The purpose of this work is to understand the phases formation and lattice parameter changes with addition 0.6 to 2.7 wt.% in Al-Si-Mg-Ce cast alloy. Al-Si-Mg-Ce eutectic and hypoeutectic cast alloy were prepared by conventional casting technique. The alloys were investigated by using optical microscope, Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-Ray diffractometry (XRD). The addition of Ce resulted in precipitation of Al4Ce in eutectic cast alloy and CeMg2Si2 in hypoeutectic cast alloy. The lattice parameter of Al increases with increase in Ce content wheareas lattice parameter of Si phase decreases as the Ce content increases.

P/M Ti-Al-Mo-V-Ta alpha-beta alloys were processed by hot-pressing sintering technique. The effects of Ta additions on microstructure and properties of the Ti-5Al-4Mo-4V alloys were investigated using X-ray diffraction, optical microscope, scanning electron microscope and mechanical properties tests. The results show that minor Ta addition improves the relative density and the mechanical properties of P/M Ti-5Al-4Mo-4V alloys. After sintering for 4h at 1623 K, the relative density and compression strength of Ti-5Al-4Mo-4V-5Ta alloy are 99.3% and 1950 MPa.

Pore Plugging

Sandstone pore-plugging is a serious problem that bothers acid in situ leaching (ISL) uranium deposit, but currently, the mechanism of pore-plugging has not attracted much attention. In this study, using X-ray fluorescence, scanning electron microscope, optical microscope, and X-ray diffraction, we present both macro- and micro-evidence of pore-plugging occurred during acid in situ mining of sandstone uranium deposit at Yili Basin, NW (northwest) China. Our study reveals that in comparison with normal sandstones, the plugged sandstones are yellow in color and have relatively high contents of Fe and chamosite. The plugging in studied samples is mainly caused by precipitation of Fe(OH)3 at a pH of 2.0–4.0 for quantitative effect and by precipitation of gypsum (CaSO4·2H2O) as well. Alteration/dissolution of chamosite and to a lesser extent, Fe-bearing microcline and muscovite, may have contributed iron for Fe(OH)3 precipitation. It is suggested that adjustment of injection pH < 2.0 throughout the leaching passage would be an effective way to avoid/minimize this type of sandstone pore-plugging.

The microstructure and microhardness of plasma welding (PAW) joint with surfacing welded cobalt-based alloy have been investigated by using Optical microscope (OP) ,X-ray, scanning electron microscope (SEM),and microhardness testing. The results show that the surfacing layer microstructure is made up of the dendrite (γ-Co) and eutectic (γ-Co+M7C3). The microhardness decreases from surfacing layer to substrate. The highest hardness on the surfacing layer obtains with 550HV up. The fusion zone’s and substrate’s microhardness is about 380HVand 280HV respectively.

The article illustrates the influence of ball milling of the 316L and 434L stainless steel powders as well as their mixture (50 wt. % of 434L + 50 wt. % of 316L) on their structure. Medium size of the grains (about 30 nm) was obtained after 110 hours of milling. The powders that obtained were pressed isostatically and sintered by impulse plasma method in vacuum. The samples were then characterized using an optical microscope equipped with a computer image analyzer, scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffractometer.

Zr Alloy

Highly ordered Ti-Nb-Zr-O nanotube arrays were fabricated through pulse anodic oxidation of Ti-Nb-Zr alloy in 1 M NaH2PO4containing 0.5 wt% HF electrolytes. The effect of anodization parameters and Zr content on the microstructure and composition of Ti-Nb-Zr-O nanotubes was investigated using a scanning electron microscope equipped with energy dispersive X-ray analysis. It was found that length of the Ti-Nb-Zr-O nanotubes increased with increase of Zr contents. The diameter and the length of Ti-Nb-Zr-O nanotubes could be controlled by pulse voltage. XRD analysis of Ti-Nb-Zr-O samples annealed at 500°C in air indicated that the (101) diffraction peaks shifted from 25.78° to 25.05° for annealed Ti-Nb-Zr-O samples with different Zr contents because of larger lattice parameter of Ti-Nb-Zr-O compared to that of undoped TiO2.

