Solidification structures and shape memory characteristics of Ni50Ti36Hf14(at.%) alloy ribbons prepared by melt spinning were investigated by means of differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction. In these experiments particular attention has been paid to change the velocity of cooling wheel from 20 to 40 m/s. Then the cooling rates of ribbons were controlled. The effect of this cooling rate on solidification structures and martensitic transformation behaviors is discussed. When the ribbon is produced at a wheel velocity of 40 m/s in melt spinning, the degree of supercooling becomes high because of its thinner thickness.

ABSTRACTRibbons of the Ni-44.8wt%Ti shape memory alloy are prepared through the melt spinning technique. The study is focused on investigating the effect of the rapid solidification and grain size at characteristic start martensitic (Ms), final martensitic (Mf), start austenite (As) and final austenite (Af) transformation temperatures. Changes on martensitic transformation temperatures in Ti45Ni55 melt spun ribbons are observed as grain size is reduced. Results of optical microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) are used to associate grain size with transformation temperatures.

The influences of Gd concentration on martensitic transformation and magnetic properties of NiMnIn alloys were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) , vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and etc. It is Observed through the experiment: the addition of Gd enhances martensite transition temperature;X-ray diffraction analysis of experimental alloys is revealed that to the mixture is martensite and austenite at room temperature; content of Gd is not proportional to the improvement of magnetic property.

The structure and thermal behavior are key factors that influence the functional response of Ni–Mn–Sn alloys. The present study reports the production as well as the structure and thermal analysis of melt-spun (solidification rate: 40 ms−1) Ni50 Mn50−xSnx (x = 10, 11, 12 and 13 at.%) alloys. X-ray diffraction measurements were performed at room temperature. The austenite state has an L21 structure, whereas the structure of the martensite is 7M or 10M (depending on the Sn/Mn percentage). Furthermore, the structural martensitic transformation was detected by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). As expected, upon increasing the Sn content, the characteristic temperatures also increase. The same tendency is detected in the thermodynamic parameters (entropy and enthalpy). The e/a control allows the development production of alloys with a transformation close to room temperature.

Three layers polyethylene (3PE) anti-corrosion coating was widely used in oil or gas transmission pipelines in the world. Special HDPE (SHDPE) was used in the outer layer of 3PE coating, which is very important to the performance of the whole coating system. However, till to now fewer study about SHDPE crystallization have been reported. In this paper, the crystallization characteristic of SHDPE and 3PE coating were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD), modulated differential scanning calorimetry (MDSC). The results showed that, the crystallinity and lamella thickness of SHDPE were decreased with the increase of cooling rate in fabrication process. Middle adhesion layer of 3PE coating accelerated nucleation and improved the crystallinity of the near zone PE layer. The skin region of 3PE coating had lowest crystallinity due to the highest cooling rate, and the crystallinity was increased from skin to core region of 3PE coating.

In the present work, the microstructure and its effect on the magnetic, magnetocaloric, and magnetoelastic properties of the Tb55Co30Fe15 melt-spun ribbon were investigated. The ribbon exhibits typical amorphous characteristics in its X-ray diffraction examination and differential scanning calorimetry measurement. However, the magnetic properties of the ribbon indicate that the ribbon is inhomogeneous in the nanoscale, as ascertained by a high-resolution electron microscope. Compared to the Tb55Co45 amorphous alloy, the Tb55Co30Fe15 ribbon shows poor magnetocaloric properties but outstanding magnetostriction. A rather high value of reversible magnetostriction up to 788 ppm under 5 T was obtained. The mechanism for the formation of nanoparticles and its effect on the magnetocaloric and magnetostrictive properties were investigated.

Conventionally cast Fe-Al-C alloys are extremely brittle containing combinations of ferrite, carbide and other phases. Rapid solidification has the potential of altering the microstructure to subsequently change the resulting mechanical properties. An apparent conflict exist concerning the effect of rapid solidification on the resulting microstructure of these alloys. Inoue and co-workers, using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and electron diffraction analyses, reported the presence of several non-equilibrium phases including austenite (fcc - γ) and ordered austenite (Ll2-γ') structures on alloys containing 1.7 to 2.1 C and 6 to 12 Al in weight % (w/o) on melt spun ribbons 30 μm in thickness. Han and Choo, using x-ray diffraction analysis on 30-48 μm thick melt spun ribbons concluded that this ordered fee phase is rather an austenitic phase in which phase decomposition accompanied by sideband phenomenon had occured.Single roller melt spinning technique was used to make ribbons 35-70 μm thick and 0.5-5 mm wide. X-ray diffration analysis showed single phase austenite for samples 2-6 w/o AI and 2 w/o C. Samples with 8-10 w/o AI and 2 w/o C also showed several superlattice lines in addition to the fundamental fcc peaks.

The super-tough bio-based nylon was prepared by melt extrusion. In order to improve the compatibility between bio-based nylon and elastomer, the elastomer POE was grafted with maleic anhydride. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) were used to study the compatibility and micro-distribution between super-tough bio-based nylon and toughened elastomers. The results of mechanical strength experiments show that the 20% content of POE-g-MAH has the best toughening effect. After toughening, the toughness of the super-tough nylon was significantly improved. The notched impact strength was 88 kJ/m2 increasing by 1700%, which was in line with the industrial super-tough nylon. X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) were used to study the crystallization behavior of bio-based PA56, and the effect of bio-based PA56 with high crystallinity on mechanical properties was analyzed from the microstructure.

4-Cyano-1,1'-biphenyl derivatives bearing ω-hydroxyalkyl substituents were reacted with methyl 3-chloro-3-oxopropionate or cyanoacetic acid, giving liquid-crystalline linear malonates and cyanoacetates. These compounds formed monotropic nematic phases at 62 °C down to ambient temperature upon cooling from the isotropic liquid. The mesomorphic properties were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, polarizing optical microscopy and X-ray diffraction (WAXS).
