The effect of Y2O3 on the microstructure and wear resistance properties of the cobait-based alloys were investigated using an optical microscope, a scanning electron microscope （SEM）, X-ray diffraction （XRD）, and transmission electron microscopy （TEM）. It was found that a cobalt-based solid solution with a face-centered cubic crystal structure was presented accompanied by the secondary phase M7C3 with a hexagonal crystal structure in the Y2O3-free cobalt-based alloy coating. Several stacking faults exist in the cobalt-based solid solution. The addition of Y2O3 leads to the existence of the Y2O3 phase in the Y2O3-modified coatings. Though stacking fault exists in the Y2O3-modified coatings, its density increases. The addition of Y2O3 can refine the microstructure and can increase the wear resistance properties when its contents are less than or equal to 0.8 wt.%. However, further increase of its contents will lead to the agglomeration of undissolved Y2O3 particles at the γ-Co grain boundary, and will lead to a coarse microstructure and lower wear resistance properties.展开更多

The aging effect on the structureand wear resistance of the cobalt-based PTA coating was also studied. The results show that theas-welded coating consists of cobalt-based solid solution with face-centered cubic structure andhexagonal (Cr,Fe)_7C_3. There are a lot of stacking faults existing in the cobalt-based solidsolution. After aging at 600 deg C for 60 h, the microstructure becomes coarse, and another carbide(Cr,Fe)_(23)C_6 precipitates. As a result, the wear mass loss of the aged sample is higher than thatof the as-welded sample.展开更多

The relations among the composition of precursors, the property of alumina and the catalytic performance of supported catalysts were researched thoroughly.展开更多

Herein, cobalt-based hydroxide nanoparticles @ N-doping carbonic framework （CoOHCat@NCF） core-shell structures have been designed as highly stable and efficient OER/ORR bifunctional catalysts. The obtained composite shows enhanced catalytic activities and excellent stability in alkaline media. In the OER, a high turnover frequency （2.03 s^-1 at an overpotential of 0.36 V）, low overpotential at high current density （100 mA.cm-2 requiring an overpotential of 0.38 V）, and excellent stability （100 mA·cm^-2 for one week with no activity loss） have been achieved. Furthermore, although cobalt species-based catalysts are known as good ORR catalysts, their hybridization with NCF obtained from metal organic frameworks successfully enhanced their ORR activities. The efficient activity of CoOHCat@NCF as a bifunctional oxygen electrocatalyst can be ascribed to the core-shell structures stabilizing the active catalytic sites and the porous shell structure favoring electrocatalysis-related mass transport.展开更多

文摘Mo element was added to cobalt-based alloy L605,and cold forging deformation was performed.The effects of the addition and cold forging deformation on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the alloy were studied by thermodynamic calculation,electron backscatter diffraction,transmission electron microscopy,and X-ray diffraction.The stacking fault energy(SFE)of the alloy decreased after the addition,and the formation of stacking faults and intersections were promoted to improve the strength and hardness.The tensile strength of the alloy with Mo increased from 1190 to 1702 MPa after 24%cold deformation,producing significant work hardening.The strengthening mechanism is strain-induced martensitic transformation(SIMT)and deformation twinning.The alloy,combined with Mo and after 24%deformation,had both high strength and ductility in comparison with the original cobalt-based alloy L605.This is attributed to the lower SFE which caused the increase in stacking fault density.During the tensile process,theε-hcp phase was easily generated at the stacking fault to reduce the stress concentration and increase the ductility.Controlling SIMT by adjusting the density of stacking faults can improve the mechanical properties of cobalt-based alloys.Theε-hcp phase,the interaction between deformation twins and dislocations,and the interaction between e-hcp phases during cold forging deformation caused local stress concentration,lowering ductility and toughness.

