Effect of different blending amount of LaCrO3, a composite additive, on the hydration resistance and crystallization properties of magnesia-calcium refractory were studied by measuring hydration rate, using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The results show that the LaCrO3at a low addition (≤1%) can significantly decrease the hydration resistance of the MgO-CaO material when the burning temperature is 1550°C, and the hydration rate is only 0.183%. LaCrO3can promote the growth of the CaO, while it has little effect on MgO. The Cr2O3and CaO can melt into CaO·Cr2O3in a high temperature. The CaO·Cr2O3can not only promote sintering but also wrap on the CaO, which is negative for the grain to contact with water, and consequently improve the hydration resistance of magnesia-calcium refractory.

The influence of the light burning temperature on the sintering property of nature dolomite has been investigated by two-step sintering process in the temperature range 1500 °C to 1600 °C. The resulting bulk densities and apparent porosities of the sintered dolomite samples were examined, and analyzing the sintered dolomite by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction were performed. The results showed light burned at 850 °C for 3 h, the main phases of the dolomite with 3-5 grain size were MgO, CaO and little CaCO3, and then fired at 1600 °C,the density of sintering dolomite reached to 3.38 g/cm3, the apparent property was 1.2 %, the size of MgO grain up to 3.75 μm . However when dolomite light burned at 1050 °C for 3 h, the main phases were MgO and CaO, and then fired at 1600 °C,the density of sintering dolomite only was 3.30 g/cm3, the apparent property was 2.3 %, the size of MgO only was 3.05 μm .

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.

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.

The influence of Silica fume/Nanosilica on the Performance of phosphoaluminate cement was studied in the paper. The microstructure and morphology was determined by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The experimental results show that the phosphoaluminate cement with 4% of added Silica fume/Nanosilica(1:1) by weight of cement has an optimum splitting strength, in which the increase of splitting strength are about 15.1%,11.8% and 24.6% at 3days,7days and 28 days. The reason for causing the above results are the hydration rate and the amount of the hydrates of PALC with 4% Silica fume/Nanosilica have been increased significantly at different hydration time because of the role played by Silica fume and Nanosilica together.

For preparing Mo-based composite materials enhanced by SiCf by powder metallurgy, the high temperature of chemical compatibility between SiCf and Mo was analyzed by experimental method in order to find whether the reinforcement can effectively composite with matrix for playing synergy effect. The mixture of SiCf and Mo powder was pressed and then sintered. Using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the fracture surface of the sintered body was observed. Using X-ray diffraction (XRD), the generation of new phase in the sintered body was analyzed. The sinter's density and hardness was tested also. The results are as follows. After 1750°C sintered, SiCf in the presence of metal Mo had decomposed and disappeared. Decomposed products which were C and Si had reacted with Mo to produce mainly compounds Mo5Si3, MoC and a small amount of MoSi2. The disappearance of the SiCf leave more holes in the substrate. Both density and hardness of the sinter are decreased.

Mica-based pearlescent pigments are widely applied in plastics, cosmetics, automobiles coatings and other fields, but very few applications in high temperature field are found as their poor heat resistance. In this paper, phlogopite is chosen as a new substrate which is coated by Fe2O3(doping with La3+) in order to improve the high temperature resistance and luster of the new developed pearlescent pigments. According to the X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results, it is found that Fe2O3nanospheres were coated on the surface of phlogopite homogenously. Colorimeter data imply that doping La3+can improve the color saturation and purity of pigments apparently. And the optimum amount is 3% lanthanum nitrate addition in this work.

AbstractGadolinium aluminum perovskite (GdAlO3, GAP) is a promising high temperature ceramic material, known for its wide applications in phosphors. Polycrystalline gadolinium aluminum perovskites were synthesized using a precursor of co-precipitate gel of GdAlO3 by employing hydrothermal supercritical fluid technique under pressure and temperature ranging from 150 to 200 MPa and 600 to 700 °C, respectively. The resulted products of GAP were studied using the characterization techniques, such as powder X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), infrared spectroscopy (IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive analysis of X-ray (EDX). The X-ray diffraction pattern matched well with the reported orthorhombic GAP pattern (JCPDS-46-0395).

Calcium is an important element in the growth and development of plants and one form of calcium is calcium oxalate. Calcium oxalate has been found in leaf seed, stem material plant tissue culture, fungi and lichen using one or more of the following methods—polarized light microscopy (PLM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and x-ray diffraction.Two methods are presented here for qualitatively estimating calcium oxalate in dried or fixed tobacco (Nicotiana) leaf from different stalk positions using PLM. SEM, coupled with energy dispersive x-ray spectrometry (EDS), and powder x-ray diffraction were used to verify that the crystals observed in the dried leaf with PLM were calcium oxalate.

Gallstones contain precipitated cholesterol, calcium salts, and proteins. Calcium (Ca) bilirubinate, palmitate, phosphate, and carbonate occurring in gallstones have variable morphologies but characteristic windowless energy dispersive x-ray (EDX) spectra. Previous studies of gallstone microstructure and composition using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with EDX have been limited to dehydrated samples. In this state, Ca bilirubinates appear as either glassy masses, which predominate in black pigment stones, or as clusters, which are found mostly in cholesterol gallstones. The three polymorphs of Ca carbonate, calcite, vaterite, and aragonite, have been identified in gallstones by x-ray diffraction, however; the morphologies of these crystals vary in the literature. The purpose of this experiment was to study fresh gallstones by environmental SEM (ESEM) to determine if dehydration affects gallstone Ca salt morphology.Gallstones and bile were obtained fresh at cholecystectomy from 6 patients. To prevent dehydration, stones were stored in bile at 37°C. All samples were studied within 4 days of procurement.
