The solutesegregation in the composite at different cooling rates was studied. The results indicate that theprimary crystal of Al-4.5Cu alloy nucleates and grows in the interstice between fibers. The fibersurface cannot serve as site for the heterogeneous nucleation of a primary dendrite. There exists anincreasing Cu concentration gradient from the center of the interstice between fibers to theinterface or the grain boundaries. There are the eutectic phases around the fibers. The solutesegregation in the matrix increases with the cooling rate rising. The amount of eutectic phasesfollowed by imbalance crystalline can be numerically calculated with Clyne-Kurz formula.展开更多

The curves of pH-rare earth element adsorption were very well fitted to the equation: InD =a+b pH. The selectivity of RE (rare earth element) ions by the samples decreased in the following order: Ce> RE> La> Y, but the sequences were: La> Ce> Y on kaolinite and Y> La on amorphous iron oxide. Since the trivalent RE ions existed in the form of RE(OH)2+ in the solutions from pH < 5.45 to 7.0, the ratio of H+ displaced to RE3+ adsorbed in micromole was proposed to be about 2. The specific adsorption mechanism for RE was proposed to be that the RE ions complexed with oxide surface and the ion-surface complex of Ce3+ promoted oxidization on Mn hydroxide.展开更多

It is found that the ultimate tensile strength, yield strength and elongationof the AM50 alloy at elevated temperatures up to 200 deg C increase with an addition of Nd.Generally, the most significant improvement in the tensile properties is attained at 100 deg C. Thepresence of Mg12Nd is proved by X-ray diffraction. Microstructural observations reveal that theaddition of Nd can lead to the dispersion-strengthening. Due to the presence of Mg12Nd, the slidingof grain boundaries is restrained and the strength of the alloy is enhanced. It can be seen from thetensile fractographs that the fracture surfaces exhibit the mixed fracture characteristics, andless brittle fracture is observed with increasing the temperature. Quasi-cleavage fracture isthought as the main fracture mode. TEM observations expose the formation of dislocation network,slip lines and dislocation pile-ups.展开更多

Analytical results indicated that soil cobalt existed in both two oxidation states, i. e. , di-and tri-valent cobalt. Extractable di-valent cobalt in 60 soil samples collected from various soils in China ranged from 0.02 ppm to 3.54 ppm, with the mean of 0.62 ppm, and extractable tri-valent cobalt from 0.04 ppm to 27.65 ppm, with the mean of 2.93 ppm.展开更多

A preliminary description is provided for Hesslandona sp. (Phosphatocopida, Crustacea, Arthro-poda) and Skara sp. (Skaracarida, Crustaceam, Arthropoda). The scientific significance of Orsten-type preservation and prospects for future work on these fossils from Hunan are outlined.展开更多
