This study reports the results of investigation on the main and interaction effects of grit type, aging temperature, and aging time on particle size of ground natural rubber/zeolite (GNR/Z) composite powder using general factorial design of experiment. GNR/Z composite powder produced by mechanical grinding is porous, like an aggregated chain structure. These aggregates exist in clusters of irregular shape. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) shows that the effects of aging temperature and aging time depend on the particle size range. GNR/Z composite powder with large particle size is produced when aging is done at low temperature and short time due to high resistance of rubber to oxidation. On the other hand, GNR/Z composite powder with small particle size is produced when aging is done at low or high temperature and longer aging time. Low temperature condition offers high O2 concentration available to oxidize rubber while high temperature condition leads to more chain scissions due to higher oxidation rate.

A low operating temperature is one of the concerns in commercialising solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) as a portable power source. The aim of this research is to develop a new cathode material, barium strontium cobalt ferrite–samarium doped ceria (BSCF-SDC) added with argentum (Ag) for low-temperature SOFCs (LT-SOFCs). The composite powder was prepared through high-energy ball milling at 550 rpm for 2 h with a BSCF:SDC powder ratio of 50:50. The composite powder was calcined at 950 °C for 2 h and then mixed with Ag (1wt%, 3wt% and 5wt%) via dry milling at 150 rpm. The phase stability of the resulting samples was examined by X-ray diffractometry, and powder particle sizes were determined by using a Zeta-Sizer Nano ZS. The thermal stability of each sample was determined on the basis of thermal expansion coefficients (TECs), and electrochemical characteristics were determined through electrochemical impedance spectroscopy to investigate the performance of BSCF-SDC-Ag in LT-SOFCs (400–600 °C). Phase analysis demonstrated no impurity phases existed. Particle size analysis revealed that increment in Ag content affect the particle size of BSCF-SDCC. TEC analysis demonstrated that BSCF-SDC-Ag1% has a mismatch value of 16.39%, which is within the acceptable TEC range of 15%–20%. BSCF-SDC-Ag1% showed a maximum conductivity of 39.37Scm-1 at 600 °C.

Abstract Carbon black, regardless of type, particle size, structure, and physical properties imparted, does not affect the rate or degree of checking or cracking in natural-rubber or low-temperature polymer compounds when subjected to weather or ozone exposure. Natural rubber will withstand much longer periods of exposure than the synthetic polymer studied. A pronounced degree of ozone and weather cracking and checking will result if no antioxidant is compounded into the synthetic polymer. An MAF black-synthetic polymer compound may be substantially improved in its resistance to ozone and weather resistance by selection and application of the proper antichecking ingredients.

To study the effect of aging SBS modified asphalt on the performance of asphalt pavement, aging at various times and temperatures was conducted with thin film oven, and then tests were made about the penetration, softening point, ductility, viscosity, toughness, and fluorescence microscopy of modified asphalt with different aging levels. The results show that, with the increasing of aging time, the penetration and ductility of modified asphalt decrease while its softening point and viscosity increase, and the variation trend of the toughness and tenacity is related to the aging temperature; the aging dynamic model with viscosity as parameter can well characterize the aging process of modified asphalt; at microlevel, with the decreasing of SBS particle size, the uniformity of particle size is better. Analysis of macroscopic properties, microscopic characteristics, and significance shows that the SBS particle area ratio has a significant correlation with tenacity as the aging temperature changes. When the aging temperature is 163°C, the SBS particle area ratio still has a significant correlation with tenacity as the aging time changes.

Combustion synthesis of titanium diboride(TiB2) from titanium(Ti) and boron(B) powders was studied by theoretical calculation and experimental analysis. In high temperature range or in low temperature range, the calculated activation energies are 140KJ/mol or 355KJ/mol respectively, which is described by a change from dissolution-precipitation controlled process to diffusion-controlled process. With the increase of particle size of the raw materials, combustion temperature and propagating rate will both reduce. The propagating rate decreases with the addition of diluents. Further increase of diluents may result in a stop of the combustion wave halfway or even a failure of ignition.

