Slip Deformation

The stress-induced martensitic transformation and slip deformation behavior were investigated by the compression test with anin-situobservation in a Ti-6Mo-10Al (mol %) alloy single crystal. Owing to the stress-induced martensitic transformation from the parent β phase to the α′′ martensite phase, the single crystal of α′′ martensite without internal twinnings was successfully obtained at room temperature. By further compression, the slip deformation occurred in the single crystal of α′′ martensite. The operated slip system in the α′′ martensite was analyzed by the two face trace analyses, and the slip direction was determined to be []o.

The deformation behavior of the Γ (gamma) phase in the Fe-Zn system has been investigated via room-temperature compression tests of single-crystal micropillar specimens fabricated by the focused ion beam method. Trace analysis of slip lines indicates that {110} slip occurs for the specimens investigated in the present study. Although the slip direction has not been uniquely determined, the slip direction might be <111> in consideration of the crystal structure of the Γ phase (bcc).

An crystal-growth technique for single crystal x-ray structure analysis of high-pressure forms of hydrogen-bonded crystals is proposed. We used alcohol mixture (methanol: ethanol = 4:1 in volumetric ratio), which is a widely used pressure transmitting medium, inhibiting the nucleation and growth of unwanted crystals. In this paper, two kinds of single crystals which have not been obtained using a conventional experimental technique were obtained using this technique: ice VI at 1.99 GPa and MgCl<sub>2</sub>·7H<sub>2</sub>O at 2.50 GPa at room temperature. Here we first report the crystal structure of MgCl2·7H2O. This technique simultaneously meets the requirement of hydrostaticity for high-pressure experiments and has feasibility for further in-situ measurements.

TiNbSn alloy has high specific strength, low modulus of elasticity, excellent corrosion resistance, no side effects, such as toxic and exhibits shape memory effects after appropriate technical processing. This alloy may substitute as NiTi shape memory alloy to become the new generation of biological materials. It has been reported the studies of this alloy, such as the component and proportion, processing technology, mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. Based on the previous research, the bio-metal material, Ti-10Nb-5Sn alloy was heated and cooled repeatedly in a heater system located in TEM chamber and, at the same time, was observed in situ using a high resolution transmission electron microscope to study the memory property of the alloy and the mechanism of the transformation between austenite β and martensite phase. The results show that, during heating stage from 295K to 400K, the martensite began to dissolve at 355K, and the martensite disappeared completely at 385K, meanwhile, the austenite was created. During cooling stage from 400K to 295K, the martensite begins to take shape at 353K and the transformation was completed at 333K. The alloy can memory the room and high temperature structures, showing two-way memory functions. The high-temperature austenite of Ti-10Nb-5Sn alloy shows body-centered cubic β phase with the unit cell parameter a=0.3283nm; the martensite at room temperature shows orthorhombic NbTi4 phase (M) with the unit cell parameters a=0.3152nm, b=0.4854nm, c=0.4642nm. The orientation relationship between M phase and β phase is , , , , and . The crystal plane , as the habit plane, transforms into during the transformation from β to M phases. The martensite transformation mechanism is that the and transform to and through the tiny migration of atoms.

ABSTRACTTiNi shape memory alloy (SMA) has potential applications for nuclear reactors and its phase stability under irradiation is becoming an important topic. Some irradiation-induced diffusion-dependent phase transformations, such as amorphization, have been reported before. In the present work, the behavior of diffusion-independent phase transformation in TiNi SMA was studied by electron irradiation at room temperature. The effect of irradiation on the martensitic transformation of TiNi shape memory alloys was studied by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) with in-situ observation and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The results of TEM and DSC measurements show that the microstructure of samples is R phase at room temperature. Electron irradiations were carried out using several different TEM with accelerating voltage of 200 kV, 300 kV, 400 kV and 1000 kV. Also the accelerating voltage in the same TEM was changed to investigate the critical voltage for the effect of irradiation on phase transformation. It was found that a phase transformation occurred under electron irradiation above 320 kV, but never appeared at 300 kV or lower accelerating voltage. Such phase transformation took place in a few seconds of irradiation and was independent of atom diffusion. The mechanism of Electron-irradiation-induced the martensitic transformation due to displacements of atoms from their lattice sites produced by the accelerated electrons.

This report presents the results of a study on the preparation of iron alkoxide complexes chelated by diiminopyridine ligands and their role in the room temperature polymerization of rac-lactide. Reaction of N,N′-(p-R-C6H4CH2)2-diiminopyridines (R = H (1), F (2)) with FeX2 (X = Cl, Br) yielded the homoleptic complexes [(1)2Fe][FeX4] or [(2)2Fe][FeX4], respectively. Treating the latter with Na[BPh4] afforded the anion exchange product [(2)2Fe][BPh4]2, which was characterized by 1H NMR and absorption spectroscopy, combustion analysis, and single crystal X-ray diffraction. Various attempts to grow crystals of [(1)2Fe][FeX4] and [(2)2Fe][FeX4] culminated in the isolation of single crystals of [(2)2Fe][Cl6Fe2O] that was characterized by X-ray diffraction. Attempted synthesis of well-defined, mononuclear alkoxide derivatives from [(1)2Fe]2+ or [(2)2Fe]2+ gave mostly intractable products, but in one case we obtained the crystallographically characterized sodium iron cluster Na4Fe2(OC6H4F)8(THF)2. An aryloxide derivative proved accessible by reaction of NaOC6H4F with the mono-ligand precursor LFeCl2 (L = N,N′-dimesityl-diiminopyridine), but characterization of LFe(OC6H4F)2 was limited to a single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, owing to unsuccessful attempts at isolating pure samples. The difficulties encountered in the isolation of pure alkoxide derivatives prompted us to use in-situ generated LFe(OEt)2 for studying the polymerization of rac-lactide. This system was found to be moderately active at room temperature and with a slight preference for the formation of a heterotactic polymer (Pr = 0.54–0.65). Large polydispersities of 1.5–2.0 indicated the presence of transesterification side-reactions, which were confirmed by the presence of peaks with m/z = n 144 + M(EtOH) + M(Na+) and m/z = (n + 0.5) 144 + M(EtOH) + M(Na+) in MALDI-MS.

AbstractThe TEM weak-beam technique has been used to investigate the behavior of dissociated superlattice dislocation in Ni3Al single crystal as a function of temperature. The observed dislocation with the Burgers vector of [110] partly dissociated on the (001) plane forming Kear-Wilsdorf (KW) lock. The dissociated pair did not indicate significant variation of separation in the temperature range from room temperature to 773K. but turned to form a jog at 773K. At 898K, which is near the peak temperature, the dissociated segment constricted completely. The experimental observations are discussed.
