In this paper, X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and sintering process were used to characterize Cu-Fe compound powders milled for different times. The increment of defects and the change of granularity, grain size and crystal structure were discussed. Mechanical Alloying (MA) influence on the sintering of Cu-Fe compound powders was analyzed. The results showed that, the refinement of the powders and the increment of defects such as interface and dislocation induced the energy storage. The stored energy released in the sintering process, which reduced the activation energy of vacancy and the activation energy of diffusion. So the sintering temperature was reduced and the structure, strength and hardness of specimens were improved.

This work presents powder preparation and sintering experiments of a mixture diatomite-titania. X-ray diffraction, DTA, TGA as well as chemical and microstructural analyses were made. The sintering process was investigated as a function of sintering temperature and time, mass variation, linear shrinkage and activation energy. The results show that sintering of diatomite-titania could be described by a viscous flow mechanism.

The synthesis mechanism and microstructures of BaIn2O4 particles were analyzed by simultaneous thermogravimetry - differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Firstly, In(OH)3 and BaCO3 precursors were prepared by the co-precipitation method. Next, during the sintering process In(OH)3 initially decomposed into In2O3 and water, and then BaCO3 reacted with In2O3 to synthesize Ba4In6O13. Finally, Ba4In6O13 and In2O3 further reacted to form BaIn2O4. The obtained BaIn2O4 particles were in monoclinic structure and exhibited high crystal quality. The grains were tightly bound together and their boundaries became blurry. The grain sizes increased with increasing the sintering temperature.

This present work investigates the effects of sintering temperature on densification, mechanical properties and microstructure of Al-based alloy pressed by high-velocity compaction. The green samples were heated under the flow of high pure (99.99 wt%) N2. The heating rate was 4 °C/min before 315 °C. For reducing the residual stress, the samples were isothermally held for one h. Then, the specimens were respectively heated at the rate of 10 °C/min to the temperature between 540 °C and 700 °C, held for one h, and then furnace-cooled to the room temperature. Results indicate that when the sintered temperature was 640 °C, both the sintered density and mechanical properties was optimum. Differential Scanning Calorimetry, X-ray diffraction of sintered samples, Scanning Electron Microscopy, Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy, and Transmission Electron Microscope were used to analyse the microstructure and phases.

The formation of metal oxide-based hydroxysodalite by alkali-activation of kaolinite is studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD) study and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis. Different metal oxides (CoO, MgO, FeO and SiO2) were used to form the metal oxide-based hydroxysodalite. The transformation from kaolinite into hydroxysodalite is confirmed by XRD. In the thermodynamic study, the maximum peak temperatures for DSC curves at various heating rates were used to determine the activation energy (Ea) of the hydroxysodalite formation. With magnesium oxide and cobalt oxide, the formation process was found to be exothermic while it was endothermic with iron oxide.

The effect of milling time and sintering process on the dielectric properties of BaTiO3-based X9R ceramics was investigated. The characterization of the raw powders and the sintered ceramic was carried out by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The particle size distribution of the mixed powders was examined by Laser Particle Size Analyzer. The results shown that with the milling time extended, the Cruie Peak was depressed, or even disappeared. Moreover, with the rise of sintering temperature, the dielectric constant of the ceramics increased and the dielectric loss decreased gradually. Eventually, by milling for 11h and sintering at 1090°Cfor 2h, good dielectric properties were obtained, which were ε25°C≥ 2526, εr/εr25°C≤± 12% (–55~200°C), tanδ≤1.12% (25°C).

Mechanical alloying (MA) and subsequent solid sintering process was used to prepare the Pr-containing pseudobinary Tb0.7Pr0.3Fe1.80alloys. The structural and magnetoelastic properties were in comparative investigated by means of x-ray diffraction and a standard strain technique for sinter and composite samples.

Lithium hydride LiH is one of the attractive hydrogen storage materials, because it stores 12.7 mass% of H2. However, H2 desorption reaction occurs over 600 °C due to the large enthalpy change of H2 desorption Ho = 181 kJ/mol H2. The purpose of this work is to control the enthalpy change of LiH to much lower value by a mechanical alloying with Si, where the Li-Si alloy is thermodynamically more stable than Li. The alloy was synthesized from Li granule and Si powder by a mechanical alloying method. The H2 absorption and desorption properties were characterized by High-Pressure Differential Scanning Calorimetry and Thermogravimetry - Differential Thermal Analysis - Mass Spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction measurement. Pressure - Composition - Isotherm measurements were performed at 400, 450, and 500 °C to estimate the enthalpy change. From the results, it was confirmed that reversible H2 ab/desorption reactions of the Li-Si alloy were expressed as 7LiH + 3Si ↔ (3/7)Li12Si7 + (13/7)LiH + (18/7)H2 ↔ Li7Si3 + (7/2)H2 (theoretically 5.0 mass% H2) at 400 °C. From van’t Hoff plot obtained by the results of PCI measurements, the enthalpy change of the former reaction was estimated to be Ho = 103 kJ/mol H2, which is lower than that of LiH.

Porous hydroxyapatite (HAp) granules have been successfully fabricated from a HAp powder precursor and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) additive by a simple sintering process. The composition and microstructures of the HAp were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped with an energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectrometer. The effects of sintering temperature and PVA/HAp mass ratios on color, water stability, morphology, and chemical composition of HAp are discussed. Optimum conditions for the fabrication of HAp granules were found to be a PVA/HAp mass ratio of 3/20 and a sintering temperature of 600°C for 4 h. Accordingly, the obtained HAp is white in color, is in the granular form with a size of about 2 × 10 mm, and has a specific surface area of 70.6 m2/g. The adsorption of Pb2+ onto the as-prepared HAp granules was carried out in aqueous solution by varying the pH, the adsorbent dose, the initial concentration of Pb2+, and the contact time. The results of adsorption stoichiometry of Pb2+ on the HAp granule adsorbent were fitted to the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model (R2 = 0.99). The adsorption capacity and removal efficiency of the HAp granule adsorbent for Pb2+ under optimal conditions were found to be 7.99 mg/g and 95.92%, respectively. The adsorption process obeyed a pseudo-second-order kinetic model with R2∼1. The porous HAp granules studied in this work showed potential for the removal of Pb2+ from industrial wastewater.

A mixture of pure Mg and Si powders with an atomic ratio 2:1 has been subjected to mechanical alloying (MA) at room temperature to prepare the Mg2Si thermoelectric material. Mg2Si intermetallic compound with a grain size of 50 nm can be obtained by MA of Mg66.7Si33.3 powders for 60 hours and subsequently annealed at 620 °C. Consolidation of the MA powders was performed in a spark plasma sintering (SPS) machine using graphite dies up to 800–900 °C under 50 MPa. The shrinkage of consolidated samples during SPS was significant at about 250 °C and 620 °C. X-ray diffraction data shows that the SPS compact from 60 h MA powders consolidated up to 800 °C consists of only nanocrystalline Mg2Si compound with a grain size of 100 nm.

The effectiveness of different routes of equal channel angular pressing (A, Bc, and C) is studied for commercially pure copper. The stored energy and the activation energy of recrystallization for the deformed samples were quantified using differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction line profile analysis. Results of the study revealed that the dislocation density and the stored energy are higher in the case of route Bc deformed sample. The activation energy for recrystallization is lower for route Bc.