文摘Cobalt-based alloys with different Y2O3 contents were deposited on Q235A-carbon steel using plasma transferred arc （PTA） welding machine. The effect of Y2O3 on the microstructure and wear resistance properties of the cobait-based alloys were investigated using an optical microscope, a scanning electron microscope （SEM）, X-ray diffraction （XRD）, and transmission electron microscopy （TEM）. It was found that a cobalt-based solid solution with a face-centered cubic crystal structure was presented accompanied by the secondary phase M7C3 with a hexagonal crystal structure in the Y2O3-free cobalt-based alloy coating. Several stacking faults exist in the cobalt-based solid solution. The addition of Y2O3 leads to the existence of the Y2O3 phase in the Y2O3-modified coatings. Though stacking fault exists in the Y2O3-modified coatings, its density increases. The addition of Y2O3 can refine the microstructure and can increase the wear resistance properties when its contents are less than or equal to 0.8 wt.%. However, further increase of its contents will lead to the agglomeration of undissolved Y2O3 particles at the γ-Co grain boundary, and will lead to a coarse microstructure and lower wear resistance properties.

文摘To improve the efficiency of cathodic oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)in zinc-air batteries(ZABs),an adsorption-complexation-calcination method was proposed to generate cobalt-based multicomponent nanoparticles comprising Co,Co_(3)O_(4)and CoN,as well as numerous N heteroatoms,on graphene nanosheets(Co/Co_(3)O_(4)/CoN/NG).The Co/Co_(3)O_(4)/CoN nanoparticles with the size of less than 50 nm are homogeneously dispersed on N-doped graphene(NG)substrate,which greatly improve the catalytic behaviors for ORR.The results show that the half-wave potential is as high as 0.80 V vs.RHE and the limiting current density is 4.60 mA·cm^(−2),which are close to those of commercially available platinum/carbon(Pt/C)catalysts.Applying as cathodic catalyst for ZABs,the battery shows large specific capacity and open circuit voltage of 843.0 mAh∙g^(−1) and 1.41 V,respectively.The excellent performance is attributed to the efficient two-dimensional structure with high accessible surface area and the numerous multiple active sites provided by highly scattered Co/Co_(3)O_(4)/CoN particles and doped nitrogen on the carbon matrix.
文摘The microstructure, substructure, and wear characteristic of cobalt-basedalloy coatings obtained by plasma transferred arc (PTA) process were investigated using opticalmetallurgical microscope, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmissionelectron microscope (TEM), and dry sand abrasion tester (DSAT). The aging effect on the structureand wear resistance of the cobalt-based PTA coating was also studied. The results show that theas-welded coating consists of cobalt-based solid solution with face-centered cubic structure andhexagonal (Cr,Fe)_7C_3. There are a lot of stacking faults existing in the cobalt-based solidsolution. After aging at 600 deg C for 60 h, the microstructure becomes coarse, and another carbide(Cr,Fe)_(23)C_6 precipitates. As a result, the wear mass loss of the aged sample is higher than thatof the as-welded sample.

文摘Conversion of carbon dioxide(CO_(2))into valuable chemicals and renewable fuels via photocatalysis represents an eco-friendly route to achieve the goal of carbon neutralization.Although various types of semiconductor materials have been intensively explored,some severe issues,such as rapid charge recombination and sluggish redox reaction kinetics,remain.In this regard,cocatalyst modifi cation by trapping charges and boosting surface reactions is one of the most effi cient strategies to improve the effi ciency of semiconductor photocatalysts.This review focuses on recent advances in CO_(2)photoreduction over costeff ective and earth-abundant cobalt(Co)-based cocatalysts,which are competitive candidates of noble metals for practical applications.First,the functions of Co-based cocatalysts for promoting photocatalytic CO_(2)reduction are briefl y discussed.Then,diff erent kinds of Co-based cocatalysts,including cobalt oxides and hydroxides,cobalt nitrides and phosphides,cobalt sulfi des and selenides,Co single-atom,and Co-based metal–organic frameworks(MOFs),are summarized.The underlying mechanisms of these Co-based cocatalysts for facilitating CO_(2)adsorption–activation,boosting charge separation,and modulating intermediate formation are discussed in detail based on experimental characterizations and density functional theory calculations.In addition,the suppression of the competing hydrogen evolution reaction using Co-based cocatalysts to promote the product selectivity of CO_(2)reduction is highlighted in some selected examples.Finally,the challenges and future perspectives on constructing more effi cient Co-based cocatalysts for practical applications are proposed.

