A series of Al-6.3Zn-2.3Mg-2.3Cu-0.15Zr alloys with different reduce of Zn, Mg, Cu and Zr were prepared by ingot-metallurgy processing. Effects of homogenization on the microstructure and properties of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-Zr aluminium alloy were respectively studied by means of metallographic microscopy, electrical conductivity test, differential thermal analysis and X-ray diffraction phase analysis. The results indicated that the overheating temperature of these alloys is between 473°C and 477°C, and there was little difference to the overheating temperature of 7050 alloy. During homogenization process, using three kinds of developed heat treatment of homogenization of 7050 alloy, with the rising of homogenization temperature and the complication of the homogenization heat treatment, the electrical conductivity decreased and hardness gradually increased. The three-step homogenization has a better effect than single homogenization, as it can completely eliminate the endothermic peak of non-equilibrium phases. Many MgZn2 phases are present in the ingot with three-step homogenization and slow cooling.

This work investigated the synthesis of α-alumina using dissolution and re-precipitation of aluminum nitrate and microwave heating. The synthesized powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis (TGA and DTA) and surface are by BET. The dissolution process was carried out using acid solution and heat treatment. Results depicted the efficiency of the process to accelerating the synthesis of alpha alumina. The results showed that the powders have the microwave structure of α-alumina with specific areas ranging between 3 and 15m2/g and pore diameters between 190 to 485nm.

Taking Attapulgite Clay(ATP) as a carrier, TiO2/ATP precursor was prepared by acid sol-gel method, and then made its composite under different heat-treatment conditions. The structures, dimensions, compositions of the composite are characterized by X-Ray diffraction, transmission electron microscope, thermogravimetric-differential thermal analysis and spectroscopic analysis measurements, respectively. the results show that TiO2/ATP composite increase the crystal transition temperature of TiO2, rutile TiO2emerge in the composite until 800°C, ATP lost its layer constructure and collapse at 850°C.

The microstructure evolution and properties of Al-matrix in homogenized 7A56 alloy were investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), electrical conductivity and hardness test. The second phases in as-cast 7A56 alloy consisted of AlZnMgCu, Al2Cu and Al7Cu2Fe. With the homogenization temperature increasing, more non-equilibrium phase AlZnMgCu was dissolved into Al-matrix. The diffusion of alloying elements from AlZnMgCu phase into Al-matrix leads to a decrease of electrical conductivity and an increase of hardness. The lattice constant of α-Al has an increases of 0.0019 Å, 0.0032 Å and 0.0053 Å after 380°C/24h,430°C/24h,and 470°C/24 h treatment,respectively.

The products obtained from MnO2–V2O5 mixtures at the ambient oxygen pressure and temperatures up to 900 °C were studied by means of thermal analysis and x-ray diffraction methods. The following phases were found to exist in equilibrium, depending on the composition: (I) Mn2O3–Mn2V2O7, (II) Mn2V2O7–MnV2O6, and (III) V2O5–solid solution of VO2 in MnV2O6. A phase diagram was obtained for the composition region III. The data are instructive for syntheses of manganese vanadates by thermal methods.

This work aims to identify the mechanisms of restoration occurring in Ti-6Al-4V during hot plastic deformation and subsequent heat treatment. The allotropic phase transformation that occurs during cooling distorts the interpretation of the restoration mechanisms taking place at high temperatures. Therefore, analysis of deformed samples by conventional microscopy have led to controversies in the interpretation of the main dynamic restoration mechanism. Additionally, static restoration of the microstructure can occur during slow cooling, modifying the microstructure. These facts were mainly the reasons why discontinuous dynamic recrystallization and/or dynamic recovery has been reported as the main dynamic restoration mechanism for Ti-6Al-4V. In this work, we use in-situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction combined with conventional microscopy to determine the dynamic and static mechanisms of restoration during and after deformation at different strain rates. The results show dynamic recovery as main mechanism of restoration during deformation in the β field, denoted by sub-grain formation and a misorientation dependency of the strain rate. After deformation, static recrystallization, grain growth, and coarsening of the β grains can be observed, especially at strain rates higher than 0.1s−1. It is also demonstrated that the nucleation of new grains can occur within the very first seconds of the isothermal heat treatment.

In this work, we investigated a novel Al-Mg-Si alloy, which was developed from an AA 6082, in order to considerably improve the yield and tensile strengths whilst retain excellent ductility. The new alloy possesses a higher content of Si than specified by AA 6082, and, in addition, it contains copper and zirconium. The alloy was characterized in the as-cast condition, after homogenization, extrusion, and T6 heat treatment using light microscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectrometry, X-ray diffraction, differential thermal analysis and tensile testing. After T6 temper, tensile strengths were around 490 MPa with more than 10% elongation at fracture. The microstructure consisted of small-grained Al-rich matrix with α-AlMnSi and Al3Zr dispersoids, and Q′-AlCuMgSi and β-Mg2Si-type precipitates.

Sebuah penelitian tentang sistem dispersi padat dari asiklovir dengan poloxamer 188 telah dilakukan formulasi dengan pencampuran secara fisika dengan rasio 1 : 1, 1 : 3, 1 : 5 dan dispersi padat 1 : 1, 1 : 3, 1 : 5 dan penggilingan 1:1 sebagai pembanding. Dispersi padat dibuat menggunakan metode pencairan (fusi), yang digabung dengan poloxamer 188 pada hotplate kemudian asiklovir dimasukkan ke dalam hasil poloxamer 188 lalu di kocok hingga membentuk masa homogen. Semua formula yang terbentuk termasuk asiklovir poloxamer 188 murni dianalisis karakterisasinya dengan Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA), X-ray Diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), dan Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), kemudian pengambilan dilakukan  (penentuan kadar) mengunakan spektrofotometer UV pada panjang gelombang 257,08 nm dan uji laju disolusi dengan aquadest bebas CO2 menggunakan metode dayung. Hasil pengambilan  (penentuan kadar) menunjukkan bahwa semua formula memenuhi persyaratan farmakope Amerika edisi 30 dan farmakope Indonesia edisi 4 yaitu 95-110%. Sedangkan hasil uji laju disolusi untuk campuran fisik 1: 1, dan dispersi padat 1: 1, dan penggilingan 1: 1 menunjukkan peningkatan yang nyata dibandingkan asiklovir murni. Hal ini juga dapat dilihat dari hasil perhitungan statistik  menggunakan analisis varian satu arah  SPSS 17.
