Element Migration

Nanometer Si powders were used as interlayer materials, which were expected to be microwave heated rapidly and reacted with the surface of Al2O3ceramics to form the low eutectoid compound. The phenomena of element migration of joint samples were investigated by energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and the interface phase transition was analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results indicated that the low eutectoid compound of the joint interface wetted and penetrated to the ceramic surface. The variation of micro-hardness at the interface across the parent material was measured by micro-hardness instrument and the interfacial microstructure and the fracture surface were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

Powder Interlayer

The bonding strength, and microstructures of Cu and Al couples using metallic powders as interlayer during transient liquid phase bonding (TLP bonding) were investigated. The interfacial morphologies and microstructures were studied by scanning electron microscopy equipped with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. First, to explore the optimum bonding time and temperature, nine samples were bonded without interlayers in a vacuum condition. Mechanical test results indicated that bonding at 560°C in 20 min returns the highest bond strength (84% of Al). This bonding condition was used to join ten samples with powder interlayers. Powders were prepared by mixing different combinations of Cu, Al (+Fe nanoparticles) and Zn. In the bonding zone, different Cu9Al4, CuAl, and CuAl2 intermetallic co-precipitate. The strongest bonding is formed in the sample with the 70Al (+Fe)-30Cu powder interlayer. Powder interlayers present thinner and more uniform intermetallic layers at the joint interface.

sp2 rich carbon films were produced by using magnetron sputtering deposition. The hardness, friction coefficient and wear volume were elevated by Knoop micro-hardness and pin-on-disk tester; The composition and microstructure of the carbon films have been characterized in detail by combining the techniques of Rutherford Backscattering Spectrum (RBS), X-Ray Photoelectron Spectrum (XPS) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD); the electrical resistivity was measured by Four Probe Methods (FPM). It is found that: the films hardness are 11~17GPa (HK0.05), the friction coefficients are 0.1-0.2, the wear rate is 10-15m3/Nm; The maximum intensity position in the C1s indicates the chemical bonds are mainly sp2; the electrical resistivity is 1~2×10-4Ω·m. XRD proves these carbon films are amorphous.

Brazed Joints

Titanium and zirconia (ZrO2) ceramics are widely used in biomedical fields. This study aims to achieve reliable brazed joints of titanium/ZrO2 using biocompatible Au filler for implantable medical products. The effects of brazing temperature and holding time on the interfacial microstructures and mechanical properties of titanium/Au/ZrO2 joints were fully investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive spectrometry (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results indicated that the typical interfacial microstructure of the titanium/Au/ZrO2 joint was titanium/Ti3Au layer/TiAu layer/TiAu2 layer/TiAu4 layer/TiO layer/ZrO2 ceramic. With an increasing brazing temperature or holding time, the thickness of the Ti3Au + TiAu + TiAu2 layer increased gradually. The growth of the TiO layer was observed, which promoted metallurgical bonding between the filler metal and ZrO2 ceramic. The optimal shear strength of ~35.0 MPa was obtained at 1150 °C for 10 min. SEM characterization revealed that cracks initiated and propagated along the interface of TiAu2 and TiAu4 reaction layers.

Al-Cu-Fe quasicrystals powder was used to prepare the thin films on the surface of the A3 steel by the means of DMD-450 vacuum evaporation equipment. The thin films with different characterization were obtained through different parameters. The microstructures of the thin films were analyzed by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD). Additionally, the nano-hardness and the modulus of the films are tested by MTS and Neophot micro-hardness meter. The results showed that the modulus of the films was about 160GPa. Nano hardness of the films was about 7.5 Gpa. The films consisted of CuAl2, AlCu3. The thickness and the micro-hardness of the films are improved. In same way, with the increase of the electric current, the thickness and the hardness of the films are also improved. Along with increase of the time and the electric current, the wear behavior of the films was improved. To some extent, the microstructure of films contained the quasicrystal phase of Al65Cu20Fe15.

Cemented tungsten carbides have been paid much attention due its better mechanical properties with excellent combination of hardness and toughness characteristics. The hard WC particles in the coating provide hardness and wear resistance, while the ductile binder such as Co and Ni contribute to toughness and strength. WC-17wt.% Co and WC-9wt.% Ni powders have been sprayed by the HVOF method to form coatings approximately 300μm and 150μm thick onto AISI 1018 steel substrate. Both coatings have been prepared and supplied by an external vendor. The coatings were examined using optical microscope (OM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and X-Ray diffraction (XRD). The hardness of both coatings were also measured using Vickers micro-hardness tester. The microstructure of the coatings has been analyzed and found to consist of WC, brittle W2C phase, metallic W phase, and amorphous binder phase of Co and Ni. It is found that WC-Ni has a higher hardness value compared to WC-Co due to high porosity distribution.

AbstractThree soil profiles classed as brown forest soils on schistose parent material, in close proximity but under different land uses, have been studied. The profile under 50 year-old Sitka spruce trees is the most acidic, the second profile under rough grassland is less acidic, and the third profile in an arable field which has been fertilized is the least acidic. The clay fractions (ς μm) of all three profiles are very similar. However, computer simulations of the X-ray diffraction patterns of clay phases using a modified version of NEWMOD revealed two possible weathering trends: (1) an increasing proportion of vermiculite in interstratified mica-vermiculite in the upper horizons of the arable and forested soils; (2) formation of high-charge corrensite by weathering of chlorite in all three profiles but least pronounced in the arable soil. The differences in clay mineralogy amongst the profiles are minor, but these two different weathering trends may be due to the effects of different land use.

The glass-ceramic materials were produced from silicon slag with the addition of talcum powder and TiO2 by melting them in an electrically heated furnace and subsequent heat treatment at various temperatures and time. The microstructure and crystallization behaviors of glass–ceramics have been investigated by differential thermal analysis (DTA), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). With the increase of silicon slag content, the sequent precipitate phase is: krinovite Na (Mg1.9Fe0.1)Cr (SiO)3O, pseudobrookite Fe2TiO5 and anorthite Ca (Al2Si2O8), enstatite ferroan MgFeSi2O6, and albite Na (AlSi3O8). The shape of crystals was spherical grains. The glass–ceramic sample obtained from 70% silicon slag had the excellent mechanical performance including flexural strength of 200.45 MPa and Vickers micro hardness of 909.72 MPa.
