Effects of various treatments with distilled water, absolute ethyl alcohol, and ethanol solution assisted with ultrasonic wave and supercritical CO2 on the structure, thermal stability and surface morphology of naturally green cotton were tested by Colorimeter, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscope (SEM), optical microscope and HVI 900A cotton fiber detector. Results showed that ultrasonic wave contributed to pigment extraction and supercritical CO2 treatment promoted pigment to move outward causing deepening color. The data indicated that these treatments had no significant impacts on supramolecular structure, heat-resistant quality, and single fiber strength of green cotton.

The objective of this study was to develop a novel silica modified large-sized hydroxyapatite whiskers with improved properties for use in bone repair applications. Large-sized whiskers with a mean length of 250μm were obtained by a hydrothermal co-precipitation method at 150°C, 7.5Mpa in high-pressure reactor. Silica modified hydroxyapatite whiskers were prepared by dissolving TEOS in ethanol solution, then sintering with hydroxyapatite. The compositional and morphological properties of prepared whiskers were studied by means of x-ray diffraction (XRD), Fouier transform infrared (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results indicated the evidence of nanosilicon dioxide particles on the surface of HAP whiskers. The size of nanosilicon dioxide particles depends on dropping and stirring rate. Hence, this new type of silica modified large-sized hydroxyapatite whiskers is a valuable candidate for biomedical applications.Key words: hydroxyapatite, hydrothermal co-precipitation, surface modified, whiskers

S-doped Bi2MoO6 nanosheets were successfully synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method. The as-prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), N2 adsorption–desorption isotherms, Raman spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), elemental mapping spectroscopy, photoluminescence spectra (PL), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and UV-visible diffused reflectance spectra (UV-vis DRS). The photo-electrochemical performance of the samples was investigated via an electrochemical workstation. The S-doped Bi2MoO6 nanosheets exhibited enhanced photocatalytic activity under visible light irradiation. The photo-degradation rate of Rhodamine B (RhB) by S-doped Bi2MoO6 (1 wt%) reached 97% after 60 min, which was higher than that of the pure Bi2MoO6 and other S-doped products. The degradation rate of the recovered S-doped Bi2MoO6 (1 wt%) was still nearly 90% in the third cycle, indicating an excellent stability of the catalyst. The radical-capture experiments confirmed that superoxide radicals (·O2−) and holes (h+) were the main active substances in the photocatalytic degradation of RhB by S-doped Bi2MoO6.

It took long time for reed leaf cellulose to dissolve in ionic liquid (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride), and part of the cellulose was degraded and the fiber strength reduced greatly. In order to decrease its dissolution time, the ultrasonic wave pretreatment was applied in this article. Results were showed through polarizing microscopy, SEM, FT-IR and XRD. By comparing the original fiber with the regenerated cellulose, it can be concluded that Ultrasonic wave pretreatment significantly increased the crystallinity of the fiber, weakened the fibrillation on fiber surface obviously, which proved the process was a physical change and did not affect the cellulose structure.

Eu(DBM)3•phen complexes have been Successfully synthesized by the sonication of an Ethanol solution of europium chloride and dibenzoylmethanide (DBM) in the presence of 1,10-phenanthroline(phen). The properties of the Eu(DBM)3•phen complexes were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform Infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and fluorescence spectrometry (FS). Reaction conditions, such as ultrasonic power and the concentration of complexing reagent, were found to have close relation with the morphologies of final products. The formation mechanism of Eu(DBM)3•phen complexes with ultrasonic irradiation is discussed in the context.

Brazing experiments of polycrystalline CBN abrasive grains and AISI 1045 steel matrix using 95(72Ag-28Cu)-5Ti (wt.%) filler alloy were carried out at the heating temperature of 900 °C for the dwell time of 8 min. The microstructure of the brazing interface among PCBN grain, Ag-Cu-Ti alloy and steel matrix, was characterized with optical microscope, scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction equipment. Grinding performance of the brazed polycrystalline CBN abrasive tools was evaluated experimentally by comparison with monocrystalline CBN counterparts. The results show that the reaction layer between polycrystalline CBN abrasive grain and Ag-Cu-Ti filler layer consists of the compounds of Ti-nitride, Ti-borides and Ti3AlN. The resultants have played an important role in terms of strong chemical joining at the grain-filler interface. The brazed abrasive tools with polycrystalline CBN grains have given higher material removal rate and longer service life than that with monocrystalline CBN ones.

In order to increase cavitation erosion resistance of fluid machinery, an iron-based coating was prepared by high velocity arc spraying (HVAS) on the surface of 1Cr18Ni9Ti stainless steel. The microstructure and performance were investigated respectively by optical microscope (OM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), Vickers hardness and vibratory cavitation apparatus. The results indicated that the coating had the higher hardness (8.67GPa) and the finer structure than ZG230-450 (1.86GPa) used actual in water conservancy. Compared with ZG230-450, cavitation erosion resistance of the coating was better, and the coating presented flakiness stripping mode. The results indicated that the HVAS is a promising method to prepare the cavitation resistance coating.

Ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) fibers were fabricated by a single-screw melt spinning machine at different drawing roll speed ratios and different drawing roll temperatures. Thermogravimetric analyzer, differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction (XRD), digital fiber sound velocimeter and single fiber strength testers were used to discuss the impacts of spinning processes on the structure and performance of ETFE fibers. The results indicated that four different fibers showed a similar melting temperature at around 257℃. XRD results revealed that the largest crystallinity of four ETFE fibers was 41.1%. As the drawing temperature increased, the crystallinity of ETFE fibers decreased and the grain size increased. The breaking strength of four as-spun ETFE fibers reached up to 1.12 cN/dtex. The minimum shrinkage of ETFE fibers at 200℃ was 7%, and it was only 1% at most below 150℃. The maximum creep strain of ETFE fibers was 6% when the loading capacity was 20% of the breaking strength at room temperature and ETFE fibers had a high recovery ratio of >90% after the load was removed. Moreover, ETFE fibers showed exceptional corrosion resistance and good performance of irradiation resistance.

With the aim to obtain the high cavitation-erosion-resistance coating for the surface safeguard of fluid machinery, two kinds of hard coatings (WC-Cr-Co and Cr3C2-NiCr) were prepared on 1Cr18Ni9Ti substrate by high velocity oxy-fuel spraying (HVOF), which microstructure and performance were investigated respectively by optical microscope, X-ray diffraction, Vickers hardness, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and vibratory cavitation apparatus. The results indicated that these two coatings had the higher hardness and the finer structure than ZG06Cr13Ni5Mo, which is used actual in water conservancy. The results of cavitation erosion continued for 39 hours presented that the mass loss of WC-Cr-Co and Cr3C2 -NiCr coatings increased ceaselessly with time, and the cavitation erosion speeds varied with time. Compared with ZG06Cr13Ni5Mo, their cavitation erosion resistance performances were better due to their higher hardness and finer structure, and WC-Cr-Co coating was much better than Cr3C2-NiCr coating. Obviously, the higher hardness and finer structure could strengthen the cavitation erosion resistance of coating materials.