文摘The present work investigates the thermal stability and mechanical properties of a Co-20 Cr-15 W-10 Ni(wt%) alloy with a bimodal grain(BG) structure.The BG structure consisting of fine grains(FGs) and coarse grains(CGs) is thermally stable under high-temperature exposure treatments of 760℃ for 100 h and 870℃ for 100-1000 h.The size of both FGs and CGs remains no significant changes after thermal exposure treatments.The microstructural stability is associated with the slow kinetics of grain growth and the pinning of carbides.The thermal stability enables to maintain the BG structures,leading to the same mechanical properties as the sample without thermal exposure treatment.In particular,the BG alloy samples after thermal exposure treatment exhibit superior mechanical properties of both high strength and high ductility compared to the unimodal grain(UG) structured ones.The BG structure of the alloy samples after thermal exposure is capable of avoiding severe loss of ductility and retaining high strength.More specifically,the ductility of the BG alloy samples after thermal exposure treatments of 870℃ for 500-1000 h is ten times higher(44.6% vs.3.5% and 52.6% vs.5.0%) than that of the UG ones.The finding in the present work may give new insights into high-temperature applications of the Co-20 Cr-15 W-10 Ni alloy and other metallic materials with a BG structure.

文摘Fabrication of selective adsorption coatings plays a crucial role in solid-phase microextraction(SPME).Herein,new strategies were developed for the in-situ fabrication of novel cobalt-based carbonaceous coatings on the nickel-titanium alloy(Ni Ti)fiber substrate using ZIF-67 as a precursor and template through the chemical reaction of ZIF-67 with glucose,dopamine(DA)and melamine,respectively.The adsorption performance of the resulting coatings was evaluated using representative aromatic compounds coupled to high-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)with ultraviolet detection(HPLC-UV).The results clearly demonstrated that the adsorption selectivity was subject to the surface elemental composition of the fiber coatings.The cobalt and nitrogen co-doped carbonaceous coating showed better adsorption selectivity for ultraviolet filters.In contrast,the cobalt-doped carbonaceous coating exhibited higher adsorption selectivity for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.The fabricated fibers present higher mechanical stability and higher adsorption capability for model analytes than the commercial polydimethylsiloxane and polyacrylate fibers.These new strategies will continue to expand the Ni Ti fibers as versatile fiber substrates for metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)-derived coating materials with controllable nanostructures and tunable properties.
文摘The hot extrusion die is a key tool for determining the surface quality and dimensional accuracy of extruded products.Because its service process is subject to high temperature,high pressure,and wear,it must be resistant to these conditions.In this paper,the high-temperature friction and wear properties of a cobalt(Co)-based alloy were investigated and compared with those of a titanium carbide(TiC)cemented material.The results show that the high-temperature wear performance of the Co-based alloy is better than that of the TiC cemented material,and that Co-based materials have the potential for replacing TiC cemented materials as hot-extrusion-die materials.Due to the high density and good combination of the matrix and carbide,the carbides do not easily peel off from the matrix during the wear process.Due to the higher impact toughness of the Co-based alloys,microcracks that can cause worn-surface peeling are not easily generated.As a result,the high-temperature wear performance of Co-based alloys is found to be better than that of TiC cemented materials.

文摘The corrosion resistance of cobalt-based alloy cladding layers is crucial for the long-term reliability of materials in the nuclear power industry,where they are exposed to highly aggressive environmental conditions.A major challenge to their performance is the corrosion occurring at phase boundaries under harsh operating conditions.This study investigates the effects of pulsed magnetic field treatment(PMT)on improving corrosion resistance at phase boundaries,specifically at the carbide/matrix Co interface,and seeks to clarify the underlying mechanisms.Advanced characterization techniques,including scanning electron microscopy(SEM),in situ transmission electron microscopy(TEM),in situ scanning kelvin probe force microscopy(SKPFM),and density functional theory(DFT)calculations,were employed.PMT samples exhibited no interface corrosion cracking or carbide spalling and showed a significant reduction in corrosion depth.TEM analysis revealed reduced lattice distortion at phase boundaries and a partial transformation of face-centered cubic(FCC)Co to hexagonal closepacked(HCP)Co.The enhanced corrosion resistance at phase boundaries is attributed to changes in the electronic work function(EWF),as determined by SKPFM measurements and DFT calculations.

