A simultaneous thermal analyzer was employed to simulate the heating process of Si-containing steel in industrial reheating furnaces. The oxidation gas mixtures were introduced from the commencement of heating. The results show that the oxidizing rate remains constant in the isothermal holding process at high temperatures; therefore, the mass change versus time presents a linear law. A linear relation also exists between the oxidizing rate and the oxygen content. Using the linear regression equation, the oxidation rate at different oxygen contents can be predicted. In addition, the relationship between the total mass gain and the oxygen content is linear; thus, the total mass gain at oxygen contents between 0.5 vol%–4.0 vol% can be determined. These results enrich the theoretical studies of the oxidation process in Si-containing steels.展开更多

Compared with the oxidation heat transferred to the electrolyte through anodic film, the heat transferred to the coolant through aluminum substrate is more beneficial to the growth of anodic film. The film forming speed, film thickness, density and hardness are significantly increased as the degree of undercooling of the coolant increases. The degree of undercooling of the coolant, which is necessary for the growth of anodic film, is related to the degree of undercooling of the electrolyte, thickness of aluminum substrate, thickness of anodic film, natural parameters of bubble covering and current density. The microstructure and performance of the oxidation film could be controlled by the temperature of the coolant.展开更多

More recently, the involvement of heat stress in inducing oxidative stress has received much interest. Oxidative stress is defined as the presence of reactive species in excess of the available antioxidant capacity of animal cells. Reactive species can modify several biologically cellular macromolecules and can interfere with cell signaling pathways. Furthermore, during the last decade, there has been an ever-increasing interest in the use of a wide array of natural feed-delivered phytochemicals that have potential antioxidant properties for poultry. In light of this, the current review aims to（1） summarize the mechanisms through which heat stress triggers excessive superoxide radical production in the mitochondrion and progresses into oxidative stress,（2） illustrate that this pathophysiology is dependent on the intensity and duration of heat stress,（3） present different nutritional strategies for mitigation of mitochondrial dysfunction, with particular focus on antioxidant phytochemicals.Oxidative stress that occurs with heat exposure can be manifest in all parts of the body; however, mitochondrial dysfunction underlies oxidative stress. In the initial phase of acute heat stress, mitochondrial substrate oxidation and electron transport chain activity are increased resulting in excessive superoxide production. During the later stage of acute heat stress, down-regulation of avian uncoupling protein worsens the oxidative stress situation causing mitochondrial dysfunction and tissue damage. Typically, antioxidant enzyme activities are upregulated. Chronic heat stress, however, leads to downsizing of mitochondrial metabolic oxidative capacity, up-regulation of avian uncoupling protein, a clear alteration in the pattern of antioxidant enzyme activities, and depletion of antioxidant reserves.Some phytochemicals, such as various types of flavonoids and related compounds, were shown to be beneficial in chronic heat-stressed poultry, but were less or not effective in non-heat-stressed counterparts. This supports the contention that antioxidant phytochemicals have potential under challenging conditions. Though substantial progress has been made in our understanding of the association between heat stress and oxidative stress, the means by which phytochemicals can alleviate oxidative stress have been sparsely explored.展开更多

The main objective of this work was to study nanostructured coatings of ceramic materials. For this purpose, the amount of precursor materials in the electrolyte was a variable parameter. Furthermore, the salt of TiCl4/RuCl3·xH2 O/Ce（NO3）3·6 H2 O with different amounts, hydrogen peroxide, methanol, and distilled water were used as an aqueousunaqueous bath. In addition, the coated samples were put to heat at 300, 450, 650, and 850℃ in an electric furnace for1 h. The crystalline phase of the coating was characterized by X-ray diffraction（XRD）. The chemical composition and microstructure of the coating were studied using energydispersive spectroscopy（EDS） and scanning electron microscopy analysis（SEM）. Moreover, the electrochemical measurement of Ti/（Ru ＋ Ti ＋ Ce）O2 coatings was carried out. Results show that with the increase in the number of coating layers, the quality of morphology is improved.Then, the best quality of coatings is obtained at six layers on the titanium substrate with electrolyte including TiO2/RuO2/CeO2 with the molar ratio of 70：5：25 after heat treatment at 450 ℃ for 1 h. Besides,with the increase in Ce02 content from 5 wt% to 25 wt% and the number of coating layers, higher thickness of about（20.0±0.1） μm and minimum over potential for chlorine evolution were obtained.展开更多

The results show that the precursor was transformed gradually from amorphous to crystalline phase with temperature. When heat treated at 300 °C for 2h, RuO2·n H2O electrode surface gains mass of2.5 mg/cm2 with specific capacitance of 782 F/g. Besides, it is found that the specific capacitance of the film decreased by roughly20% with voltage scan rate increasing from 5 to 250 m V/s.展开更多

The effects of oxidation heat treatment and Co content on phase composition and microwave absorbing properties of NdFeCo magnetic powder were investigated by an X-ray diffractometer （XRD） and vector network analyzer. The minimum reflectivity of Nd23.25Fe36.75Co40 powder before oxidation heat treatment was 4.2 dB, and that of oxidized powder decreased to -14.0 dB. The microwave absorbing properties of NdFeCo magnetic powder could be improved effectively by oxidation heat treatment. With the increase of Co content, the Fe2O3 reduced and the Nd2O3 increased; Fe3CO7 phase appeared when the content of Co increased to 40% （mass ratio）; the absorption peak was found to move towards lower frequency region first, and then it moved towards a higher frequency region. Nd23.25Fe06.75Co10 powder had better comprehensive properties in absorbing microwave in the frequency band of 3-13 GHz. The value of minimum reflectivity and absorption peak frequency, when the coating thickness （d） was 1.8 mm, were -19.7 dB and 4.8 GHz, respectively.展开更多
