alloy (mol%) was investigated. The stress for inducing martensitic transformation (SIMT) and the critical stress for slip deformation (CSS) slightly decrease with increasing the heat–treatment temperature. Regardless of heat–treatment temperature, good superelasticity was definitely recognized with the maximum shape recovery ratio up to 95 % and 4 % superelastic shape recovery strain. As the mentioned reasons, the Au-51Ti-18Co alloy is promising for practical biomedical applications.

In this research, heat treatment is the final finishing process applied on nanocrystalline CoNiFe to improve microstructure for good hardness property. Nanocrystalline CoNiFe has been synthesized using the electrodeposition method. This study investigated the effect of heat treatment at 500°C, 600°C, 700°C and 800°C on electrodeposited nanocrystalline CoNiFe. The heat treatment process was performed in the tube furnace with flowing Argon gas. By changing the heat treatment temperature, physical properties such as phase and crystallographic structure, surface morphology, grain size and hardness of nanocrystalline CoNiFe was studied. The nanocrystalline CoNiFe phase revealed the Face Centered Cubic (FCC) and Body Centered Cubic (BCC) crystal structure. FESEM micrographs showed that the grain sizes of the coatings were in the range of 78.76 nm to 132 nm. Dendrite shape was found in the microstructure of nanocrystalline CoNiFe. The nanocrystalline CoNiFe prepared in heat treatment temperature of 700°C, achieved the highest hardness of 449 HVN. The surface roughness of nanocrystalline CoNiFe heated at 700°C was found to be smaller than other temperatures.
