View of the importance that has the development in the field of advanced technology transmission in human life, smart materials draws the attention of many researchers. In this contribution, we are interested in synthesizing a new smart material of the ceramic type based on Pb, Zr, Ti (PZT) doped La in the site A, and Sb, Zn in site B from a solid solution of pure oxides. The synthesized samples are thermally treated at 800°C. The techniques of x-ray diffraction (XRD) and SEM (scanning electron microscopy) are used to characterize the microstructure (the crystallographic phase), and the densities of the obtained samples were determined from their weights and volumes. The effect of sintering temperature on the microstructure properties was studied.

The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of sintering temperature on the synthesis of SiC produced from rice husk ash (RHA) and 2B graphite pencils. The SiC was synthesized by using solid state reaction method sintered at temperatures of 750°C, 1000°C and 1200°C for 26 hours, 11.5 hours and 11.5 hours, respectively. The quantity and crystallinity level of SiC phase were measured by means of Rigaku MiniFlexII X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). The microstructure of SiC was examined by using Tescan Vega3SB Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The XRD results showed that the concentration (wt%) of SiC phase increases with the increasing of sintering temperature. SEM results showed that the crystallinity level of SiC crystal is improving as the sintering temperature increases

CaF2 nano-power was prepared by direct precipitation methods with Ca(NO3)2 and KF as raw materials. The influences of presintering temperature and sintering temperature on the particle size and distribution of CaF2 nano-power were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). This study provided an experimental method for preparation of CaF2 nano-power. The results show that the best presintering temperature of CaF2 nano-power is 500°C and the best sintering temperature of CaF2 ceramic is 900°C.

Based on the background that large amount of iron ore tailings are stockpiled in China, the utilization of iron ore tailings to prepare sintering brick was studied. The main objective of this paper was to investigate the influence of sintering temperature on sintering bricks from iron ore tailings, in the presence of clay, coal refuses and bentonite. Sintering bricks were prepared at different temperature with 40 wt% iron ore tailings. Drying was investigated as well as the loss on ignition, bulk density and compressive strength of the specimens. Their mechanical and microstructure properties were also investigated by radioactivity, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results showed that compressive strengths of the specimens produced were higher than that required by the standards MU20 of GB5101-2003, up to 128.0Mpa at 1100°C corresponding to its higher bulk density completely.

In this study, free Ti/Si/Al/C powder mixtures with molar ratio of 3:0.4:0.8:1.8 were heated in Argon with various schedules, in order to reveal the possibility for the synthesis of Ti3Si0.4Al0.8C1.8 solid solution powder. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used for the evaluation of phase identities of the powder after different treatments. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to observe the morphology of the Ti3Si0.4Al0.8C1.8 solid solution. XRD results showed that predominantly single phase samples of Ti3Si0.4Al0.8C1.8 was prepared after heating at 1400oC for 5 min in Argon and the lattice parameters of Ti3Si0.4Al0.8C1.8 lay between those of Ti3SiC2 and Ti3AlC2.

Phase-pure Ba2Ti9O20 powders were made by doping 3 wt% of V2O5 to a Ba:Ti = 2:9 molar composition, and the effects of the dopant on the phase formation were investigated. The study shows that BaTiO3, BaTi2O5, and BaTi4O9 were the intermediate phases before the formation of Ba2Ti9O20 for samples with or without V2O5. However, with V2O5 doping, the temperature at which Ba2Ti9O20 occurred were lowered from 1150 to 1050 °C and single phase Ba2Ti9O20 powders was easily obtained at 1150 °C for 2 h. Microstructure of the powders was examined by field emission scanning electron microscopy. No evidence of V2O5–Ba2Ti9O20 solid-solution was found by x-ray diffraction and energy-dispersive spectroscopy. The benefit of V2O5 to facilitate the Ba2Ti9O20 synthesis is most probably due to a vanadium-containing eutectic liquid phase which accelerates the migration of reactant species.

In this paper, we reported a facile microwave-assisted green chemical route to prepare pure, uniform, and monodispersed Cu2O octahedron wrapped by the {111} faces by using glucose as a reducing agent. X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry(EDX) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) were used to characterize the as-synthesized products. It was found that the morphology and structure of Cu2O crystals were greatly affected by the concentration of NaOH. A solid-solution-solid growth mechanism was possibly proposed on the basis of the comparative experimental results.

Cr3C2-WC-Ni nanocomposite powders with ~50-100 nm were synthesized from precursors by vacuum-aided carbothermal reduction at only 750 °C for 2 h. The phase composition and microstructure of the synthesized products were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. The present study shows that Cr3C2-WC-Ni nanocomposite powders contain two kinds of solid-solution phases, namely Ni and (Cr, W)3C2solid solution, respectively. WC and W2C phases do not appear inreaction products due to the dissolution of tungsten atoms into Ni and Cr3C2unit cells. Especially, there is a change of the crystalline structure for (Cr, W)3C2phase from 750 °C to 800 °C.

Layered ternary compounds Ti3SiC2combines attractive properties of both ceramics and metals, and has been suggested for potential engineering applications. Near-fully dense Ti3SiC2bulks were sintered from commercial Ti3SiC2powders by hot press at 1350°C-1600°C for 60-120min under Ar atmosphere in this paper. The phase compositions and morphology of the as-prepared samples were evaluated by X-Ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). And the mechanical properties were measured by Three-Point bending method. It was found that the Ti3SiC2had only a little of decomposition at sintering temperature above 1350°C. And effects of sintering temperature and holding time on the morphology of the bulk Ti3SiC2are not obvious. Relative density of 98% and flexural strength of 480MPa were obtained for the Ti3SiC2samples sintered at 30MPa and 1400°C for 90min.

The effects of sintering temperatures on phase behavior of products from rutile and quartz by aluminothermic reduction nitridation (ARN) were investigated in this study. The crystalline phase and morphology of the samples were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. As the temperature was 1200 oC, the phases were corundum, TiN, Si and a small amount of cristobalite. Mullite were initially observed when it reached 1300 oC. A small amount of Si3Al3O3N5 was detected when the temperature rose to 1400 oC. More corundum, TiN and Si3Al3O3N5 were obtained at 1500 oC. The quantities of TiN and corundum increased slightly at 1550 oC while Si3Al3O3N5 reduced. In addition, the microstructure of well-developed β-Sialon crystals was long columnar and the TiN particles distributed in the composites.

AbstractSrTiO3 and PbTiO3 perovskites are combined to form the xPbTiO3-(1−x)SrTiO3 (PST) solid solution. The effect of the PbTiO3 content on the microstructural and dielectric properties is studied for different compositions (x=0.1,0.3,0.5,0.7, and 0.9). Microstructural features of the PST system are studied by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) techniques. Electrical properties are studied by the thermoelectric analysis technique at both fixed frequency and varying frequency to study the behavior of the dielectric constant and dielectric loss.Films of 0.5PbTiO3-0.5SrTiO3 (PST50) have been obtained by RF ion sputtering on different substrates. We investigate the relation between the crystalline structure and the dielectric properties of PST50 films deposited on different metallic films. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and X-Ray Diffraction were used for the structural analysis of the PST50/TiN/Si and PST50/RuO2/TiN /Si systems. The dielectric properties of the PST50 films were measured for TiN/PST50/TiN/Si, and RuO2/PST50/RuO2/TiN/Si capacitors and the results were correlated to the structure and composition. The charge storage capabilities of the PST50 films are evaluated for possible application in integrated circuit technology.
