A gas-solid reaction method was adopted in this work to explore the influence of SO2 gas on the composition and structure of secondary sintering cement clinker. In this process, the Portland cement clinker was secondarily sintered at different temperatures and a mixed gas mixed with SO2 was introduced simultaneously in a tube furnace. X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) combined with rietveld refinement was used to determine the phase composition of the cement clinker and the corresponding phase content. The experimental results showed that the increase in temperature conduced to increasing the content of SO3 solid solution, C2S and CaO, but decreasing the C3S content. Moreover, as the ratio of SO3/MgO (by mass) increases, the content of M1-type alite also increased. And the result of hydration heat release was positively correlated with the content of alite in the clinker. If the content of alite was low, the heat flow was low, as well as the cumulative heat, and vice versa.

Through testing the amount of the free lime and the Loss ignition, the clinker formation rate, the reaction-rate constant (K) and the activation energy (Ea) were calculated according to the Gentling equation and Arrhenius equation. The effects of CaF2on the formation kinetics of Portland cement clinker were investigated by analyzing theKandEa. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron Microscope (SEM) were used to characterize the phase composition and the morphology of the resulting samples. The results show that the silicate minerals formation is promoted when a proper amount of CaF2is doped into the raw meal. TheKincreased from 0.7450 ×10-5s-1to 7.1588 ×10-5s-1and theEadecreased from 386 kJ/mol to 122 kJ/mol when the amount of CaF2increased from 0.0% to 2.0% in mass. However, the results were reversed at the amount of CaF2exceeding 2%.

The existence of glass or amorphous component in Portland cement clinker has been questioned for a long time. However, besides the crystalline phases, there are reports in the literature of noncrystalline material in cement clinker, which is considered to be the residue of the melt that has failed to crystallize. Absolute phase abundances were determined in this study by Rietveld refinements with laboratory X-ray data, using both internal and external phase composition standards. The results clearly demonstrate the existence of an amorphous component in Portland cement clinker. The presence of an amorphous component was also apparent from diffraction data for clinker from which the silicate phases had been chemically removed, using both laboratory X-ray and synchrotron radiation patterns.

Trivalent thulium ions (Tm3+) doped GdAlO3 (Gd1-xTmxAlO3) phosphors which show a blue luminescence of high color purity have been synthesized by using solid-state reaction method starting from nanosized powders. X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements were used to analyze the phase transformations that take place during the preparation of the phosphors. The morphologies of the powders calcined at different temperatures were studied by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The luminescence properties of the compounds were investigated. Pure phase of orthorhombic type GdAlO3 (GAP) was yielded by calcining the phosphors at 1200°C for 8 h. The PL spectra showed representative Tm3+ emission. The strong band centered at ~488 nm and the weak one centered at 697 nm were attributed to the 1D2-3F4 and 1G4-3F4 transitions of Tm3+, respectively. The quenching concentration of Tm3+ was estimated to be ~0.75at.% (x=0.0075), for which can be ascribed to the exchange interactions. The decay curve was fitted to be a single exponent and the estimated fluorescent lifetime of the GdAlO3:Tm3+ phosphor was 1.73±0.08 ms.

A hybrid magnetron sputtering/pulsed laser deposition process was used to grow nanocrystalline yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) embedded in an amorphous YSZ/metal matrix. This nanocomposite design reduced friction and improved the toughness of YSZ. Films containing both silver and molybdenum exhibited friction coefficients between 0.2 and 0.4 in air (40% relative humidity) against silicon nitride balls at temperatures between 25° C and 700 °C. Additional solid lubricants reduced the friction coefficient to <0.2 for over 10000 cycles at all temperatures. A multilayer film architecture was developed to further enhance the lifetime of the adaptive coatings. Electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were used to correlate adaptive behavior at different temperatures to the composition and structure of the films.

Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (NBT) ceramics were synthesized by conventional solid state reaction method. Structural and dielectric properties of these ceramics were investigated. Crystalline phase of sintered ceramics was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The Rietveld refinement of powder X-ray diffraction revealed that the prepared ceramics exhibit the rhombohedral space group R3c. Dielectric properties of Na0.5Bi0. analyzer.5TiO3 (NBT) ceramics were studied at different temperatures in a wide frequency range using impedance
