Fe-Al intermetallics coatings are prepared on an aluminum alloy ZL114A by laser cladding pure Fe and Al powders. The microstructure and hardness of the coatings are analyzed by using optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and microhardness testing machines. The results show that a fine surface quality can be obtained under a suitable process parameter of laser. The laser cladding layers are mainly consisted of FeAl, FeAl3, Fe2Al5 and Fe3Al phases. The two cladding layers (60Fe-40Al, 90Fe-10Al) have high microhardness, which achieve HV520 and HV890.

In this paper, the enhancement of NiCrBSi coatings by adding Cr3C2 were investigated. The NiCrBSi coatings with different additions of Cr3C2 were produced by laser cladding. The microstructure, hardness and wear resistance of the coatings were studied by optical microscope (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), microhardness tester and M-200 wear tester. It is found that the main phases in the coatings are [Formula: see text]-Ni, Cr[Formula: see text]C6 and Cr7C3, and they also contain a small amount of CrB, Ni4B3 and Ni3Si2. Moreover, with the increase of Cr3C2 addition, the microhardness and wear resistance of coatings are obviously improved. When the addition of Cr3C2 is 20%, the wear resistance of the coating is the best, and the wear resistance of the coating increased by 191.2% than that of the Cr3C2-free coating. The wear resistance of coating decreases when the addition of Cr3C2 reaches 30%.

The phase equilibrium in systems of CuSbS2 – PrSbS3 and CuSbS2 – ErSbS3 has been studied by physicochemical methods (Differential thermal analysis – DTA, X-ray diffraction phase analysis, Scanning Electron Microscopy – SEM analysis and microhardness testing) and their T-x diagrams were drawn. It was determined that both systems are quazibinary and characterized by formation of Cu2LnSb3S7 -type (Ln = Pr, Er) compounds. Cu2PrSb3S7 melts congruently at 1050 K and is the phase with unstable content. Its dissolution zone changes within concentration interval of 32-37 mole% of PrSbS3. Cu2PrSb3S7 divides the system into two sub-systems: CuSbS2-Cu2PrSb3S7 and Cu2PrSb3S7-PrSbS3. Both of sub-systems are eutectic. The coordinates of the eutectic point are like following: 15 mole % PrSbS3, T = 740 K and 50 mole % PrSbS3, T = 790 K. Cu2ErSb3S7 melts at 920 K by decomposition. At 725K between Cu2ErSb3S7 and CuSbS2 compounds in content of 15 mole % of ErSbS3 is formed eutectic balance. 4 mole % of solid solution is formed on base of CuSbS2. Both compounds are crystallized by naffildite-type structure in the form of rhombic syngonia (Cu2PrSb3S7 – a = 1.444; b = 2.146; c = 0.3995 nm; z = 4; Cu2ErSb3S7 – a = 1.430; b = 2.128; c = 0.380 nm; z = 4; stereogroup Pbnm or Pbn21).

This work has as main objectives to produce the ceramic Sr2MgWO6and evaluate their reactivity to petroleum. Powders of SrCO3, MgO and WO3were selected, taken in stoichiometric amounts and synthesized by conventional route. The synthesis was characterized by size distribution, specific surface area and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The synthesis was also fragmented into ball mill and characterized by specific surface. It was compacted, then was calcined at 1200 °C and analyzed by X-ray diffraction. The powders Sr2MgWO6with perovskite structure were compacted and sintered at 1250, 1300 and 1350 °C. The materials produced were evaluated by microhardness, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), diffraction of X-rays and tests submersion in petroleum. The results showed that the ceramics have high microhardness and potential to be used in chemically aggressive environments such as petroleum.

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.

AbstractSeveral photocatalysts, based on titanium dioxide, were synthesized by spark anodization techniques and anodic spark oxidation. Photocatalytic activity was determined by methylene blue oxidation and the catalytic activities of the catalysts were evaluated after 70 hours of reaction. Scanning Electron Microscopy and X Ray Diffraction analysis were used to characterize the catalysts. The photocatalyst prepared with a solution of sulfuric acid and 100 V presented the best performance in terms of oxidation of the dye (62%). The electric potential during the synthesis (10 V, low potential; 100 V, high potential) affected the surface characteristics: under low potential, catalyst presented smooth and homogeneous surfaces with spots (high TiO2 concentration) of amorphous solids; under low potential, catalyst presented porous surfaces with crystalline solids homogeneously distributed.

AbstractThe effect of microstructure of dc magnetron sputtered TiN and TaN diffusion barriers on the palladium activation for autocatalytic electroless copper deposition has been investigated by using X-ray diffraction, sheet resistance measurement, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and plan view transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The density of palladium nuclei on TaN diffusion barrier increases as the grain size of TaN films decreases, which was caused by increasing nitrogen content in TaN films. Plan view TEM results of TiN and TaN diffusiton barriers showed that palladium nuclei formed mainly on the grain boundaries of the diffusion barriers.

Aim and Objective: Formation of the gallbladder stones is a common disease and a major health problem. The present study aimed to identify the structures of the most common types of gallbladder stones using X-ray spectroscopic techniques, which provide information about the process of stone formation. Material and Method: Phase and elemental compositions of pure cholesterol and mixed gallstones removed from gallbladders of patients were studied using energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy combined with scanning electron microscopy analysis and X-ray diffraction. Results: The crystal structures of gallstones which coincide with standard patterns were confirmed by X-ray diffraction. Plate-like cholesterol crystals with laminar shaped and thin layered structures were clearly observed for gallstone of pure cholesterol by scanning electron microscopy; it also revealed different morphologies from mixed cholesterol stones. Elemental analysis of pure cholesterol and mixed gallstones using energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy confirmed the different formation processes of the different types of gallstones. Conclusion: The method of fast and reliable X-ray spectroscopic techniques has numerous advantages over the traditional chemical analysis and other analytical techniques. The results also revealed that the X-ray spectroscopy technique is a promising technique that can aid in understanding the pathogenesis of gallstone disease.
