A simple chemical conversion coating was adopted to deposit zinc calcium phosphate (ZCP) coating and strontium doped ZCP (SZCP) coating on AZ31 magnesium alloy to induce biocompatibility and reduce the degradation rate. The surface morphology, chemical composition and functional groups of the coating were characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy with Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) studies and Attenuated Total Reflectance-Fourier Transform Infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy respectively. SZCP coating formed at 20 min deposition time produced crack free surface with a high degree of crystallinity with barrier property, which ultimately retards the dissolution of magnesium in Simulated Body Fluid (SBF). The corrosion resistance of AZ31 magnesium alloy was improved by SZCP coating as evident from hydrogen evolution test (HET). Cytotoxicity evaluation with L969 cells showed that Sr doped ZCP coatings showed less toxicity on resorbable magnesium alloys.

ABSTRACTWe demonstrate an epitaxial heterostructure of Ba0.5Sr0.5 TiO3/SrRuO3/YSZ on Si for potential charge storage applications. The dielectric Ba0.5Sr0.5TiO3 (BST) and conductive oxide SrRuO3 are both grown (110) oriented on YSZ (100) buffered Si by 90° off-axis sputtering. These films showed a high degree of crystallinity with minimal interdiffusion at the interfaces as examined by X-ray diffraction, Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy, and cross-section transmission electron microscopy. The in-plane epitaxial alignment of the films is BST/SRO 〈111〉 // YSZ 〈110〉 with a four-fold degeneracy. The dielectric constant and loss tangent of the epi-BST films are 360 and 0.01 at 10 kHz. The leakage current density is < 4×10∼−7 A/cm2 at 1 V. The room temperature dielectric constant (ε) of the BST films shows a roll-off in the 1–10 MHz range. This is attributed to the existence of a series resistance in the measurement circuit, which likely arises from the SrRuO3 electrode.

A chrome-free chemical conversion coating was prepared using stannous sulfate as the main salt. The morphology of the chemical conversion surface layer was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Coating composition and the microcosmic phase structure were characterized using energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis and X-ray diffraction (XRD) respectively. Electrochemical method and dropping test were used to study the coatings corrosion resistance. The results indicated that the tin salts conversion coating is a crystal structure material that composites with Sn-F-O-Al et al., the surface appears as a accumulation of spherical particles, the crystallinity of conversion coating is better than uncoated sample obviously, the corrosion resistance has improved too.

High silicate zeolite ZSM-5 on the basis of SiO2–In2O3–NaOH with an organic structure forming agent tetrabutylammonium iodide (TBAI) was synthesized in the temperature range of T = 150–220°C, pH = 9-12, τ = 48-240 h. As initial components, silica gel MSKO containing 86% SiO2, tetrabutylammonium iodide (TBAI), chemically pure NaOH and metallic indium (In) were used which mixed by hydrothermal synthesis. At the end of the synthesis, the solid product was separated from the mother liquor, washed on the filter with distilled water from an excess of alkali and dried at 120 °C, calcined at 550 °C (16 h). The products of hydrothermal crystallization were determined by X-ray (RFA – on the device D2-Phaser "Bruker"), differential thermal (DTA- STA-449 F3 Jupiter NETZSCH), by X-ray diffraction (XRD of brand SRM-18) and infrared spectroscopy (IR on FTIR spectroscopy, Nicolefisio VSA) analysis methods. During the synthesis, it was experimentally established that at T = 200 °C; τ = 240 h; pH≈9-10 molar ratio of components 5.78SiO2∙0.058In2O3∙0.625Na2O∙0.11H2O∙0.95 ((C4H9) 4NJ) – MFI-type zeolite is crystallized. When comparing XRF data with literature data, they were referred to a type zeolite of ZSM-5 differing in high degree of crystallinity. The following chemical composition of the synthesized zeolite (wt.%) was established by the X-ray diffraction (SRM-18) method: SiO2 – 94.01; In2O3 – 4.92; Na2O – 1.06 corresponding to the formula 0.96Na2O:In2O3:88SiO2:10H2O.Forcitation:Samedov Kh.R., Mamedova U.A., Ragimov K.G., Jabbarova Z.A.

To meet the industrial needs for SSZ-13, variable sizes of SSZ-13 with different Si/Al ratios were firstly obtained by conventional hydrothermal synthesis using the seed method. Using a set of characterizations, like X-ray fluorescence (XRF), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the physicochemical structure and size distribution could be traced. After the specific Si/Al ratio of SSZ-13 zeolites was optimized, synthesized by changing the amounts of structure-directing agents (SDAs) and NaOH, the obtained SSZ-13 showed a high degree of crystallinity. With the limitation of the pH values, the variation of the alkalinity and water content was not helpful to generate different grain sizes of SSZ-13 materials. With the help of ground seed, the various grain sizes of SSZ-13s from 0.4 to 4 μm had a similar degree of crystallinity and size distribution. Moreover, due to the identical intensity of the Al peak in the NMR results, the different grain sizes of SSZ-13s had the same acidity. Our study revealed that using the seed method was an easy and efficient way to synthesize SSZ-13s with different sizes.

AZ31 magnesium alloy samples were compressed to different strains at room temperature and examined through the optical microscope, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electronic microscope. The results show that the produced twins were mainly the {102} type, and then the {101} type and {102}-{101} type. The size and amount of the twins increased with the strains growth, and after the saturation of twins in the grains the samples fractured. The compressed texture with the basal planes perpendicular to the compression direction also become stronger with strain increase. The {102} twinning deformation played an important role in changing the microstructure and properties of the magnesium alloy at room temperature.

Magnesium alloy has been considered as a revolutionary biodegradable material, but the fast degradation limits its development. A permanganate conversion coating for AZ31B magnesium alloy prepared, in order to improve its anti-corrosion property. The morphology and composition of the coating were characterized with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy dispersion spectroscopy (EDS), which showed that the coating was 40-170μm in thickness, with net-like micro-cracks, and was tightly combined with AZ31B magnesium alloy matrix. The main compositions of the coating were Mg and a series of oxides of Mn. Observed by the tests of electrochemical and immersion,the corrosion resistance of AZ31B magnesium alloy can be improved significantly through the permanganate conversion treatment
