The characteristics of process mineralogy of some pyrite cinders were studied with optics microscopes, scanning electron microscope, and x-ray diffraction. The chemical composition and the phase composition of the pyrite cinders were analyzed. The occurrence and chemical phase analysis of molybdenum of iron, copper, and gold were also studied. The behaviors of various minerals and mineralogical factors affecting the separation had been explained clearly. The investigation results were favorable to reasonable selection of technological process.

The characteristics of process mineralogy of the some lead-zinc mine were studied with scanning electron microscope, optics microscopes,and x-ray diffraction. The species of lead minerals and zinc minerals and the chemical composition of the minerals were analyzed. The liberations at different grinding finenesses and the particle sizes of the minerals had been also determined. The phase shape of lead and zinc in the ore was also analyzed. The behaviors of various minerals and mineralogical factors affecting the flotation had been explained clearly. The investigation results were favorable to reasonable selection of flotation parameters and would provide theoretical guidance to lead-zinc separation.

<p> <span class="fontstyle0">Sustainable alternatives have been developed with the use of waste in construction, among which we can highlight mining waste due to its large amount generated and environmental impact caused. This work consists in the joint application of scheelite residue and stone powder with lime and cement addition, producing cylindrical specimens, to evaluate possible uses in constructive materials. After chemical and physical characterization, the percentage of each residue was determined through the analysis of packing between the particles, which resulted in a formulation of 50% of each residue with the addition of cement and / or lime in the contents of 6% and 12%. Essays for simple compressive strength (SCS), water absorption (WA) and chemical phase analysis by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were evaluated at determined cure times. The SCS essays results of formulations with residues and cement reached values above 1 MPa and WA essays results with value below 20%, according to the Brazilian technical standards. Cement phases were observed in SEM and XRD analysis. The results obtained from mixing the waste with the cement are promising for the manufacture of cement building materials.</span> <br /><br /></p>

AbstractWe present a selection of x-ray diffraction patterns of spherical (He, Ar), dumbbell- (N2, CO), and chain-like molecules (n-C9H20, n-C19H40) solidified in nanopores of silica glass (mean pore diameter 7nm). These patterns allow us to demonstrate how key principles governing crystallization have to be adapted in order to accomplish solidification in restricted geometries. 4He, Ar, and the spherical close packed phases of CO and N2 adjust to the pore geometry by introducing a sizeable amount of stacking faults. For the pore solidified, medium-length chainlike n-C19H40 we observe a close packed structure without lamellar ordering, whereas for the short-chain C9H20 the layering principle survives, albeit in a modified fashion compared to the bulk phase.

Mortars from the cistern in Amaiur Castle (Navarre, Spain) were analysed to assess the mortar manufacturing process and application techniques. To this end, optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray fluorescence (XRF), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman microspectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were performed. The study of both structural and plaster mortars from Amaiur Castle cistern show patterns/rules in the mortar manufacture according to the specific construction requirements. A multilayer application technique was used for the construction of the cistern tank. Deliberate selection of the aggregate nature and grading contributed to mortar impermeability. Ceramic and silico-aluminous rock fragments were used as aggregates in the cistern tank to confer hydraulicity to the mortars, instead of carbonated aggregates as used in the vault. Aluminosilicated phases present in the aggregates led to the formation of amesite, which is a magnesium aluminosilicate hydrate (M-A-S-H) phase conferring hydraulicity to the mortar. Two types of additives were identified in the outer pigmented layer of plaster. Beeswax was the identified organic additive used to improve the impermeability of mortar, while hematite was the identified inorganic additive giving rise to the reddish colour of the layer.

Five new types of microporous beryllophosphates were hydrothermally synthesized using BeO-P2O5-R-MCl (or MCl2)-H2O, R being cyclohexylamine (CHA), pyrrolidine, 1-butylamine or triethylamine, M alkali or alkali earth cation. X-Ray diffraction patterns (XRD), infrared (IR), TG-DT and elemental analysis show that the crystalline beryllophosphates have novel, unique framework structures, composed from basic units of tetrahedral PO4 and BeO4. These materials exhibit zeolite-like adsorption and ion-exchange properties. Factors affecting the product crystallization (as e.g. pH), type of cation and composition of reaction mixture are discussed.

ABSTRACTThe structural, optical, and electrical properties of HVPE-grown GaN-on-sapphire templates were studied. The c and a lattice constants of the GaN layers were measured by x-ray diffraction. It was observed that the c and a lattice constants vary non-monotonically with Si-doping. The proper selection of Si-doping level and growth conditions resulted in controllable strain relaxation, and thus, influenced defect formation in GaN-on-sapphire templates. It was also observed that HVPE homoepitaxial GaN layers grown on the templates have better crystal quality and surface morphology than the initial templates.

AbstractFourier transform methods of smoothing and interpolation are applied to X-ray diffraction data. It is shown that, frequently, too small a step size is used. Major gains are to be expected by selection of the optimum step size and use of these methods.A comparison of Fourier transforms of diffractograms of quartz measured between 67 and 69° 2θ, collected at varying step intervals (0.1 to 0.01° 2θ) was used to illustrate these applications. By examining the Fourier transform of the diffractogram and noting where it decays to die baseline, a reasonable estimate of the optimal step interval can be obtained. In addition, Fourier interpolation can be used to enhance the appearance of the diffractogram, approximating a continuous plot.

Crystallinity of semicrystalline polymers such as aliphatic homopolymer poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) affects their degradation and physical properties. In this paper, the effects of laser irradiation using the third harmonic of a Nd:YAG laser on the crystallinity, long-range order, and short-range conformations at the surface of PLLA films are investigated. The factors affecting the transformation are also studied. Detailed characterization of the effect of laser treatment is accomplished using microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and infrared spectroscopy. The cooling rates in the process and the spatial and temporal temperature profiles are numerically examined. The simulation results in conjunction with melting and crystallization kinetics of PLLA are used to understand the effect on sample crystallinity. The effects of laser fluence and annealing conditions on the crystallinity of the processed films are examined. Since degradation profiles depend on crystallinity, laser processing can potentially be used to achieve a modified spatially controlled polymer surface with promising applications such as controlled drug delivery.