Reconstructive tomography is a new technique in diagnostic radiology for imaging cross-sectional planes of the human body /1/. A collimated beam of X-rays is scanned through a thin slice of the body and the transmitted intensity is recorded by a detector giving a linear shadow graph or projection (see fig. 1). Many of these projections at different angles are used to reconstruct the body-layer, usually with the aid of a computer. The picture element size of present tomographic scanners is approximately 1.1 mm2.Micro tomography can be realized using the very fine X-ray source generated by the focused electron beam of a scanning electron microscope (see fig. 2). The translation of the X-ray source is done by a line scan of the electron beam on a polished target surface /2/. Projections at different angles are produced by rotating the object.During the registration of a single scan the electron beam is deflected in one direction only, while both deflections are operating in the display tube.

Over the past decades, the combination of energy-dispersive analysis of X-rays and scanning electron microscopy has proved to be a powerful tool for fast and reliable elemental characterization of a large variety of specimens. The technique has evolved rapidly from a purely qualitative characterization method to a reliable quantitative way of analysis. In the last 5 years, an increasing need for automation is observed, whereby energy-dispersive analysers control the beam and stage movement of the scanning electron microscope in order to collect digital X-ray images and perform unattended point analysis over multiple locations.The Philips High-speed Analysis of X-rays system (PHAX-Scan) makes use of the high performance dual-processor structure of the EDAX PV9900 analyser and the databus structure of the Philips series 500 scanning electron microscope to provide a highly automated, user-friendly and extremely fast microanalysis system. The software that runs on the hardware described above was specifically designed to provide the ultimate attainable speed on the system.

Partikel nano TiO2 berbasis air dengan pH basa telah berhasil disintesis dengan menggunakan metode sol-gel dan diimobilisasi pada kain kapas dengan menggunakan kitosan sebagai zat pengikat silang. Sintesis dilakukan  dengan prekursor TiCl4 pada konsentrasi 0,3 M, 0,5 M dan 1 M, dan menggunakan templat kanji dengan proses kalsinasi pada suhu 500˚C selama 2 jam. Partikel nano TiO2 diaplikasikan ke kain kapas dengan metoda pad-dry-cure dan menggunakan kitosan sebagai crosslinking agent. Berdasarkan hasil Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM),diketahui bahwa morfologi partikel TiO2 berbentuk spherical dengan ukuran nano (kurang dari 100 nm). Karakterisasi X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) menunjukkan adanya tiga tipe struktur kristal utama, yaitu (100), (101) dan (102) dengan fasa kristal yang terbentuk adalah anatase dan rutile. Pada karakterisasi menggunakan SEM terhadap serbuk dari TiO2 yang telah diaplikasikan ke permukaan kain kapas, terlihat adanya imobilisasi partikel nano TiO2 melalui ikatan hidrogen silang dengan kitosan pada kain kapas. Hasil analisa tersebut kemudian dikonfirmasi dengan FTIR (Fourier Transform Infra Red) yang hasilnya memperlihatkan puncak serapan pada bilangan gelombang 3495 cm-1, 2546 cm-1, dan 511 cm-1,  yang masing-masing diasumsikan sebagai adanya vibrasi gugus fungsi O-H, N-H dan Ti-O-Ti. Hasil SEM menunjukkan pula bahwa kristal nano yang terbentuk diantaranya adalah fasa rutile , yang berdasarkan literatur terbukti dapatberfungsi sebagai anti UV.

The paper presents a comparison of the results of the corrosion resistance for three Fe-B-Co-Si-based newly developed alloys with the addition of Nb and V. The corrosion performance differences and microstructure variations were systematically studied using scanning electron microscope, electric corrosion equipment, X-ray diffractometer, and differential calorimeter. It has been shown that each alloying addition increased the corrosion resistance. The highest corrosion resistance obtained by potentiodynamic polarization was found for the alloy with both Nb and V addons (Fe57Co10B20Si5Nb4V4) and lowest in the case of the basic four-element Fe62Co15B14Si9 material. This shows that the proper choice of additions is of significant influence on the final performance of the alloy and allows tailoring of the material for specific applications.
