Corrosion by liquid oxides is one of the most severe modes of degradations which limit the lifetime of the refractory linings. The study of the microstructures of corroded refractories provides essential information. However, the interpretation of the microscopic observations is difficult : - The refractories are multi-component and heterogeneous ceramics, - The microscopic observations are carried out at room temperature. They are not representative of the mineral and vitreous phases existing at high temperature, - During cooling, new solid phases appear by crystallization of liquid oxides. The composition of the vitreous phases also evolves with the temperature. Consequently, the information obtained is often limited. In this paper , we will present a method to analyse and interpret the microstructures of refractories after use. The concept of local thermodynamic equilibrium and the use of the phase rule make it possible to interpret the microstructures of corroded refractories, to explain the observed mineral zonation and to quantify the composition of the liquid phase at high temperature from chemical profiles established by S.E.M. Experimental data from corrosion of MgO-C, Al2O3-MgO and high alumina refractories will illustrate and validate this theoretical approach.

Crack Growth Model

Experiments on the fatigue crack growth have shown great dispersancy. Study on stochastic crack growth of material at room temperature has been widely performed. However, probabilistic model for crack growth at fatigue-creep has been little investigated due to the complexity of the deterministic model for crack growth at fatigue-creep as well as the time-consuming and the difficulty of the experiments. Traditional crack measurement such as direct current and alternating current electrical potential technique, compliance method is limited for circuit interference at large crack, especially when the temperature is higher than 500°C. Experimental system to achieve real-time FCCG detection at high temperature is established by introducing a long-distance microscope with high magnification and resolution from distances of 15cm to 35cm. The experimental setup consists of a dynamic testing machine, a machine controller, a temperature controlled box, a long-distance microscope and a high temperature furnace from room temperature to 1000°C. Then the fatigue-creep crack growth (FCCG) rate tests on thirty compact tension (CT) specimens made of GH4133B material at 600°C are carried out. The reason for choosing the GH4133B Ni-based superalloy is owing to its popularity in use for the turbine disc of the aero-engine. The tests are conducted on a 100KN capacity servo-hydraulic closed-loop machine employed trapezoidal load with hold time at upon peak load. Based on the crack growth models used for room temperature, the deterministic model for FCCG rate considering the parameters including temperature, hold time is established through comparison of the analytical results with the experimental data. Then the stochastic FCCG model for GH4133B is proposed and the probability of random to reach a specified crack size can be obtained as well as the distribution function of crack size at the service time. Through comparison between the analytical and experimental results, it’s found that the probabilistic FCCG model can fit the experimental data well. Once the stochastic FCCG model is established, it can be used for the probabilistic damage tolerance design of the turbine components made of GH4133B material.

ABSTRACTWe have explored the structure and the dynamics of a bimetallic system consisting of a hexagonal (almost) overlayer of Agon a square lattice (Ni(100) and Cu(100)), as a function of the surface temperature. In each case the structure is "nearly" incommensurate giving rise to a low frequency Goldstone mode. Also, the overlayer atoms slosh back and forth over the substrate in a corrugated fashion. The calculated dispersion of the Ag/metal vertical mode, at room temperature, is in excellent agreement with experimental data. At higher temperatures floater atoms appear on top of the overlayer displaying a variety of cluster formations and also exchanges with the substrate atoms leading to surface disordering, interdiffusion and melting.

In order to study the load-bearing properties of butt-welded connection of steel structure post fire, the strength design value of weld connection post-fire is proposed based on the experimental data and theoretical analysis. Considering the influence of different high temperatures and cooling patterns on strength damage of the weld, a revised checking method for strength of butt-welded connection of steel structure after high temperature is established on the basis of the analysis method for strength of butt-welded connection of steel structure at room temperature. The method can be used for damage assessment and strengthening technique of steel structure post fire.

In the Fe-Ni system, although ordered FeNi and ordered Ni3Fe are experimentally well established, direct evidence for ordered Fe3Ni is unconvincing. Little experimental data for Fe3Ni exists because diffusion is sluggish at temperatures below 400°C and because alloys containing less than 29 wt% Ni undergo a martensitic transformation at room temperature. Fe-Ni phases in iron meteorites were examined in this study because iron meteorites have cooled at slow rates of about 10°C/106 years, allowing phase transformations below 400°C to occur. One low temperature transformation product, called clear taenite 2 (CT2), was of particular interest because it contains less than 30 wtZ Ni and is not martensitic. Because CT2 is only a few microns in size, the structure and Ni content were determined through electron diffraction and x-ray microanalysis. A Philips EM400T operated at 120 kV, equipped with a Tracor Northern 2000 multichannel analyzer, was used.

This work relates to the field of thermophysical parameters of refractory interstitial alloys. The isochoric heat capacity of cubic titanium carbide TiCx has been calculated within the Debye approximation in the carbon concentration  range x = 0.70–0.97 at room temperature (300 K) and at liquid nitrogen temperature (80 K) through the Debye temperature established on the basis of neutron diffraction analysis data. It has been found out that at room temperature with decrease of carbon concentration the heat capacity significantly increases from 29.40 J/mol·K to 34.20 J/mol·K, and at T = 80 K – from 3.08 J/mol·K to 8.20 J/mol·K. The work analyzes the literature data and gives the results of the evaluation of the high-temperature dependence of the heat capacity СV of the cubic titanium carbide TiC0.97 based on the data of neutron structural analysis. It has been proposed to amend in the Neumann–Kopp formula to describe the high-temperature dependence of the titanium carbide heat capacity. After the amendment, the Neumann–Kopp formula describes the results of well-known experiments on the high-temperature dependence of the heat capacity of the titanium carbide TiCx. The proposed formula takes into account the degree of thermal excitation (a quantized number) that increases in steps with increasing temperature.The results allow us to predict the thermodynamic characteristics of titanium carbide in the temperature range of 300–3000 K and can be useful for materials scientists.

AbstractPolyhedral Oligomeric Silsequioxane molecules have been incorporated into a commercial polyurethane formulation to produce nanocomposite polyurethane foam. This tiny POSS silica molecule has been used successfully to enhance the performance of polymer systems using co-polymerization and blend strategies. In our investigation, we chose a high-temperature MDI Polyurethane resin foam currently used in military development projects. For the nanofiller, or “blend”, Cp7T7(OH)3 POSS was chosen. Structural characterization was accomplished by TEM and SEM to determine POSS dispersion and cell morphology, respectively. Thermal behavior was investigated by TGA. Two methods of TEM sample preparation were employed, Focused Ion Beam and Ultramicrotomy (room temperature).

ABSTRACTThe mechanical alloying behavior of elemental powders in the Nb-Si, Ta-Si, and Nb-Ta-Si systems was examined via X-ray diffraction. The line compounds NbSi2 and TaSi2 form as crystalline compounds rather than amorphous products, but Nb5Si3 and Ta5Si3, although chemically analogous, respond very differently to mechanical milling. The Ta5Si3 composition goes directly from elemental powders to an amorphous product, whereas Nb5Si3 forms as a crystalline compound. The Nb5Si3 compound consists of both the tetragonal room-temperature α phase (c/a = 1.8) and the tetragonal high-temperature β phase (c/a = 0.5). Substituting increasing amounts of Ta for Nb in Nb5Si3 initially stabilizes the α-Nb5Si3 structure preferentially, and subsequently inhibits the formation of a crystalline compound.