文摘The development of highly efficient and earth-abundant oxygen evolution/ reduction reaction （OER/ORR） catalysts is essential for rechargeable metal-air batteries. Herein, cobalt-based hydroxide nanoparticles @ N-doping carbonic framework （CoOHCat@NCF） core-shell structures have been designed as highly stable and efficient OER/ORR bifunctional catalysts. The obtained composite shows enhanced catalytic activities and excellent stability in alkaline media. In the OER, a high turnover frequency （2.03 s^-1 at an overpotential of 0.36 V）, low overpotential at high current density （100 mA.cm-2 requiring an overpotential of 0.38 V）, and excellent stability （100 mA·cm^-2 for one week with no activity loss） have been achieved. Furthermore, although cobalt species-based catalysts are known as good ORR catalysts, their hybridization with NCF obtained from metal organic frameworks successfully enhanced their ORR activities. The efficient activity of CoOHCat@NCF as a bifunctional oxygen electrocatalyst can be ascribed to the core-shell structures stabilizing the active catalytic sites and the porous shell structure favoring electrocatalysis-related mass transport.

文摘With the rapid economic growth and the deepening awareness of sustainable development,the demand for green and efficient energy storage equipment increases.As a promising energy storage and conversion device,zinc-air batteries(ZABs)have the advantages of high theoretical specific energy density,low cost,and environmental friendliness.Nevertheless,the efficiency of ZABs is closely related to the electrocatalytic capacity of the air electrode due to its sluggish kinetics for oxygen reduction and evolution reaction(ORR/OER).Therefore,it is necessary to develop efficient catalysts to promote the reaction rate.Recently,cobalt-based materials have become a research hotspot for oxygen electrocatalysts owing to their rich natural content,high catalytic activity,and stability.In this review,the mechanisms of the OER/ORR reaction process,the catalyst's performance characterization,and the various combination methods with the current collector are systematically introduced and analyzed.Further,a broad overview of cobalt-based materials used as electrocatalysts for ZABs is presented,including cobalt-based perovskite,cobalt-nitrogen-carbon(Co-N-C)materials,cobalt oxides,cobalt-containing composite oxides,and cobalt sulfides/phosphides.Finally,various strategies for developing efficient electrocatalysts for ZABs are summarized,highlighting the challenges and future perspectives in designing novel catalysts.

文摘A cobalt-based catalyst was directly photo-deposited on the surface of a widely used n-type nano-structured semiconductor(TiO_(2)).Different thicknesses of the TiO 2 films as well as different time of photo-deposition of the Co-based catalyst on TiO_(2) films have been optimized.It was found that the electrode with 3 layers of TiO_(2) film(in 8 m thickness) and 1 hour photo-deposition of the cobalt-based catalyst by light irradiation from a 500 W Xenon lamp gave the highest current density(~5 mA/cm^(2)).Using this cobalt-modified TiO_(2) film as a working electrode in an electrochemical device,highly efficient water oxidation has been demonstrated in a pH 7.0 aqueous solution with low overpotential.

文摘Aprotic lithium-oxygen(Li-O_(2))batteries represent a promising next-generation energy storage system due to their extremely high theoretical specific capacity compared with all known batteries.Their practical realization is impeded,however,by the sluggish kinetics for the most part,resulting in high overpotential and poor cycling performance.Due to the high catalytic activity and favorable stability of Co-based transition metal oxides,they are regarded as the most likely candidate catalysts,facilitating researchers to solve the sluggish kinetics issue.Herein,this review first presents recent advanced design strategies for Co-based transition metal oxides in Li-O_(2)batteries.Then,the fundamental insights related to the catalytic processes of Co-based transition metal oxides in traditional and novel Li-O_(2)electrochemistry systems are summarized.Finally,we conclude with the current limitations and future development directions of Co-based transition metal oxides,which will contribute to the rational design of catalysts and the practical applications of Li-O_(2)batteries.