The intermetallic compounds (IMCs) layer formed between Sn-0.7Cu-1.0wt.%Si3N4(SC-1.0SN) solder and Cu-substrate were investigated through isothermal solid-state aging. The SC-1.0SN/Cu solder joints were aged at 50°C and 150°C for 24h, 240h, 480h and 720h duration after reflow. The as-soldered joint IMC formed at interface was Cu6Sn5. In addition, only Cu6Sn5layer was observed at the interface of the samples aged at low temperature of 50°C although the aging duration was prolonged up to 720h and has begun to increase in thickness. On the other hand, the Cu3Sn layer was clearly observed in the sample of aged at 150°C up to 240h. However, at least no voids were vividly observed in the 50°C aged samples, while kirkendall voids were clearly found in Cu3Sn layer of samples aged at 150°C up to 480h of aging time will be discussed further.

By pretreatment of Pt/CeO2catalysts with high temperature reduction and subsequent low temperature reoxidation, the concentration of Ce3+species in the Pt/CeO2catalysts could be adjusted, while at the same time the Pt particle size remained constant. Thus the pure effect of Ce3+/Ce4+couples on the selective hydrogenation of crotonaldehdye could be explored. The investigation provided direct proofs supporting that Ce3+species favors the crotyl alcohol selectivity.

Zeolite are used as adsorbent, catalyst and ionexchang material. But it limited to extend the usage of the zeolite since almost zeolite synthesized by hydrothermal method. The purpose of this study was to synthesis zeolite by calcination at high temperature due to extend the application of zeolite, as ceramics process. The effect of aging temperature and time, crystallization temperature on the synthesis of zeolite has been studied. Aging was performed at room temperature~70°C during 0~3days. After aging, zeolite precursor sinter for 1 hours at 300, 400, 500°C in furnace. The resulting materials were characterized by XRD, TG, SEM When the aging time is less than 1 day zeolite was not synthesized. But zeolite A obtained from precursor of aging time is more than 1 day at all firing temperature. As a result the aging time and aging temperature is increased, the zeolite synthesis time is decreased. Therefore aging is benefit process on synthesis of zeolite at high temperature.

The composite materials TiN/3Y-TZP, 3Y-TZP doped by TiN with different contents and particle sizes, were fabricated through the same hot-pressing techniques. Compared with 3Y-TZP, the low temperature degradation resistance of TiN/3Y-TZP aged at the temperature from 170°C to 350°C in air for 50 h was investigated in virtue of XRD and SEM in the experiment. For TiN/3Y-TZP and 3Y-TZP, the maximum aging rate all occurs at 220°C. The addition of TiN can availably improve the low temperature degradation resistance of 3Y-TZP at different aging temperatures, but cannot change the relationship between the aging rate and the aging temperature. For TiN/3Y-TZP, the matrix particle size is the key factor responsible for its low temperature degradation resistance.

Abstract Magnesium and zinc ions play various key roles in the human body, being involved, among others, in skeletal development and wound healing. Zinc is also known to have antimicrobial properties. While low concentrations can stimulate cells in vitro, high concentrations of magnesium or zinc introduced into bioactive glasses significantly reduce glass degradation and ion release and inhibit apatite precipitation. On the other hand, magnesium and zinc ions improve the high temperature processing of bioactive glasses, even when present at low concentrations only. Results here show that by substituting small amounts of Mg or Zn for Ca, ion release remains high enough to allow for apatite precipitation. In addition, magnesium and zinc containing bioactive glasses are shown to be very susceptible to changes in particle size and relative surface area. For a given magnesium or zinc content in the glass, ion release and apatite formation can be enhanced dramatically by reducing the particle size, reaching comparable levels as Bioglass 45S5 of the same particle size range. Taken together, these findings suggest that when introducing these ions into bioactive glasses, ideally low Mg or Zn for Ca substitution as well as small particle sizes are used. This way, bioactive glasses combining good high temperature processing with fast ion release and apatite precipitation can be obtained, providing the potential additional benefit of releasing magnesium or zinc ions in therapeutic concentrations.
